Following widespread negative media reports on holiday park customer abuse, Holiday Park Advice Centre steps forward to claim financial compensation for those who have lost money
Industry wide abuse
The holiday park industry has been under intense journalistic scrutiny over the past couple of years. Aggressive and dishonest sales operations have been reported on, as have unfair fees and monopolistic practices.
Holiday park customer after customer has come forward with harrowing tales of lost fortunes and ruined lives. Their experiences have been shared on TV, radio, printed and online media.
It is not just smaller operators under the spotlight. Large, ‘family friendly’ brand names like Parkdean Resorts, Haven and Park Holidays have all been accused of a broad range of unfair practices.
