Just wanted to share a heads up - I checked Trustpilot to see if Mini Break Away was legit, and honestly, lots of people flagged it as a scam. Definitely do your research before booking anything with them!

Got a call saying I'd won some holiday competition, but turns out none of these firms are listed with the ICO or any government agency. They don't follow data protection rules at all. Definitely just a massive con! Make sure to block these numbers and if you've dealt with them, drop a review on Trustpilot. I've already reported it to fraud action. Stay careful everyone!

Stay clear of britishbreakaways and minibreakaway.co.uk. They’re just scammers taking people’s cash and trying to peddle stuff they’ve got no business selling. I’ve seen reports about them for cybercrime and bogus ads on Instagram. Seriously, don’t get involved with these lot.

a bloke named sam left me a voicemail saying i'd won second place in some instagram comp, but the catch was i had to cover breakfast at any hotel i wanted. he rang from one number but told me to ring back on another. said it was a short lived deal or something. sounded a bit dodgy to me.

Have you had any further contact with them? I got duped as well and ended up sending them some cash. I can’t believe I was so gullible!

Got a message from someone called William saying I’ve won a holiday via Instagram - but I never even joined any contest, so I’m pretty sure it’s a load of rubbish!

Got a call saying I’d won a holiday from Mini-Breakaway on Instagram, said I was the runner-up. The original number was 01913592862 and they asked me to ring this number back: 08000705135. Seems a bit dodgy to me.

I received an email claiming I had won a holiday and was instructed to call a specific number to secure my prize, but only if I did so today, or else I'd forfeit the opportunity. Shortly after, I was contacted by the number 03303503401. However, when I spoke to the woman on the line, she couldn't verify the original number I was given to call back. The company's name is minibreakaway. Quite the kerfuffle, if you ask me!

I got a voicemail from someone saying I’d won a holiday, they wanted me to call them back. Pretty sure it’s one of those dodgy prize scams.

I got called by Promotional Holidays like 3 times within an hour! Told them the second time I didn’t want any cheap holiday deals, especially after reading bad reviews on Tripadvisor, but they just wouldn’t let it go. They even rang me again to argue, which was super annoying and rude.
