The company went bust holding money from many people. The lesson is to never believe those fake reviews they ask you to do a second after you buy something and have no idea how it is going to end.

Maybe because I'm new....
I like the prizes of course, different opportunities in one place, UK based, all positive. I understand I can buy to win 'upgrades' but not sure for which competition just yet. I needed to ask for help to find which draw my money had gone into, and I was helped almost immediately via email.

We live for memories, & what a memory this could be :)
So came across BOOM Holidays on Facebook, i had a quick look at reviews and some seemed a little concerning, but then I see the winners and had a look at site a little more, and decided to enter, went with a small ticket option, as I figured the price reasonable, and the opportunity to win an amazing holiday for me and my family. Like lots of people we live for memories and holidays are the most amazing places to make them :). I probably won’t win, but I like the idea that I could. So my fingers are crossed. The site is offering the chance of a holidays of a life time. Exciting Time

Glad I took the time to read the reviews
Just look at the reply’s from this company, exactly the same long message. Thank you to all the genuine people who left their honest, 1 star reviews.
Now in response to your message to me Boom
Your seemingly unjustified reply is hurtful to me as it doesn’t appear to be based on a bad personal experience.
We can all copy and paste the same rubbish, stop ripping off people

Hi Paul, we’re sorry you felt you had to leave a negative review. It seems you’ve read the early reviews left on our page from when we were just launching BOOM! Holidays and where we encountered a couple of early teething problems.These reviews are not a true reflection of BOOM! Holidays as a business and since we launched our team has been working tirelessly around the clock to ensure our customers receive the best possible experience from us. Your seemingly unjustified review is hurtful to us as it doesn’t appear to be based on a bad personal experience, but based on previous problems we encountered that we’ve later corrected and come out the other side much stronger as a result. We take our relationship with our customers very seriously, a good customer relationship is one of the things we pride ourselves on as a business. Since launching in June, we’ve given away over £100,000 worth of holiday prizes. For example, Jim has already been on his holiday to Barcelona with his partner, Clive is off to New York on November 12th, Jo-Anne is off to Paris with her family in December and Emily is off to Orlando with her kids in February. We’d encourage you to take a look at our previous winners page - https://www.boom-holidays.com/blogs/previous-winners and also see the more recent reviews from our happy customers across August. Once again we’re very sorry you felt the need to respond in this way, hopefully this message clarifies things for you now, but if not, we apologise for your experience and wish you all the best :)
ENTER NOW!!!!
Well, I definitely can’t give any less than 5 stars - I’d give more if I could!!
I’m not one to enter many competitions and am a huge sceptic not believing real people really win these prizes, but how wrong I was!
Entered on a whim, last minute and it turned out to be the best £8.50 I have ever spent!!!!
I watched the live draw and really could not believe it when my name was called as the grand prize winner!!!!!
Of course there was always a little doubt in my mind as to wether this is real, but within 24 hours Jenny from Prizeshark had called me, put my mind at rest and I already had booking details!
Can’t wait for our trip, Boom! has really changed our life, coming just at the right time. My only advice would be to buy your entries now!!!

A fun and engaging team
A fun and engaging team, who are making dreams come true. Ive taken part in 2 draws so far. Both winners were so happy, they were called on the facebook live to share their bliss with everyone watching. The lives are chatty and full of buzz. Everyone is really excited and they like to take ideas from the comments to improve or have fun. I will continue to play, and join in 🥰 well done guys. X

BOOM Holidays!
I came across BOOM holidays whilst browsing through Facebook. At first, I was not sure what it was all about but after taking a look further and applying for the Orlando giveaway I quickly realised how much of a good opportunity this was for me to not have a go. I only signed up for the lower entries but still tuned into the live to see who the winner was. I found the engagement really good and everyone cheered each other on which was fab. Jamie and Adele were really good with everyone and answered their questions via the iPad a fair bit. I found the experience quite exciting, just gutted I didn't win :)

The most magical experience Ever!
I would just love to say, what a fantastic, professional and trustworthy company Boom Holidays are!!!
I spent £10 on my tickets and joined to watch the live draw at 7pm on Sunday 6th August 2023 and what a £10 well spent as I won (little old me) a magical trip to Disneyland Paris for my family!!
We are on complete cloud nine thanks to Boom Holidays!
I just want to thank you so much from the bottom of my heart I will always be eternally grateful for this wonderful memory you have made for me in winning this prize and also the future memories that I get to make with my family on our magical trip to Disneyland Paris!!
I have been contacted within a day of winning my prize to start arranging and planning our dream prize and the staff have just simply been AMAZING!!
If I can win one of Boom Holidays fabulous holiday give aways so can you!!
You honestly will not regret entering into a Boom Holidays competition it could totally be you winning the next wonderful get away.
Thankyou to everyone at Boom!!!
A company that makes dreams come true.

Hello Adrienn,
We would like to personally apologise for the bad experience that you have experienced. Although we are a new company, I can personally assure you that we are 100% genuine and have a team of over 30 people, all highly experienced in the industry, and we have also employed high level specialist legal advisors to ensure we are 100% compliant on all fronts. We use a ticket model similar to Omaze where each ticket option buys you a number of entries with various savings at each tier. This is clearly advertised throughout our website and it appears this has not been fully understood prior to purchase. We have already given away our first holiday to New York on 9th July and the Winner has already booked their trip and travels on the 12th November this year and we have now given away our next holiday to Barcelona on Sunday 23rd July and then a family holiday to Disneyland Paris awaits the winner on 6th August. Whilst we are a new business, we always need customers to fully understand the differences between our own model and those of other competition websites before they purchase and start to make damaging assumptions. It is unfortunate that you have already felt the need to post an awful 1-star review before we have had the chance to fully explain our business model to you and reassure you around any questions you may have. This is extremely damaging to the business as we build our profile and business reputation and educate potential customers on how our model works. Unfortunately due your multiple negative comments on our Facebook page we have had no option but to remove you as a user as these comments are untrue, unfounded and damaging to our business. I would strongly urge you to stay connected with BOOM! Holidays and see how we have learned from our customers comments and are a business that always seeks to improve and evolve to provide an unrivalled online and customer/winner experience. Best regards.
Nothing legitimate about boom holidays
Nothing legitimate about boom holidays. Ticket look great but 125 tickets count as one. Please don't be conned. Live was a shambles at best as it cut out at the winners search. All reviews except for the bad ones are all new profiles. One a new profiles as a TV presenter ( i dont think so and new). Three that review are overseas and new. Uk ones new profiles as well. Avoid like the plague.
I've been blocked from there Facebook for having made this observation. I wants my money back.
Please be aware that other people who have given bad reviews have been blocked from their Facebook.
This is a uk run competition site with oversea reviewers. Please see the questions and answers section. t's not a way to run a business. Please explain the TV presenter who has left a review. This is false advertising and unethical.
See section from this
As long as you are over the age of 18 years and live in Great Britain then you qualify for entry to any of our holiday prize draws or holiday competitions
Lots of very unhappy customer who are banned for speaking up.

Hello Michelle,
Many thanks for getting in contact. I am one of the Directors here at BOOM! Holidays and I would like to personally apologise for the bad experience that you have experienced. Although we are a new company, I can personally assure you that we are 100% genuine and have a team of over 30 people, all highly experienced in the industry, and we have also employed high level specialist legal advisors to ensure we are 100% compliant on all fronts. We use a highly reputable internationally based reviews agency and they have assured me their processes are 100% compliant and there is nothing untowards in their methods around securing new reviews for us and I fully trust their reputation and experience in this area. We use a ticket model similar to Omaze where each ticket option buys you a number of entries with various savings at each tier. This is clearly advertised throughout our website and it appears this has not been fully understood prior to purchase. We have already given away our first holiday to New York on 9th July and the Winner has already booked their trip and travels on the 12th November this year and we will be giving away our next holiday to Barcelona this Sunday 23rd July and then a family holiday to Disneyland Paris awaits the winner on 6th August.
