Advantages: huge range of events
Disadvantages: a bit slow

...www.tickets-online.co.uk is the online service that the Wayahead Box Office runs. When you first see the site the first thing that will stand out is the colours, they are a nice rich blue, red and grey (this certainly makes the site stand out). They have the usually disclaimers and copyright notices on the first page along with phone and fax numbers if you don?t want to order on-line. Generally this site is very easy to navigate and on the main page you can search for the gig, show or event you want to go to. The criteria that you can search for are; Artist, Town/City, Start Date or End Date. There is a side bar on the web site labelled ?Search By?; under this there are numerous categories. These are; Region, New Events, Best Sellers, Rock, Dance, Classical, Theatre, Pop, Club, Comedy, Special Events, Motor Racing ? Cars, Motor...

Booking tickets online with Indian Railways

Advantages: Once you work out what to do it's pretty easy
Disadvantages: It can take a long time to work out what to do

...Broadly speaking, I think that there are three reasons to write reviews. There are those I write for the site members, those I write for myself and those I write to fill a gap on the internet. This review is unapologetically in that third group of 'public service' writing - things I think need to be written about but don't actually expect many members will find personally very useful. I don't think it would be presumptuous of me to say that relatively few members will want to use the service that I'm going to describe but the world wide web is probably bursting with people who had the same problems that I did and will hopefully find this review useful. Relax, it's not about anything embarrassing like piles or impotence - my review today is about booking Indian train tickets, a feat so difficult that it's no wonder Hannibal chose...

GALLOPING ONLINE WITH THE BLACK HORSE

Advantages: Track account movements and transfer instantly between accounts. Apply for e-savngs account.
Disadvantages: Access code device doesn't work overseas

... GALLOPING ONLINE WITH THE BLACK HORSE I have been banking with Lloyds Bank (now LloydsTSB) for a long time. For the last eight or nine years, most of my transactions have been online. I had a few worries when Lloyds Bank and the TSB (Trustee Savings Bank) merged, but it didn?t seem to affect customer service as much as I had expected, and my loyalty seemed to be still appreciated. In 1999 I was introduced to the internet, and I had my first e-mail address. I'm not quite sure when LloydsTSB started offering internet banking, but I was quick to take advantage of it. I was sent a user ID number in the post, and I chose my own password. I had to choose a memorable phrase of which three characters would be selected at random (such as the fifth, ninth and eleventh). Drop-down menus of letters and numbers ensured...

Way Ahead Of The Competition

Advantages: Fast and Reliable service, extensive range of gigs and artists
Disadvantages: None that I can think of.

...In the last year or so, I have bought concert tickets online on three separate occasions, on each occasion tickets-online.co.uk proved highly reliable. tickets-online.co.uk are basically the online part of the ticket company WayAhead who many people may be aware of. An area where I have found them to be most useful is concerning the purchase of tickets for big name artists such as Robbie Williams. I am far from a Williams fan, but knowing my best friend to be, decided to buy her a ticket to see him around the time of her birthday. I woke up at 9am that morning and found it to be impossible to get through on phone.. The thought struck me to try online and within 5 minutes the tickets were booked through tickets-online.co.uk. The site seems fairly quick and secure in comparison to other online ticket specialists and the range of bands...

Advantages: Free delivery and returns!
Disadvantages: None That I can think of!

...The littlewoods site can be accessed using the address www.littlewoods-online.co.uk. SImple! When the page comes up, ususally a pop up advertisement appears too. Dont immediately close it, as they sometimes have a super special offer, that you dont see anyhwere else.! At the moment it is advertising the sale on branded products!. To use te site you have to be A) a littlewoods customer and B) registered to use the online facility. If you are not just fill in the relevant forms and hey presto!

Halifax Online Banking

Advantages: Handy to keep an eye on your account
Disadvantages: none so far

...After having problems with my previous bank, I decided to open an account with halifax, this was about five years ago.

Other services available at Halifax Credit cards Mortgages Personnel loans Savings and Investments Insurance Share Dealing However I basically use my account as a savings account and dont have any Shares or Credit cards through Halifax.

I've got a golden ticket

Advantages: Very Yummy Chocolate!
Disadvantages: No Golden Ticket for me!

...‘Cause I’ve got a golden ticket, I’ve got a golden chance to make my way, And with a golden ticket, It’s a golden day!!! Every time I open one of these Wonka golden ticket chocolate bars I wish I could suddenly leap up and start singing around the room with my granddad! Oh well, no such luck yet, I’ll have to keep trying. Still at 40p from our vending machine at school, I think they are especially good value. Background to bar ----------------- The Wonka Golden Ticket Chocolate bar is produced by Nestle, and is obviously a spin off from the famous Roald Dahl story, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Again, like the ticket in the book, a tour round a famous chocolate factory is the grand prize! However, the Nestle version is a tour round a more conventional chocolate factory, a.k.a. The Nestle...

HSBC - Online Banking

Advantages: Saves lots of time
Disadvantages: Very few

...I have had a current account with the HSBC for many years and have not had any problems or hassles that I can think of, I know that many of you will have had bad experiences for one reason or another but I have not. My main moan however is that over the last couple of years it has become increasingly difficult to contact my branch or to see someone in person as most branches only open a few hours a day and now even the two main branches where I live are no longer staffed on Saturdays. As I both work full time Monday to Fridays and I also have my own business I was finding it ever more difficult to get to a branch and so when I was told about their online banking facility I decided to give it a go. Of course I had the usual concerns about security but a friend had recommended the online banking to me and I was assured that in the event...

Attraction Tickets Direct To Your Door

Advantages: Prices, Fast Delivery, Various Payment Methods
Disadvantages: None I Can Think Of

...Woohoo I'm the first to review something lol :) I have purcahsed my tickets for Florida theme parks and dinner shows from this website on two occasions now and they have not let me down in any way. They are the UK's No. 1 Broker for Florida Attraction Tickets. They will beat any brochure price and have a price promise, which basically states if you find your tickets cheaper anywhere they will refund the difference to you. They explain this is more detail if you click the price promise rosette on their page which is not hard to miss as its bright red. They issue actual real theme park tickets NOT vouchers or E-tickets (you do however get vouchers for dinner shows with very easy instructions on how to use - basically just emailing the company to reserve seats). They have no credit card fees and no hidden extras. You...
