A question about : Beware of changegroup, you may lose all your money!

Beware of the company 'Changegroup' they offer the best rates for delivery on Euros, even 'Free Supersaver' postage.

If you do not pay the optional Ј7.99 insurance you may lose ALL your money!

A question about : We made a very expensive mistake

Just a word of warning. We made a very costly error when booking our flights to Salzburg. We fly out for our ski holiday this Saturday 21st Feb and return a week later on 28th Feb. The tickets were booked 4 months ago.

My wife was printing off the boarding passes and noticed in horror that we had booked the return flights for March 28th in error.

I know that this is our fault but it is so our of character for us. We have booked many flights over the years and something like this is unheard of for us.

A question about : Any Australian Dollar Prepaid card recommendations?

Does anyone have any positive experiences of using a prepaid cashcard in Australia? We're planning to use a card in place of a debit/credit card (so for over the counter purchases and ATM withdrawals).

All of the review sites we have been looking at seem focused on experiences of cards in Euro countries or America. We have been a bit put off by some reviews describing cards failing, meaning that cash becomes inaccessible.

Some positive stories would be really helpful in making a decision!

A question about : Best way to spend in Belize?

I have a Clarity credit card. My plan was to pay for as much stuff on the card as possible, and overpay it and use it to withdraw cash while I'm there.

A question about : Cheap flight website

As a family we are off to Spain in August and I promised to do an internet trawl and find best return flights from North of England to Alicante.
After hours of trawling a variety of sites, I concluded that Glasgow International to Alicante, on Saturday August 1st, return August 8th, would be the most economical.
I was pleased to find Travel Supermarket's price of Ј207.90 inc.,taxes(even though initially,based on last Summer,we hoped to pay no more than Ј175).
