Just used CompareandSave to arrange for some money to go abroad as part of a property deal I'm doing. The rates I was offered through the CompareandSave money transfer table/panel were considerably better than my own bank were offering me. In fact, I think I have saved around £300. The simplest money I've ever made!

Like many people, I hadn't heard a thing about the new government initiative to force banks to allow customers to leave in 7 days! I think I've spent longer on hold to a certain three letter tv supplier than that, so when I heard about it on Compare-And-Save I jumped at the chance of ditching my excuse for a bank (who my mum forced me to go with when I was 14). 7 (business) days later I'm ready to face 2015 with the account I deserve. Interest on balances, no crazy overdraft charges and a bank that answers the phone! I just wish I'd done it sooner! Thanks Compare-And-Save x

Got a new bank account through compare and save last week and it's perfect. All the info to make the choice was laid out simply and straightforwardly. I'd certainly use them again.

I needed to get a new credit card, as my balance transfer period was ending. Tried a couple of sites but they all looked so complicated and I could not figure out which one was best for me. After a quick search I ended up on compareandsave.com - and I found my salvation!Apart from having a wide selection of cards they also had very useful information per card whch made my decision so much easier. After a small search through their pages I found the perfect card applied in a few easy steps, I got accepted within seconds and within a few days my brand new credit card arrived! It could not have been easier than that! I would recomend this site to anyone looking for a new credit card.

I have a relatively bad credit score and since I have been promoted and have some extra cash I decided to try and correct it by getting an appropriate credit card. After researching for some time I discovered compareandsave, which proved to be very helpful. They had the largest variety of credit building cards I found in one single site and several limited offers (I always like it when I get the opportunity to get something cheaper that its usual price!). I even found a very helpful blog entry in this webpage explaining what credit building cards are as well as a brief overview of the current UK credit building credit card market, which facilitated my decision on a single card. The blog was from April 2012 and was called “Under the Hood of Credit Building Cards”. Eventually I chose the capital one classic extra card. I was accepted immediately and was notified about it. I received my card a couple of days ago and I m very happy.

Lately I have been doing a lot of online shopping and I was trying to identify the best type of credit card to use in order to facilitate my payments; as I have been using a prepaid card so far (only for online shopping). I have been using a prepaid card for security reasons, but my card empties before I know it and I have to refill it every time, which is annoying and time consuming. Additionally some of my payments won’t go through because I’m one pound or two short. I have good credit and I usually repay my monthly balances in full (on my other credit cards), so I decided to go and look for a credit card that would be appropriate for online use and additionally provide some benefits (for its use). During my long search I stumbled upon this website – compareandsave – which proved to be very helpful. Apart from reading several different blog articles that informed me about the proper use of different credit card types, I also managed to compare and find the right credit card for me! I chose the Halifax all in one because it included online fraud cover (exactly what I needed to overcome my security issues). So far everything has gone smoothly, I applied got accepted and received my card. The website itself is very nice, has a cheerful green colour, it is really easy to use and navigate through and lastly has a very nice and broad variety of credit cards. I’ll definitely use it again in the future and will recommend it to my friends.

I was wondering for some time whether I was paying to much for my internet connection so I decided to look it up online. After researching a bit I came across Compare and Save! Using the website was rather straightforward, I just enter my postcode and my broadband/phone/tv requirements. I actually wanted to see all available offer so I entered the corresponding values. I quickly realized that my suspicion was correct I was paying too much!! After reviewing all the available offers I choose the one that suited me and applied for it,after it was identified that the service could be provided at my post code.Everything was simple and straightforward. While looking for my broadband I noticed that I could check my utilities bills as well, just by entering my current monthly bills and my supplier I could see how much i could save every year by applying to another provider! Of course I switched! And whats even better is that I only entered my details online and the whole procedure was done by the company!! How convenient is that?

As Christmas and New Years were approaching I was trying to figure out how to buy my kids gifts, since I was almost out of cash - and I came across this blog article on compareandsave.com - hit the sales with the top plastic. Finally someone made clear how I should go about buying my gifts! Not only did they provide me with different types of cards that I could use, but also suggested the best card from each type as well as information for efficient use. It was very easy after that to select the card I wanted. What's even better - through the same website I could compare my selected card type from different banks and choose the one I needed. Their tables were straightforward, informative and clear. If a require any additional financial products I will definitely go back to compareandsave! Thank you for making me able to buy my kids gifts this year!

I'm new to reviewing things but I thought I ought to mention and recommend the good experience I had a couple of weeks ago with the Compare & Save website. Having struggled to compare products whilst walking around various bank branches in town the other week I went online (at my daughter insistence) and found all the information I needed. The actual decision was easy as Barclays-cards were giving away 2 years at 0% apr and £30 back and a free monkey toy (which I give my grand daughter), but the way they showcase the products and benefits within their portal very useful and had I needed to go deeper into product facets I'm could see the detail was there. I would happily recommend them to anyone who doesn't fancy traipsing around town of a wet and windy weekend!

Just done my bi-annual balance switch after getting some promo letters in the post offering some supposedly "great deals". Great my A... (you know the rest!) - just a quick Google search for 'best credit cards' bought me to Compare & Save - a little star of a website. Luckily I was in a position to get their top deal - a Barclays Card with the lowest transfer admin fee in the market and 30 quid back! I can't remember every transferer card I've had in the past, but this certainly ranks amongst the best. I think last time I switched I only got 16 months - this time 23! Hopefully this time I'll actually by it off, but I know were to come back if I don't :-)

When looking for a new balance transfer credit card deal, I found this website very easy to use. All the competing products are laid out in a crystal clear and logical fashion which makes picking the right one an easy-peasy! There are other similar sites out there, but this is certainly my favourite.

What a bangin' result - I've managed to sort my finances recently so I no longer have to pay off my balance every month, so I started to look about for something else. Came across this little gem of a website at the top of the Google listing and I've managed to apply for (and get) a new 5% cashback card from capital 1. I didn't even think I'd get it because I missed a payment about a year ago, but what'dya'know - in the bag!

I just thought I'd write a quick review of this website as they've saved me a packet. I naively thought that because I was loyal to my bank that they'd give me a good credit card deal - and when I checked a few years ago I'm sure I had. I now feel a little bit silly (to say the least). I should have followed the advice in the Compare And Save guide and shopped around. Using the calculator on the website it looks like I'll actually save about £250 a year - which seems crazy to me as we're actually creating more waste (plastic cards etc - so it can't actually be cheaper).

I just got a new prepaid card to replace my old one now I've switched mobile network (from O2). I found these guys on Google when I search for the best prepaid card. They had all the ones that money supermarket and u-switch had as well as a couple of good one's that weren't even on anyone Else's websites so I've got an Orange card for free!

I have used a number of these comparison engine websites over the years and never been 100% satisfied with any of them, but my son recommended compareandsave after he had found an Orange pre-payment card that wasn't on any of the other websites. Surprisingly I was very impressed. They obviously don't spend a fortune on TV advertising because I thought it was the awful Meerkat to start with, but it looks like time and effort is given to making (often complex) information accessible to make it easy for you to pick the best product for you. I'm very happy and I'll certainly be passing on the recommendation myself - Grade A.

I have had bad credit against my name for the last three years and had been struggling to get a credit card. I was visiting my dad to ask him for a favour as I needed to purchase a laptop and I knew that with my credit history I would not be allowed an account. My mum happened to be at home that day and as I asked them both she suggested I try using a site called compare and save. I had never heard of them but she mentioned my cousin had used them as she was also in a similar situation as myself. To cut the story short I looked them up and found that they did credit cards for people with bad credit or those who wanted to build their credit rating. It was amazing and they had a variety of cards to choose from. I decided on the Capital One Classic card. It took a minute to apply and got an instant decision. I am now on my way to re-building my credit rate and I could not have done it without the compare and save website. I would recommend this site to anyone in a similar position.

Much to my own disgust; I've been very bad at managing my finances over the past few years. I pay my bills (I'm not that bad), but I never look at them and what they are for, but the other day I checked my credit card statement (first time I've opened that in over a year) to discover that most of what I'm paying every month is interest! I don't consider myself to be an idiot and I know that credit cards rates can be high, but I had no idea what it actually meant for paying off bills. At the current rate it'll take me about 40 years to pay of my debt! I have now tackled the problem and I'm aiming to pay off in about 2 years (with the help of my new balance transfer credit card). After looking at a couple of confusing sites I eventually came across CompareAndSave which was great. A very modern and easy to understand website with information display in clear and informative manner. I even discovered that I could get a card that had the same transfer length as purchases rate so those incidental expenses I've always added to my credit card won't cripple me any more. Fingers crossed I have now dealt with the elephant in the room of my finances and I can start to build a nest egg in the not to distant future.
