I wasn't aware of the website or the magazine!



Had a quick look at the mortgage section and there is no Best Buys Table.

No mention of Avant or Finance Ireland.

And they give Ulster Bank as an option, which really should be only a lender of last resort.

You can find almost all the information in that guide for free online. Might be decent for some people but I wouldn't pay for it personally.

Hi Alkers

But you could say that about a lot of books.

If it is well organised and systematic, it might be well worth the price.
