bloody Easyjet

[ramtops]

off to Glasgow in May, as per earlier message. Easyjet' s prices are cheap, but their site is horrible.

they don't clean the credit/debit card number, so if it has spaces in when you cut and paste it, it will silently drop the last three digits, then fail the authorisation. Then it tells you to back and correct it, but the javascript doesn't reload properly. Pah.

and *then*, it will charge a surcharge for credit card use, or a lesser one for debit card use; FFS - it's an *online payment* system. How else can we pay? That's just dishonest, and I hate it. And lets not touch on the airport tax - I bet it's not really a conveniently round tenner a person.

bastards. But still, Glasgow here we come :)

That's absolutely outrageous. The cost to them of a Credit card is say, 5% of the transaction. The cost to them of a debit card is 40p. To charge as much as they're doing warrants a referral to Trading Standards.
