Advantages: Easy to search and find answers on, weekly email with latest money news

Disadvantages: I'm addicted to it

The length and depth of this website is almost undescribable, so where do I start. Martin Lewis has a proven reputation within the UK and for sure for him to put his name to anything means that it has been fully checked out.

It is probably easier to describe what this website means to me. I review the wednesday email newsletter every week. Without this (and some of this may seem obvious) I would have taken longer to discover cash back websites, that you can make money from recycling your old mobile, that you can earn money from surveys and reviews (on dooyoo), I wouldn't have got microsoft office visio and vista so cheaply off the ultimate steal, the use of shopbots.

The website is clearly laid out - in sections of interest for instance motoring, travel, utility bills, savings, so you can start to hone down on what it si you are interested in looking at. I would say if you have nothing in particular you want to look for the search could be abit random and fruitless.

There are discussion forums and competition boards where information is equally shared so that all may benefit, and even abit of healthy competition in some forums as some people strive through many ways to become mortgage free.

What I like the most is the pro's and the con's are discussed where as alot of websites purporting to give advice never really tell you how it is. A good example of this is the review on survey / review sites he did, summises on those that have high or low pay out thresholds, those that have infrequent surveys so you can see which ones to focus your efforts on.

If there's a sale on - they know about it, money off vouchers / cheap hotel rooms / flights - they know, best cashback credit cards - you guessed - they know. And if they don't know the answer to your qusetion I think they would be more than happy to address this.

Put the website address in your favourites, sign up to the weekly email and refer to constantly.

Summary: This is a highly reputable site which has made a difference to me at least, try it
