    I got the email and the code but then its trying to charge me £34.95 for some reason, not sure why tried for ages may have to give it a miss unless anyone can help me pls

    You need to place the dongle voucher code that you received via email in the appropriate box(Coupon Code).

    Once entered, there is a tiny little rectangular button at the right of the box. Press that and the voucher code will be applied. The price will change to £4.95

    thanks, ordered one, came up with the secure visa password type page, so i assume it was safe enough (hope so anyway)

    the dongle also has a bit for your micro sd card, so you can use it as a data stick also

    I would not enter your debit/credit card details as the website is not secure.

    The website just doesn't inspire me with confidence that my details will be held and used securely.

    I would urge other Moneysavers to postpone ordering from this company until someone can provide enough information to show this is legit.

    I must stress, when you are entering card details make sure the site is HTTPS:// this site is not so all card details are being sent in plain text and the company can then see all details.

    Also the website is hosted in France so all your details are being sent to an unknown company.

    But it goes throught the secure card system does that make any difference ??
