    it all depends on what company your thinking of using..teletext is just like a shop window. at the bottom of each page it will tell you if they are bonded and who the bonds with. I used to book via TT before teh days of easy internet booking and never had a problem
    If you look anything like your passport photo....Your too ill to travel

    We went to Egypt last year through teletext and was really happy with the service we recieved.

    You can phone & get the name of the accomodation and then phone back so it gives you the chance to look at some reviews on the net before you book.

    The girls we spoke to also gave us the names of other accomodation available & the price difference so we could choose which one we wanted.

    I think most of them are Atol/abta but it always says on the companys page anyway.

    A friends mum & dad uses teletext about 3 times a year. They pack their case & phone companies off teletext the day before they go as they never mind where they end up :D
    Sometimes it's important to work for that pot of gold...But other times it's essential to take time off and to make sure that your most important decision in the day simply consists of choosing which color to slide down on the rainbow...
