Has anybody used this website(s) before? I have just placed an order (only £29) at checkout, which appeared secure and I entered my card details etc. only to be forwarded to the Barclays ePDQ checkout where I had to re-enter all details, which I thought a bit odd.

My concern is the half cocked email confirmation that followed - from a @Hotmail.com account.

I have cancelled the card and transaction so all's well, just curious.

    The site looks genuine and the company is listed as a stockist on a site I sometimes use, but I agree a hotmail address is strange for an established company.

    Just to close this off, I have spoken with them on the phone and the Hotmail address was apparently a temporary measure as their e-mail was down :think: (I did receive a genuine email sometime later)

    The double checkout entry of ALL card details is "for their records" make of that what you will but I'll call it a near miss.
