I did not see any of the new site idea as I was away on holiday. Today is the first I have seen of it and like the new appearance. I do not like the tools on the right, prefer the look of the ones you have now.
The site does need a makeover after 4 years but what ever it looks like it will not stop me using it or recommending it to other people.0 -
Good for you Martin. It takes guts to reconsider something as important as this and admit that you weren't happy with the design as it was.
I think the changes you have made are very sensible and would be happy for this version to go live. :T0 -

NOOOO It's not a You-Tube Advert - it's a site video - hosted on You-Tube - thought I think when we go live we'll use Google Video!Martin Lewis, Money Saving Expert.

The Forum button should be even bigger. I'd say half the page!

all perfect except i think the little section which has 'credit card tart alert' etc makes the site look too busy and confusing, too much information, i think take that out and if you definatly want the information on the front page put it under the tools bitYes Your Dukeiness0

Please make it work in Firefox - [strike]the 'screen sample' doesn't[/strike].
Doh - a left click scales it up from 32% to full screen (thanks MSE Dan).Time has moved on (much quicker than it used to - or so it seems at my age) and my previous advice on residential telephony has been or is now gradually being overtaken by changes in the retail market. Hence, I have now deleted links to my previous 'pearls of wisdom'. I sincerely hope they helped save some of you money.0 -
Don't worry Heinz the new site is designed for cross browser compatibility - funny about the screen grab it works in Firefox for meMartin Lewis, Money Saving Expert.
