If you're thinking about getting a prepaid electric, gas or water meter this handy guide will help you choose the best option.<br />

From firsthand experience using this kind of meter over the years I've endured numerous problems -- so you won't have to.<br />

The Pros of Prepaid Meters</h2>
<div class="txtd" id="txtd_23727934">
<ul>
<li>You will never fall into debt again because you pay in advance for any electric or gas you use.</li>
<li>If you're already in debt with the gas or electric company you can
arrange to have these arrears paid off by paying a fixed arranged amount
which will be deducted automatically every time you top-up.</li>
<li>If you have people renting your home you'll never need to worry about them running up high bills without paying. <i>That's all the pros.</i></li>

<h2 id="21482718_title">
The Cons Of PrePaid Meters</h2>
<div class="txtd" id="txtd_21482718">
<ul>
<li><b></b>Electric
and gas companies charge a fixed weekly or monthly rate for having
these types of meters installed. Tip: In theory, you're paying rent for
them so you'll save money instantly by switching companies who will then
remove the prepaid meters and install the standard type. Some companies
charge you a fee for changing from a standard to a prepaid meter. Tip:
Shop around; Ask what the charges are because some companies will change
it for free.</li>
<li>If you lose your top-up card/key, you'll be unable to top-up and
will have to wait for a replacement by post which is usually free, but
some companies do charge.</li>
<li>Finding a shop near where you live to top-up is not always simple.
Tip: Find out where the nearest top-up locations are before you decide.</li>
<li>While trying to top-up my card/key I've been told many times that my
key and/or card is not working and on other occasions the shop's
key/card reader is broken.</li>
<li>Prepaid meters or meters in general are not always located inside
your home. Some are fixed to the outside so think about the times when
it will be snowing and'or freezing cold when a simple thing like topping
up would be just plain awkward.</li>

My personal experiences using prepaid meters</h2>
<div class="txtd" id="txtd_21483581">
•
Sunday afternoon while in the middle of cooking a Sunday roast my gas
supply ran out! I then had to insert my gas card to activate the £6.00
emergency when I noticed my gas meter was not working resulting in a
4-hour wait for a technician to correct the fault.<br />
<br />
• Late at
night while taking a nice hot shower the hot water suddenly became
freezing cold because my credit had run out! I had to dress and go
outside to where the meter was located to activate the emergency credit.<br />
<br />
•
Another day my electric just ran out! I already used the £6.00 of
emergency credit. No problem, I thought, I'll just pop into the shop --
only to find it closed. The only other nearby place to top-up was at a
local garage, which required cab fare.<br />
Charlotte Symonds, from
Whiteway, and her two young children were left without heating, hot
water or a cooker for more than three days after a mix-up over a new gas
payment card. Read the full story <a href="http://www.thisisbath.co.uk/Gas-payment-card-mix-leaves-family-cold/story-14335188-detail/story.html">here</a>.</div>

Save pounds and DON''T get a pre-paid meter installed. </h2>
<div class="txtd" id="txtd_21482836">
My
advice, if you're elderly, disabled or a single parent. In fact, even
if you're just a human, get a payment/budget card and top it up each
week or month so when you do get your next bill you will have paid most
or all of it already. Any amount you paid that exceeds the total
gas/electric bill will be credited to your account to help pay your next
bill.<br />
Having said all this, I spoke to a neighbor who had his meters for
20-plus years without ever encountering any problem. If he knew how much
he had paid in rental fees over the years he definitely would see the
problem!<br />
<h3>
<b>Questions to ask your potential new supplier.</b></h3>
<ul>
<li>How much do they charge (tariff prices) for their energy? It's
not as easy to compare as you may think. Check out this price comparison
Website: http://www.which.co.uk/switch to see how you can save money.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>How much per month do they charge for "renting" the key/card Meter they will install?</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>What's the procedure if the meter stops working; i.e, How much time will it take to be fixed?</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>What happens if you lose your key/card, i.e, How long will
it take to be replaced, and how much is the fee for a replacement
card/key.</li>

Should I Have a Water Meter Installed</h2>
<div class="txtd" id="txtd_21603266">
<h2>
<b>Things to consider before you decide to have a water meter installed.</b></h2>
Even though it was a free installation and no monthly rentals, I knew
I could save money on my water bill because I am very water
conservative and use much less water than the average user, but I
decided against having one installed. Why? Because I was thinking of all
those days when I have visitors, including some who stay over and may
not be as water conscious as I am! Many visitors I have include children
who usually forget to turn the taps fully off or often leave the taps
on unnecessarily, which is practically pouring money down the drain.<br />
<br />
<h2>
<b>The benefits of having a water meter installed.</b></h2>
If you want to<b> reduce your footprint and save money</b>
then having a water meter installed would be your best option. When you
receive your first bill you'll know if you're using too much water. If
your bill is much higher than usual after having a meter installed, then
that is the time to <i><b>start reducing the amount you use with the many water saving advice tips</b></i>. You can obtain Water saving tips and more information by contacting Thames Water. Note: All leaks from all pipes and taps would have to be fixed before having a meter installed.</div>

It all began with horse-drawn omnibus (image below) which proved popular. Later, with electrification, the carriages were joined by trams. The red bus didn't appear on London roads until the early 1920s. Since then these distinctive buses have become a symbol of this friendly metropolis. Practical and well designed, the buses are one of many reasons that so many people love London.<br /><br />The Routemaster<br /><br />The Routemaster was introduced in the mid 1950s. It was phased out in 2005. These buses were not only my favorites, but London's most loved bus. You could hop on and off the bus as you pleased while traveling between London's popular tourist attractions. As a child I found that one of the perks of these buses arose when I was only going one or two stops. On those occasions I could sometimes get to my destination without encountering the conductor who would otherwise take my fare. This worked better when I sat upstairs at the very front because it took much longer for the conductor to get to me.<br /><br />1941, Phyllis Thompson became the first woman licensed to drive a double-deck bus<br /><br />The Current Double Decker Bus<br /><br />The current double decker bus that took over from the Routemaster, is 'pay-on-entry'. The main problem with this bus is people can't hop on and off as they please. Even when caught in heavy traffic, passengers can't get out and walk. Drivers won't open the doors between stops. It can be very frustrating, especially if you're stationary and only 10 feet from your stop! These buses were brought in for “health and safety” reasons and to reduce fare dodging. The main savings though is the conductor's salary. To be fair, these buses are quieter, better for wheelchair users. the elderly and moms with buggies.<br /><br />Fact. The London bus network is one of the largest in the world.<br /><br />The Bendy Bus (Articulated Bus)<br /><br />The Bendy Bus, or articulated bus came into service in 2002 and was phased out in 2009. When they were introduced, I couldn't understand why they were created. Why would you want to chop off the top deck of a bus and tow it behind? Aside from that, these articulated buses have created more controversy than all the other buses put together. Too often these buses caught fire and were involved in accidents. Londoners just weren't used to buses that long. Also, during rush hour, the rear doors of the second carriage made it easy for people to sneak on without paying.<br /><br />Fact. Two thirds of public transport journeys are made by bus.<br /><br />The New Routemaster Bus.<br /><br />The new Routemaster bus looks amazing. This hybrid bus was inspired by the original Routemaster and I think it's a fabulous design although our former mayor, Ken Livingstone, was never a fan for cost reasons. This new modern bus has three doors and two staircases as well as a hop-on, hop-off rear platform. It's much lighter, more fuel efficient and greener than its predecessors. I can't wait for them to be rolled out everywhere and to start hoping on and off them. The total price for the first eight buses, including research and development, cost over 10 million pounds. That means the next eight buses should cost much less!? Only time will tell whether they will be a success when they're rolled out in 2012/13.<br /><br />Fact. An average bus user travels 3.4 miles per journey.<br /><br />London Tour Buses.<br /><br />You get a bird's eye view while riding an open-top bus. The unique panoramic views are ideal for taking photographs from its elevated perspective. These buses are a great way to see, hear and smell the city of London with live guided commentary of the cities iconic buildings and many of its hot spots and attractions.Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2489381811607255026.post-40156012317841935282011-07-24T13:21:00.002-07:002017-03-17T08:20:15.648-07:00Free Instant Messengers To View Anyones Webcam!<div class="module moduleText color0" id="mod_189652">

Free Instant Messengers</h2>
<div class="txtd" id="txtd_189652">
<b>I have been using chat client programs for many years to communicate over the Internet. It has now become very popular and millions of people use it everyday and some 24-7. If your wondering how can i hack into any one's web cam without permission, this is not one of those articles. This article details the programs you <i>don't</i> have to <i>hack or ask </i>for permission to view them on cam! </b><br />
<b><br />
</b><br />
While text messaging via mobile phones remains the standard way of communicating, nowadays people prefer video conferencing because you can actually see and speak to your friends, families or complete strangers! Some instant messaging may be too hard to use or cost too much to use although some are more user friendly. To give you an idea of what to expect, Ive selected the most popular and free programs that I’ve used and those that may suit you better, depending on your specific needs.<br />
<br />
<b>Below is a list of all the free and most popular programs that I have used. You will be able to see, hear and talk to anyone in the world at anytime of the day!.</b><br />
<br />
<b>YAHOO</b> – What I like about Yahoo is that it’s totally free and has a vast number of chat rooms encompassing many different topics. It also has excellent web-cam features where you can select small, medium and full screen cam views of as many cams as your PC or screen can handle. Your also able to have as many free email addresses as you want. Yahoo includes file and photo sharing facilities, and you can play games, have your own radio station or make free PC-to-PC calls. Anything goes at Yahoo. There’s no rules. You have to ask for permission to view someones webcam. <a href="http://messenger.yahoo.com/webmessengerpromo.php" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Yahoo IM FREE DOWNLOAD</a><br />
<br />
<b>YaHeLite is a Yahoo Chat Client. </b>Among others are mychat, Yaheh, Cheetachat,Yahzak and El33chat. If you don't like the main Yahoo interface, the YaHaLite may suit your needs. It’s free, and it will have different features. It has a much more complicated interface, but you will soon find your way around. You’ll soon discover its excellent security and other features that make Yahoo look old school! <a href="http://www.yahelite.org/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">YaHeLite FREE</a><br />
<br />
<b>PALTALK </b>-- A chat program and instant messaging as well as a very popular chat service with a large community that has millions of users. It has thousands of chat rooms on a vast range of topics geared toward all kinds of interests. You can create your own room. It has advanced video streaming, multi player games and music download facilities. With the free version you can only view other people’s cameras for about 10 seconds, but you’re still able to stream your video continuously for free. To get all the features it will costs about $40 a year. The program itself is relatively small and contains only a few megabytes. I get by fine with the free version. PALTALK .FREE DOWNLOAD.<i> Free Trial! to view cams!</i><br />
<br />
<b>CAMFROG</b> -- Chat is a nice, free chat service offering cam and audio chats that are hosted independently by the users. This is a place where it’s possible to view 90 percent of the cams available. You will need a web-cam to chat in most rooms and will be kicked out of some rooms if you don’t have a cam or if your face is not on camera. The camera viewing size is small, but you can pay to have larger cams and for the multi-view cam feature. You don't need a web-cam to use cam frog, but you will not be allowed in some of the rooms if you don't have one and it’s unlikely people will want to talk to you. Some rooms have their own rules, which you’ll see before entering. The cam software technology at cam-frog is very high. It offers fast streaming -- much faster than other messengers. Pro user can view up to a 100 cams at once, which costs about $50 that offers many more features, I love this service as it’s always nice to see whom your talking to... <a href="http://download.camfrog.com/" rel="nofollow" style="color: blue;" target="_blank">Cam frog FREE DOWNLOAD</a></div>

<div class="module moduleText color0" id="mod_4322982">
<div class="txtd" id="txtd_4322982">
<b>WINDOWS LIVE M.S.N, W.L.M.</b> is another very popular messaging service, but it does not have any chat rooms anymore. But you can call PC-to-PC free, view friends’ web-cam and conference/video chat, share folders and files, off line messages, the best icons..The feature I like best is that you’re able to remotely access another PC and help a friend with his PC problems. Also, there are other clients available designed for Microsoft windows called Adium for Mac OS X and Trillion. <a href="http://imagine-msn.com/messenger/launch/en-GB/index.html?thisTour=" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Windows MSN FREE DOWNLOAD</a><br />
<br />
<b>EYEBALL CHAT</b> -- Offers completely free video chat and messaging as well as text messaging for friends family and strangers. You share video messages, music and photos. It’s easy to use and allows you to simultaneously sign in to your other IM programs to view their status. The ability to video conference with more than one person is not supported, other than that its small, simple chat service. <a href="http://www.eyeballchat.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">EYEBALL CHAT FREE DOWNLOAD</a><br />
<br />
<b>TRYFAST </b>Messenger is another free chat, but it is not very popular as yet and the number of rooms is very limited, It’s a nice cozy place to hang out, and it has web-cam features. The cams can be full screened or and any size you want, You pay about $6 a month for the full features, which enable you to view many cams simultaneously with their live video streaming. It’s quite good, but the downside is it uses a lot of PC resources for such a small app. It has file transfer features. If you’re not on cam the owners of the room will boot you out, or even bar you, It offers simultaneous chats with users from MSN, AOL, Yahoo and ICQ in the same video chat session. <a href="http://www.tryfast.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">TRYFAST FREE DOWNLOAD</a><br />
<br />
<b>SKYPE </b>– Another good messenger service that allows you free calls PC-to-PC and an instant messaging service. Most features in Skype can be used for free, although you will have to <b>pay for a few.</b> There's useful options to find people with their search facility.Providing the person you are looking for has Skype or email address or name, you will be able to find them easily, You can search for a person’s specific age, sex or locality. Skype also offers free video conferencing and unlimited file sharing size. You can safely, cheaply and conveniently send money to your Skype contacts with its Send Money feature, There is a chat facility where you can join in certain topics or create your own for discussion. SKYPE.<br />
<br />
<b>Download what you think best or just download them all! </b>Use these programs for their content, features and the features you like! We are all different and require different things. The programs are not all designed for specific persons. Each has its own little niche and style and its pros and cons. Sometimes I have used certain programs because there’s too many issues, such as technical problems I haven’t had time to fix!<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.google.com/talk/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Google talk</a> is a chat client that I have not used! No web cam feature.<br />
<a href="http://www.pidgin.im/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Pidgin </a>is another great free service so people tell me!<br />
Once you have experienced video chat and conferencing, communicating online will never be the same again!<br />

Hi, your article is very informative!<br />
I am using Google's G-Talk and it does has a web-cam function. Just go to >>settings >>chat... in Gmail!<br />
Of course you'll have to install G-Talk first :)<br />
I haven't used a camera yet, because I'm OK with the chat. But the best thing about G-Talk is, you can put it on your website and anyone can get to you right away.<br />
And NO advertising, so it is very light...<br />
Thanks for reading!<br />

<span style="font-size: small;"><b>Anti-Spyware program reviews.</b></span></h2>
<h2 class="subtitle" style="font-weight: normal; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Anti-spy-ware software was designed to help you combat an ever increasing number of programs which are purposely designed to collect system information from your infected computer. </span></h2>
<h2 class="subtitle" style="font-weight: normal; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"> Spyware will silently track your behavior to create a market profile for you that is transmitted without your consent or knowledge and sold on to advertising companies... </span></h2>
<h2 class="subtitle" style="font-weight: normal; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Even worse, <b>keyloggers</b> will try and steal your passwords and any sensitive data it can get! "Spyware and <b>phishing </b>problems are just a problems for users than viruses<b>.</b>" </span></h2>
<h2 class="subtitle" style="font-weight: normal; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Viruses can cause severer damage than spyware could ever do, but spyware is more common. Having tons of Spyware can be just as draining as a single virus. </span></h2>
<h2 class="subtitle" style="font-weight: normal; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Spyware can come bundled with shareware and any kind of down-loadable software. Including tricking users by manipulating security features which are designed to prevent unwanted installations. If you have new toolbars in your browser that you haven't installed, or your browser crashes all the time, or if your home page changed without your knowledge, the chances are your computer is most probably infected with spyware with some symptoms that cannot be seen! </span></h2>
<h2 class="subtitle" style="font-weight: normal; text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="font-size: small;">The battle of the spyware war is on-going and it gets more sophisticated each day with companies releaseing daily updates to combat this </span><b> </b></b></h2>

It searches your hard disk for spy or adbots and detect and remove spyware......Spybot-S&D is free, so there's no harm giving it a try to see if something has invaded your computer. Once you have customized it, you will find it extremely effective.<br />

<b><i>Norton and Mcafee </i></b><i>are thee two</i> <i>big players in the field because they dominate the market and are a household name. But are the best! in many peoples experience from experience! No! The things I ask myself when anyone mentions a good program is. Is it free? What size is it? Will it drain my PCs recourses? which i will only find out once i install and use! If i am not satisfied i will remove it and try another!! It's quite simple.</i><br />
<br />
<b><i><u>Useing a good browser</u> </i>is another way to stop un-warranted threats.</b> Firefox is proven to have much better feature's than all it's rivals, it's totally customizable and has more security feature's than Internet Explorer to combat spyware, hackers, scammers and spammers including built in pop-up blocker that works!<b>. </b><br />
<br />
<b></b> <br />
<b>Note: <u><span style="font-weight: normal;">N</span></u></b><u>o single program will catch or stop every threat</u>! You have to remember, the more programs you have running the lower performance you will have. One Spyware tool can be just as draining on your PC as using 2 others! All require a different amount of resources so bear that in mind when using one or more free programs..<br />
<br />
Using file sharing programs and swapping music, photos and other files are notorious avenues for spyware infection and the need for security is greater, so using two different programs is very common these days.</div>
