Internet Banking & Shopping for the Older Generation

Description

Written especially for the over 50's in easy to understand language and with large type for easy reading. This book should give you the confidence to purchase goods and services and. also, to carry out bank and building society transactions safely and securely over the Internet.
Internet shopping is really nothing more than good old fashioned mail order! The only difference being that you place your order through a web site rather than by post or on the telephone.
Internet banking is carried out in much the same way. You use a web site to arrange transfers between accounts, make payments or set up standing orders and direct debits, etc. But unlike telephone banking you have the advantage of also being able to print out your own statements and details of all your transactions.
Nowadays, it is very common to find that the lowest prices for goods or services that you may wish to purchase, and the highest interest rates offered by many banks and building societies, are only available via the Internet
