Yahoo! Bill Pay Has Made Me a Believer

Thu, 24 May 2001 14:09:56 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Zski - If you read my earlier epinion about direct debits ( located at: http://www.epinions.com/finc-review-5962-16FC5DDF-39D63DF8-prod2 ) you would know that I haven’t been much of a fan of bill payment...

Cheap Fares for Students and Still Great Service

Wed, 21 Mar 2001 20:08:29 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Zski - Frankly, I am reluctant to publish the 244th epinion about Continental Airlines. After all, the only way you can really decide whether you enjoy the service provided by a particular air carrier is to experience it yourself; while opinions offered...

Astounding Speed, Once You Finally Get Connected

Sun, 17 Dec 2000 16:09:38 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Zski - As of 2/28/03 DIRECTV DSL No longer provides service. I've elected to leave the review here in case for some reason the company reincarnates itself, but otherwise, stop reading, this is probably not useful information.

Note:...

Great service until you make a claim...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Zski - Then it just gets better!

Thu, 14 Sep 2000 22:31:13 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Zski - My family has been insured by USAA for almost 50 years. While I only recently became a USAA member, I have had auto insurance with them through my parents for 8 years, and have always been completely satisfied with the service I’ve received. I also...

Cheap for a reason

Mon, 3 Jul 2000 17:14:12 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Zski - I recently traveled on TWA on a round trip flight from San Antonio to Norfolk. I usually fly cheaply on Continental thanks to American Express; however, this time one of my travel dates landed squarely on a date that had been blacked out by Continental...

A Great Place to Work Out -- If You Are Careful

Wed, 14 Jun 2000 20:15:19 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Zski - I joined Bally Total Fitness last November after moving to Dallas. I had been working out at a club that only has locations in San Antonio. Bally’s has its good and bad points. I would hesitantly recommend it to someone who was looking for a place to...

Ebates.com: Shop Online? Need More Cash? Use Ebates!

Sun, 14 May 2000 17:52:56 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Zski - A few months ago I received yet another advertisement in my inbox about yet another online site that was trying to get my attention. For some reason I surfed on over to ebates.com and am glad I did. I've used ebates for 5 months now, but wanted to wait...

My score went up 14 points!

Fri, 5 May 2000 16:43:02 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Zski - The MCAT has been the bane of pre-meds since the beginning of time. When I decided that I would join the ranks of that generally anal-retentive group, I was determined to stay away from MCAT preparation classes. Why? I thought that classes such as...

It depends on what you're looking for

Tue, 25 Apr 2000 20:14:02 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Zski - Most of the time, the Houses of Parliament are impressive as just that - houses (well, big ones, but houses still). The beautiful exterior is matched by an equally impressive interior, but unless you plan ahead and go at just the right time, don't...

Exactly what does BOA mean by service?

Mon, 24 Apr 2000 13:10:20 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Zski - I have been a Bank of America Military Bank customer since it was an independent bank called the National Bank of Fort Sam Houston in the early 1980s. I first opened an account when my dad started working for the Fort Sam Bank. You would think that...

Does it have to be this sensational?

Mon, 10 Apr 2000 18:14:01 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author Zski - I'd be amazed if the quality of Fox newscasts across the country and the programming of the Fox News channel are as bad as those on the affiliate here in Dallas. If they are, I can't imagine why anyone would watch.

I have to admit, I have...

The All England Lawn Tennis & Croquet Club: Wimbledon - Like Candyland for Tennis Lovers

Mon, 3 Apr 2000 04:53:25 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Zski - The All-England Lawn Tennis & Croquet Club (AELTC for short), home of the Championships at Wimbledon, is one heck of an amazing place. As the previous reviewer wrote, walking onto the grounds is like walking into history.

Don't Miss the Cabinet War Rooms

Mon, 3 Apr 2000 03:56:53 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Zski - This is not a review of a gallery; however, this is the only category it would fit! The Cabinet War Rooms museum is the actual bunker in Westminster, near the Houses of Parliament, where Winston Churchill and staff worked during World War II (during...

It's worth the money & work

Sun, 2 Apr 2000 23:27:58 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Zski - I graduated from Rice in 1998. I'm happy that I went there, and satisfied with my college experience.

First and foremost, I don't know where epinions got the information that students at Rice study four hours a day. Maybe my experience...

Great Car for the Money

Sun, 2 Apr 2000 19:13:15 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Zski - After driving my family's 1988 Ford Taurus (in the later years without A/C, in Houston!) through college, it was time to get a new car. I considered the Contour, the Honda Civic, the VW Jetta, and the Nissan Altima. I wanted a smaller-sized car and...

Why bank anywhere else!?!

Sat, 1 Apr 2000 19:21:50 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Zski - I have to confess, I am biased because I worked at USAA for six months while waiting to start school again. At the time I started working there, I was banking with one of their major banking competitors (Bank of America Military Bank - formerly Fort Sam...
