Visa required for China for British Passport. The various options to obtain, required flicking a coin. Travel Direct came down 'heads' so went for them. No later regrets as they were very efficient and when required answered clearly any questions asked (a + being telephones numbers were available for communication, rather than just email ). The re-assurance of the photo check before submission relieved the doubt of suitability. Receipt of passport and visa after a few days was as promised. A bonus was the price was very competitive. Very well done.
