RWPrimer’s Agency Hyper List…

Hello Guests and Members!

I have been a bit absent from the forum in the past few weeks. Sorry about that. I have been working on a few new things that I hope will be more beneficial to our readers. Unfortunately, this has taken considerable time to do so.

So what have I been working on?

It has bothered me for some time that there is no comparative information on agencies. Each agency has a complex cost structure and services that are often very hard to get a handle on. Sometimes the costs are not stated clearly or the services rendered are generalized. Often it is not clear what is covered under a membership fee, package visit fee vs. what is available with an additional fee. This being said, it is a very difficult task to understand what a single agency provides, let alone a comparison between agencies.

Attached is an Excel spreadsheet that lists a few of the more notable agencies by their features and cost. It is certainly not a comprehensive listing, however it is designed to cover the most important features that an individual may use or should be concerned with.  Be aware that the information provided is essentially that of what the agency web site provides. We make no effort to go beyond what is publicly available.

The list contains many links (Blue Text) to the pages where the info was derived from. Also, hover over the boxes with the little red corner triangles for pop-up of comments, expanded information and explanations.

If you find that this is a useful list or not, post your thoughts and I will expand it in the appropriate direction.

P.S. This is a RWPrimer created spreadsheet that is clean of any bugs. You may need to be a member to have access to this attachment. Become a member, it is free!

List removed. Use newer revision below

Rev 1.10

OK, I have added 5 more agencies. They are now grouped by country... that makes 5 from Russia and 5 from the Ukraine. They are now in order of the agencies with the most features.  There are now 35 points that covered on each agency. About 40% of the fields have hyper links and 40% have pop-up comments for details. Points that are covered:

AGENCY NAME
NOTED SITE FEATURES
SITE ESTABLISHED
BASE OPERATIONS
CIS MAIN OFFICE
DATABASE MAIN COUNTRY, AREA & SIZE
Membership  TYPES 1,2,3,4,5+
BUY CONTACT INFO. ?
TRANSLATION & FORWARDING SERVICE?
PHONE CALL SUPPORT?
VIDEO SERVICES?
PHOTO SERVICES?
FACE TO FACE INTROS?
ROMANCE TOUR?
MATCH MAKING?
ANTI-SCAM POLICY?
RW INVESTIGATION?
ENTRY VISA SUPPORT?
AIRPORT/TRAIN TRANSFERS & PICKUPs?
ACCOMODATIONS?
VISA REGISTRATION?
INTEPRETER SERVICES?
ACTIVITY PACKAGES?
FIANCEE VISA SUPPORT?
LANGUAGE CLASSES?
GIFT SERVICES?
LIST OF SERVICES?
VISIT PACKAGES & SERVICES?

As the list gains more order, it is easier to get see the diferences between agencies. If anyone has a request to add a particular agency, post or PM me.

P.S. The list is beyond the allowable attachment size. I knew this would happen sooner or latter. Consequently, you will have to unzip the file before you can read it.
