Internet City

I have rarely needed to use other internet cafés except to receed into the online universe that is the gaming fraternity. As internet cafes go this ones got the international phone booths the private desk areas that hide the computer screen from your neighbor and the setups to use skype, email, use the internet or do some work on the fly. With the advent of skype I would of thought all international phone calls would be made from a skype enabled computer, but it hasn’t fully changed yet.
If you are an international student you will be happy to know they offer western union money transfers, they may be on the excessive side when it comes to the fees and applicable charges so check alabany road for better deals.
This internet café charges more than I was ready to part with especially with what I had in mind, would easily exceeded £10 and when there are other internet cafes that cost £10 for the day you can understand why I didn’t sit down.
The shop also offers laptop repair and accessories sales for peripherals.

I’m a pretty private person; I like my solitude and I like being able to do my own thing away from scrutiny and the watching eyes of Big Brother, and as a result, I absolutely loathe internet cafes. When I have to use one, I sit there on the computer, scowling at the screen with my eyes constantly darting left and right trying to catch anyone spying on me whilst trying to perform my task in the smallest window I possibly can.
I’m a little paranoid.
Which is why, when I need to, I use Internet City. The computers are partitioned well enough to hide your screen from the encroaching eyes of the maniacs around you, all of whom want to steal your precious information and the staff have a rather laissez-​faire attitude towards your activities. Whereas other cafes have some militant lunatic monitoring your screen from his central hub, the staff here happily chat to customers, occasionally pop outside for a cigarette and just generally seem rather happy to just let people get on with what they need to do.
I realise this review makes me sound like a bit of a Unabomber, but if I need to dive into an internet café, it’s usually to transfer funds from an online bank account. This is the only café where I’ve felt (reasonably) safe doing so.

Internet City is a popular internet and laptop repair shop at the city centre end of City Road. They have a lot of desk top machines for internet use, that are conveniently partitioned to allow for a more private means of publically going on-​line. This makes using Skype, gaming or even watching a film entirely feasible, without feeling as though the rest of the world is watching you. Clearly a good headset is required to make Skype conversations possible… you can either bring your own, or use one of the Internet City headphones without charge.
They also have a couple of international phone booths at the rear of the shop. Again, these have been built with privacy in mind, and allow you to talk to friends and family around the world without feeling in any way self-​conscious.
I’ve not used their laptop repair service and so I cannot vouch for this. But they seem to stock a selection of accessories and consumables, and so it looks as though they are equipped and know what they are doing.
They also offer money transfer with Western Union, but with the controversy surrounding this company, as well as the charges applicable, I think you’ll find that it’s possible to wire money more inexpensively at Nazzal On-​Line up the road.
