How do you get whypaymore.co.kr to work? I get the no results page whenever I try to use it on my computer. I read something on here about changing your regional settings to make it work, but I tried that and it didn't work.

What browser are you using? I just tried it and it works fine.

I've tried it on the latest versions of IE, Firefox and Chrome. Like most Korean websites, it doesn't really function at all on Firefox and Chrome, but I get the hand when I use Explorer. It works fine on my computer at work, but not my laptop.

Sounds more like your security settings.

I don't think so. It was at all the default settings, since I never use IE unless I'm trying to access some site that doesn't support good browsers, and I tried lowering all the settings and it still doesn't work.

Forget whypaymore and go to toptravel.co.kr. The latter has an English site but the prices are higher so get a Korean friend to help you.

i also recommend onlinetour.co.kr
the site is a bit clunky and of course ONLY works in IE but i got a good deal on a trip back to the UK this summer past.

Again it is all in Korea, so those of you who cant read hangeul may be SOL...or ask someone to help you.

Yes, I know about those sites. Whypaymore has the lowest price for what I'm looking for so I want to use it. I'm just looking for help using this site, I'm not interested in advice about what I should do instead.

What are you looking for? I've looked through that site and the prices aren't that cheap plus the cheaper tickets are all sold out. I wasn't impressed so I never returned to that site.

For anyone ekse who happens upon this thread - I just looked at TopTravel's proces in Englisha dn they are at least 25-30% cheaper than other sites for Seoul-SriLanka.

I used to go into tourcabin.com and it SHOWS good prices on the sites it displays, but go into those sites and those prices are nowhere to be found for the most part.

I say check toptravel.co.kr (the Korean site, that is, as the English site will charge more) first.

I found that if I am using an English copy of Windows, whypaymore will not work.

If I use a Korean copy of Windows, it does work.

I have absolutely no idea why but that's my experience.
