Alliance & Leicester Launch Internet ‘Money Spider’

The Alliance & Leicester (A&L) will launch a new Website on 24 September in order to meet the needs of its more technologically ‘switched-on’ customer base. The company acknowledges the impact the Internet will have on the personal financial sector.

To make banking and finance more fun visitors can search the site for the invisible A&L Money Spider which will then pose a riddle. The answer to this riddle can then be emailed to A&L for the chance to win £100. According to the company, this is part of a scheme to steer away from conventional Websites by incorporating animations and interactive demos. Alongside this aspect of the site are many of the company’s banking services.

A&L is using ‘Flash’ technology to make the site easier to use by reducing downloading times. The site is designed and built by Webmedia Limited.
