trouble booking eurostar? is there another site to book?

has anyone booked a eurostar trip online via the eurostar website recently and had trouble?

at the moment the site won%26#39;t accept my payment. I%26#39;ve emailed them of course to try and sort it out, but the earlybird fare specials expire tommorrow so I need to sort it out very soon.

Or, does anyone know an alternative site that I could use to book the tickets?

it is for Paris to London leg, have already tried the UK eurostar site but they only book tickets starting from London.

If that doesn%26#39;t work, book with Rail Europe:

I have also found that I have many problems on Eurostar when using Firefox as my browser. For Eurostar I have to use Explorer to avoid payment problems.

thanks for the replies.

tried clearing the cookies and everything but still had no luck. Ended up booking through raileurope. It was a little more expensive but still a good price.

really looking forward to the journey on Eurostar, I like train travel :) We booked leisure select class tickets, so should be good fun.
