• please find me esta.cbp.dhs.gov web site Posted by lynton roy bennett, england
• Its free!
  1/ Don't scroll to any other than 'U.S. Customs & Border Protection - Travel'.
  
  2/ Tip:- Look for the official U.S. round Seal Icon, you will recognise it as
  'Liberty' holding up her torch, inside a circle. Posted by Bernie B., U.K.
• The CBP website is not great I must admit. You can apply for ESTA also on http://www.estavisaapplication.co.uk . They charge a small admin fee of £15, but provide clearer application form and anwer to all questions you may have about ESTA.
  
  Just be aware that there are also some website charging even $250 for an application so better watch out! Posted by Pete, UK
• We were scammed for£20 each for visa to America to visit friends,every one at the Heathrow desks said they should be free and no one wanted to even see the visas,just had to fill out the one on the plane as usual. We have obviously been ripped off and cannot get our money back.So Beware.
  Anyone know of anyway of getting our money refunded? Posted by Mr I Harris, UNITED KINGDOM
• all the websites seam to be chargable where is the normal website that you can enter on? Posted by mandy , england
