I love this website - so convenient to browse all properties in the one spot. I recently used this site when short listing homes to look at in a particular area. I have also found that when emailing individual agents through the site, they reply to my queries promptly. Gone are the days when you have to wait for the Saturday paper to come out or trapse all over town visiting individual real estate agent's offices searching for property listings!

This review is for People At Work, Brooklyn VIC

I registered with this company when I relocated to Vic from Perth. They are constantly advertising for candidates yet they don't seem to have any work. Essentially, they wasted my time! (I have heard many people have had a similar experience with the company). At the end of the day, they want to 'fill their books' rather than help you find employment. Very disappointing as when you are searching for a job, the last thing you need is 'time wasters'.
In future I will always apply directly to an employer for a job - not waste my time going through a greedy, sales foucesed recruitment company!

We spent a relaxing weekend at the Pericoota Vines Resort. Absolutley fantastic facilities; the room was well appointed with a lovely balcony overlooking the lake. Priacy is assured and the resort facilities are 1st class; tennis courts, pool, lovely gardens. It made for a relaxing, unforgettable weekend and I can't wait to go back again!

We recently made a purchase using the online store with some hesitation. We received the delivered item 2 days later and the quality was fantastic (a woolen rug). The convenience of shopping from home was fantastic (I hate shopping!) and the service was excellent.

Tram managed our conveyancing services for the purchase of a recent investment property. Tram is extremely efficient and organised and kept me up to date with proceedings throughout the entire process.
I would use her services again and recommend her to anyone without hesitation.

This review is for La Porchetta, Altona Meadows VIC

Cheap with a capital C! I am always surprised at how little such a large amount of food costs. Not quite 5 star dining here but a great casual place to go on a small budget! They also have a playground for the kids which is handy.

Approximate cost: $10

This review is for Telstra BigPond, Sydney NSW

verified email - 02 Mar 2008

I arranged for Bigpond Broadband over the phone and agreed to a 12 month contract. Telstra are now insisting that I agreed to a 24 month plan which I dipute 100 percent. We all know that the call centre operators have sales targets to meet - at the end of the day, it's my word against theirs and of course 'they' receive comission for selling longer contracts!! Conflict of interest here!!
They are holding to me to this plan, despite my protests.
Not only are they deceitful but they are very poor value.

Great atmosphere, freindly staff, good menu and reasonably priced.I regularly frequent this cafe - it's nice and close to the beach and there is always an upbeat vibe about the place.

This review is for Werribee Open Range Zoo, Werribee VIC

verified email - 02 Mar 2008

Fantastic set up! The behind the sceneds tours, especially the Giraffe tall encounter, is amazing. Great zoo to take young kids or older people that don't enjoy walking for any great distance.

Approximate cost: $25 (extra for behind the scenes tours)
