Ok, I know times are tough but for a single aged pensioner, our pension rises are a lot better than the raise’s we got from the previous government, who kept their feet firmly on our head’s to keep us in our place. It’s hard enough to to make your pension spin out but it would have been...

This is nothing new, these supposed waiting time would be a great improvement and it didn’t start just because Labor is in office now. Centrelink is well known for the long wait times, 15-20 minutes is a short time to wait. The truth of the matter is more like 45–60 minutes. Fortunately for me I...

Is anyone out there going to listen too what I’ve been trying too for over 10 years now, tell Pensioner’s live in Government Housing, they are being Ripped off and it was the Liberal Government of the day who decided, that now we would have to pay rent from our Supplements. This all happened...

Of course, I am lucky enough to have a Public Housing home, I have lived here for 20 years this year. I’m on the age pension and no other income. I live in Perth Western Australia and in a really great area. For this I’m very grateful. What I don’t like is up until about 10 years ago we only got...

I have 1 of these mop and bucket and they are great. When I wash my floors I use the cheapest nappy wash I can find about, 1 put a scupe in the bucket along with Nature’s way eucalyptus wool wash which is also pretty cheap. I’ve been using this concoction for years too wash my floors. Not only...

As an age Pensioner without Super, I had too stop working at 48, my Doctor’s and Specialist’s, all wrote letters to my Super Fund, telling them why I would not be able to hold a job of any sort again. I had the princely princely sum of $2,400 in Super and I also had an insurance component...

I’ve had more than one of these Exact Scum trying too get my details . I just told them my bank does not make calls like this to their customers and they hung up straight away. I don’t care if it is a legitimate call or email, I don’t trust anyone who cold call or send me an email. I never open...

I had this happen too me just 10 days ago. I ordered for delivery, 6 pieces of original KFC, 1 🍟 and a small gravy. When I received my delivery, I got Zinger Burger’s , and 2 large Chips. So I emailed them straight away saying, I had got the wrong order and I would like what I ordered...

In my my humble opinion , if you are think old, you’ll be old. I also believe as far as exercise goes, exercising your brain is the most important exercise you can do. I know there are people who don’t have this choice but if you’re just sitting watching the TV all day you are missing out. I...

I’m sorry to the bearer of bad news but they actually take 25% of your pension in rent and too add insult to injury, but around 10 years ago they started taking 25% out of Utilities and Pension Supplements. Before this we only ever paid rent on our Basic Pension not our supplements it was bought...

The Government could help we pensioner’s in State Housing by giving us back the rent we have to out of our Pension Supplements. Up until about 10 years ago, we only paid rent on our Basic Pension and then when the Barnett Liberal Premiere decided in 1 feld sweep to start charging us rent on our...

This has been happening to me for years, I don’t know how many complaints I’ve made to Australia Post but every time I ring them about this, they can pull up all my complaints I have to them about this.I live in Perth Western Australia. When you get 1 of these cards,they take your parcel back to...
