Long queues wouldn't be so long if they opened more checkouts, would they?

Hi Maddison Dwyer, I thank you and the Senior Discount Club for these worthwhile initiative and wish to all of them, a well deserved outcome. An additional petition that should be included is a push for a UNIVERSAL PENSION. The present system excludes too many needy pension age people who, for...

It's a shame that the "NO STANDING ANY TIME" sign is missing... I guess that the only way out would be with an elicopter...

I would like to correct that; Centrelink may be open on any day of the week, but hardly ever they do any work at all.

The Banks, to start with, make it pretty well impossible to do in person transactions, and then they claim that its decrease is the reason why they are closing the branches? GIVE US A BREAK!!! (We were not born yesterday...)

I couldn't agree with you more Lance! I would go even further and say: close most of Centrelink Offices, sack their employees including CEOs, Managers, Security guards, etc. The Money saved would be ASTRONOMICAL... and because I already hear someone saying that some people would unfairly benefit...

Is this the new GRANDDAD JOKE OF THE DAY? When they eventually employ the 3000 extra stuff, I am sure that their job will be : "Devise new and better ways to slow down the system even more" Getting help fast (or at all) from Centrelink? I DOUBT IT VERY MUCH!!! it's NOT in their DNA

Jon the Club!! I was told by a Federal Minister that people in the category I worked, usually have lots of cash under the mattress, so I should look there to start with. Needless to say he is never going to get my vote again. Unfortunately that does not helps much...

If I ever became Prime Minister, the first thing I would do Is close all the Centerlink Offices of Australia, sell all the Centerlink Buildings, sack all their employees and managers and with the money saved by not having to pay their exorbitant salaries (for doing nothing), a modest pension...

Ha-Ha - Thanks, but seriosly I never went to english school in Australia, what I know is what I picked up during the 60 odd years at work in Australia. My preferred language is still the one I learned from birth. My grandchildren make a lot of fun with the many mistakes I make, but that's life...

I am sorry, my english is not very good, I never went to english school, but I think that the letter they sent means exactly what I said. Check the attachment

Are you trying to tell me that we should take a gun to force them to accept the delivery of a simple letter?

Of course, It is your prerogative not to believe it, but unfortunately it is the way it happened. Why would I be violent or threatening when I was only trying to deliver a letter? At one stage, I was circled by 3 Centrelink employees and a Security Guard close by overlooking the argument. All of...

Sometime ago I worked for someone who was taking advantage of his customers in an unfair way. I left that job 15 days after I started it (not 15 years after). If I had kept working there any longer, I would have considered myself, and would have been, as guilt as my ex-employer. Anyone who keeps...

Initially I thought Centrelink was there to assist and help the average person to navigate this confusing area. I was very wrong, they are there to frustrate people and make it as difficult as possible so that in the end they give up and miss out on what would be their right to have.

CAN ANYONE BETTER THIS ONE? I had to provide some documents, urgently requested by Centerlink, and they would not accepted them over the counter because, according to them, they had to be posted even though one of the options of the requesting letter was: "Visit our service centre". As I...

Very true!!! It is a pity that too many of us found out too late...

3D Olympic Games This one goes back in years to when the Olympic Games were also televised in 3D and 3D glasses were somewhat popular. Pebles thinks that watching the games in 3D is ok, but cannot understand why Horses can compete, but not Dogs...

Every time (often) I get a survey to fill in from my local shopping centre, I point out that as they (Shopping Centres) allocate parking areas for Disabled, Seniors, Pregnant Women, People With Strollers, Etc., they should also allocate a Parking Area for these "Trucks" away from the normal cars...
