Marketplace is the biggest scam site there is. A huge scam is foreign advertisers look up real estate in Australua and offer eg a luxury unit in Manly or the Dydney CBD or a family home for rent at $450 pw (dead giveaway). When you ask to view the "seller" asks for an upfront payment to "secure"...

Victoria's debt was well and truly blown way before Covid and the lockdowns. If you recall, he signed a MOU with China for the Belts and Roads initiative which he was hoping would solve his debt problems. Then along came Covid and all the related problems and the Federal Government put the cap...

Bit of a tricky one this. Years ago I owned a townhouse on the Gold Coast. I never once received a full month's rent from the agent because there were things that needed constant repairs. I accepted everything at face value for a year and then threw my hands in the air when I was being charged...

Working separately is a good idea. Difficult for any couple to sustain a relationship if they're living and working together 24/7.

If it were me, I would get a pro bono lawyer to write a letter advising you will not be paying until they a human being , and not a computer explained in detail sxactly how the debt occurred and was calculated. I would also advise they can take me to court if they wish. Put the onus on them...

Happened to me on a trip to London. I received full reimbursement without mych hassle over there and nought a new suitcase in London. But I didn't travel Qantas. I try to avoid them and prefer Singapore.

Jetstar? Forget it!

I've waited around 1.5 hours more times than I can remember. 20 mins would be a bonus. Plus, I've ended up several times with someone who couldn't help me (inexperienced? Lack of training?) and had to to be transferred and start the whole waiting game again! Centrelink is horrendous.

The supermarkets are monoliths whi have exploited not only their workers but their customers for far too long. It is long overdue for them to be held accountable for their outrageous behaviour and taken down more rhan a peg or two. The fact the governments have done nothing about it tells you...

Unfortunately, I have discovered that the Retail and Hospitality industries are appalling when it comes to staff treatment. The practices they employ have obviously been going on for years.

All I can say about this horrendous scheme and complete disregard fir human welfare is that every single politician and public servant involved in its illegal implementation, "management" and imposition on unsuspecting individuals should be prosecuted to the nth degree in the criminal courts...

Good grief! Easy answer is for supermarkets to just go back to the old paper bags we got back in pre 90s. No handles. Oroblem solved. You just picked them up in your arms, put them in your trolley (or not if you only had a couple) and took them to the car. Why carry paper bags using handles...

Why are peopke shocked? The big supermarkets are robbing us blind! 25%+ mark up on everyday items like baked beabs, cereals etc etc. No excuse for it (transport costs excuse doesn't wash). Four small SPC baked beans were $3.99. Went to $5 and are now $6. Cereals that were already expensive at...

Oh. That's not unusual. You can spend days, weeks and months on the phone tith the telcos trying to get things fixed, amended, or whatever. They are the most inept pathetic businesses out there a dreadful experience if you have to deal with them.

100% Coles. The stuffing is delicious whereas I have to throw the Woolies stuffing away. That's a very important factor because when the chook is finished with, I put the carcass and all the bits, including the skin and stuffing, into a pot. I then add whatever vegies I have, a litre of chicken...

Everybody I speak to, and myself included, hate the way DJs and Myers has segregated their clothing etc into "mini designer label" stores. For example, if we want a green dress for a wedding, we do not want to traipse from one label to another. It is confusing and exhausting. If we want matching...
