Funny! Great shot.

Beware of a scam that says you owe money to the ATO, but you will get a discount if you pay immediately into a nominated account (link provided) and your whole debt will be wiped. Such a message is definitely not from the ATO. They do not give you a “discount” if you pay quickly - they fine...

Reminders: If it doesn’t have your name, address and tax file number on it, it is not from the ATO. If it is a text, it is not from the ATO. If it tells you to update your details via email, it is not from the ATO. If it says you have a huge refund coming if you act now, it is not from the...

Unfortunately, I came down with whooping cough early in 2025. I was very ill for about 3 weeks, hardly able to get around the house, much less leave it or drive anywhere. Antibiotics helped my recovery, but symptoms of weakness, lethargy and generally feeling ill continued for another few...

A friend was having major problems with Telstra service in his Sydney city apartment. Over a few months, he explained the problems to several operatives on the phone - nothing happened. He then called and asked for the section where he could cancel his account. After that, his problems were...

Great article! Fascinating stuff. Thank you.

Telstra lost my business many years ago. I briefly tried Optus which was just as bad. I landed on Vodafone and have been very happy with their service ever since. I buy a mobile phone outright then I pay Vodafone as the service carrier. To give you an example of costs, in 2014, I paid $48.99...
