Good luck

Nope as per one of the comments "No price No purchase" I'd go elsewhere out of principle- same as if they want to add a sneaky surcharge without letting me know!

And I bet if they are caught there won't be an $825,000 fine (if any consequences at all), unlike the poor ebike business owner for non-compliance (if he hires out ebikes with batteries that potentially may catch fire he could cop such a harsh fine- a soft target it seems gets harsher penalties...

Lucky for you they never came back & tried to torch your house like this story!

Yer I'm all for safety, but I'm still trying to get my head around the $825,000 fine for non compliance, a business trying to do the right thing, as well as survive & pay bills (& paying taxes, etc) gets harsher penalties than the criminals these times (aggravated burglaries, car thefts...

If we could get 8% return on our super without admin fees, charges, etc every year wouldn't it be grand? Or if we could get 4% on our bank interest without paying so much tax on it how good would that be! If only we could have a crystal ball to know EXACTLY what the share markets (& super, etc)...

I'm not sure these days but I once put my super on hold many yrs ago so there weren't the usual fees, charges etc (as I couldn't afford to contribute) - has she contacted the super company or an ombudsman, financial advisor or such)?

It's not just super companies, but so many big business are legalised robbers, untouchable (govt do nothing to protect the hard working tax payers- tho they try to convince us that they do by having a royal commission into supermarkets, banks & the likes & what comes of those? Yet if we hard...

Not a problem if you don't use self serve checkouts!

Was thinking this too

A1 perhaps another level of Control over the people & what can we do about it now, the masses are accepting & embracing A1! What will be next?

It stinks for those customers either way & would be a nasty shock, especially if it's not a genuine error but I guess if those customers had been overcharged accidentally they'd be wanting their overpayment refunded so it's probably fair but a bitter pill

Court system got it so wrong, what a disgrace! There is no room in this place for people without enough money to survive they just get punished! So true re murderers being allowed to go free (& protecting criminals whilst penalising the battlers)! 30% voted this govt in - it's all a wrought...

Janon Bryce suggestion makes more sense! Govt cannot be trusted!

Agree, but with a housing shortage already, would have to think this move will deter people from renting out their home/room in their home & thus potentially leaving even more people homeless! Ludicrous!

Yer the law is powerless to intervene yet (as per story above this one) if victims intervene (ie stick up for/defend themselves) they are penalised...disgraceful laws

Hmm gotta wonder if all students are eligible or just certain nationalities! Pity this wasn't on offer when my kids had to leave for the city to go to uni, but then again he/we wasn't/weren't eligible for anything much, which sucked considering those living in the city didn't have to fork out...

Good for you if it works, but I find it hard to trust - how do we know we are not getting scammed, or spied on/personal data breaches are so common these days?

Govt's have created this mess for us-not us hard working lower/middle working class Those pollies & ex pollies are unaffected by the havoc they have caused on us bit want us to pay for their mistakes/damage done, as always! They should be paying for their own mistakes,but of course they won't...

Thanks for the info! Oh wow, sounds like you got a good deal on the battery $2500 is affordable - so does this mean you don't have any power bills at all (being independent/offf grid now)?
