different to many others – My experience was fine. Got sick of drop outs & slow service & upgraded to faster, more expensive . Speaking to a local operator IS AN advantage. Internet providers contract with…

you to provide a service but some get away without doing it perhaps thinking you can't respond. Beware as I found out- WIFI can be affected by the thickness of your walls so older buildings can be difficult. Good service and excellent at trouble shooting with local staff.

Bloomex is a fraud – Do not deal with Bloomex Bloomex operates under different names and the impression they are separate entities. They are not based in Australia. Their "agents" falsely claimed to…

be based wherever you are but are in the Philippines. Their websites are set-up to be deliberately deceptive in the information they give by inferring they are in the suburb where you want flowers sent. The "same day delivery" is a fraud. "Same day delivery" is only if you are in the suburb their warehouse is based which are Not warehouses but one small office so they could never do "same day delivery". Impossible They get around this by always claiming "so sorrow- we'll deliver the next day" but you would have to be very lucky for that to happen Bloomex are taking advantage of people's desire to send flowers for special occasions, weddings, funerals birthdays etc and are clearly causing immense grief for their customers. Various State Department Of Fair Trading need to crack down on Bloomex and you will find they have had 100s and 100s of complaints about them. Avoid Bloomex at all costs.

good & bad – My partner & I thought we'd give Australia Online a go as we had read good reviews. With the slowest service my partner found it frustrating as she makes her living via the net. …

Australia Online has OK customer service. In the end- service no cheaper or better than any others.

I love No Birds – A bit disappointed to see some negative reviews for Bayswater / No Birds car hire. Obviously I cannot talk for other's experience but I have used No Birds a dozen times to date…

over 7 years when my car is being serviced or out of action and I really love- as a person who has hired cars all over the world- No Birds service. I've only used the Sydney Kings Cross outlet but I doubt all the other are any different. To start with- they MUST be the cheapest car hire firm but even better- they are quick and no nonsense and if you book online ( so easy) you are in and out of their HQ really within 15 minutes. Always friendly staff and I really like that you don't get a lot of choices: the always reliable Corollas, new RAVs if you want something larger, a Toyota Mini Van and this week which I needed badly , a new Toyota HiLux for $50 a day!!

after sales service is a shocker – Kogan's real problem is their after-sales service is appalling and getting a response from them is an ordeal (that's if you get one). I'm actually pretty annoyed to see Kogan…

pasting form responses on here as that is about the only thing you will ever hear from them.

I'm not naive enough to not know most of the electric products we now buy come from China but with retail outlets you have a source to go to if there is a problem. Even the majority of on-line sellers have an Aussie base to complain to but Kogan's is non existent.

Kogan may be clever in his business dealings but much of it is hype & promotion for his re-badged itens and once you have it in your possession you can forget it if there is a problem.

Now I have had real hit and miss with items I've purchased from Kogan but in fact no more or less than other outlets: except the other outlets have a physical outlet to complain to including .oo.au who once had stores but are now online but they still have an HQ where you can turn up and physically get a response.

So my advice is customers should avoid Kogan at all costs until they do something positive about their customer service. There is plenty of competition and if Kogan wants to treat it's customer s so arrogantly- shop elswhere.
