Verified Revitive Medic Coach Great for circulation, but skip the "Medic Coach" model—accessories are poor value. I have used the Revitive Medic Coach daily for two months, and the core foot and lower leg… stimulation is excellent. It has been instrumental in eliminating my ankle swelling, improving circulation, and almost entirely stopping the nightly foot and calf cramps I used to suffer from. However, the peripheral accessories included with this top-of-the-range model are a major disappointment. Specifically, the TENS/EMS electrode pads are made with incredibly flimsy wiring. Despite following the instructions, mine were rendered useless after just four uses. The device registers them as connected, but as soon as the TENS function is activated, I receive an error message to "Attach your body pads" (which are already attached). This suggests a break in the delicate internal wiring. I was further disappointed to find that while the main unit has a two-year warranty, these peripheral attachments are specifically excluded. With replacement pads costing $20–$40 plus postage—and a projected life of only 30 uses—the value proposition is very poor. If you need a TENS function, you are better off buying a dedicated standalone device for $40. Final Verdict: The foot massage technology works wonders, but save yourself $100 and buy the basic model. The "Medic Coach" upgrade accessories are let down by poor build quality and restrictive warranty terms. |

Verified Tyroola Rare Tyres Were Available Only At Tyroola! – My Comforser 235/40ZR19 96W CF710 tyres were impossible to find at any physical tyre retailer in Brisbane but Tyroola were able to supply these hard-to-access tyres for my car.… There was a hitch with the delivery, however, as the delivery agent apparently failed to pick up the tyres from Tyroola at the appointed time. I therefore had to wait almost a further week for my tyres to be delivered. Apart from that, I was happy with the overall service and communication with Tyroola Customer Support. I was also extremely happy with the price I paid for the tyres after securing the 15% Australia Day discount promotion. One final comment I must add is that the tyres were fresh out of the factory, having been manufactured in November 2024, which was a pleasant relief given some negative reviews that Tyroola sells tyres which are beyond their "use by" date. |

Verified Total Adblock Deceptive Behaviour by Total Adblock to Trick New Subscribers – An enticing advertisement for Total Adblock appeared on my phone offering the service for only $1.99. I decided to sign up and pay via PayPal. As my payment was being processed, I… was offered a range of other expensive Total Adblock services which I declined one-by-one. Only at this stage did it become apparent that my $1.99 subscription was just for one month and that there would be automated payments taken from my Visa Card after the first month. If this had been made clear in the first place, I would have NEVER signed up with Total Adblock in the first place! To make matters worse, once installed, Total Adblock disabled my VPN which actually pays me $15 per month for monitoring my internet traffic as a member of the Ipsos Iris Panel. In the end, I uninstalled Total Adblock and reenabled my VPN. As I did not end up using Total Adblock, and it caused all sorts of problems in my system, I request a refund of my $1.99 and for the automated future monthly deductions from my Visa Card to be canceled. I have received confirmation emails from both PayPal and Total Adblock that the automatic deductions from my Visa Card have been canceled. Despite this, Total Adblock has questioned Product Review as to whether I am a genuine customer and has requested proof that I actually purchased their product. The Invoice Number of my purchase was INV48892583. I can easily provide much more evidence than this of my purchase if it is required... |

LifePoints Unjust Account Termination and Lack of Transparency by LifePoints – I am extremely disappointed with my experience with LifePoints, and I feel compelled to share my story to caution others about their lack of transparency and questionable… practices. I was a dedicated member of LifePoints, diligently participating in surveys and engaging with the platform. To my shock, my account was unfairly terminated based on what they claim to be "Terms and Condition violations." Upon reaching out for clarification, I received a canned response stating that the violations had been "confirmed" and my account would remain closed. What troubles me the most is their complete unwillingness to disclose the alleged violations or provide any substantial evidence to support their claims. In their response, they vaguely mention an "overwhelming" amount of evidence, yet conveniently avoid any specifics. It's deeply concerning that a platform can make such serious accusations without allowing members to defend themselves or even know what they are being accused of. LifePoints prides itself on putting the member first, yet their actions suggest otherwise. They tout their commitment to transparency, but their refusal to reveal their investigation methods or provide concrete evidence contradicts this claim. This lack of transparency raises serious questions about the integrity of their decision-making process and their respect for their members. While they mention the need to prevent circumvention of security measures, it's essential for a legitimate and ethical platform to strike a balance between security and fairness. By withholding crucial information and denying members the opportunity to address accusations, LifePoints is effectively denying them due process. I urge potential users to seriously consider these concerns before investing time and effort into LifePoints. Unexplained and unjust account terminations can happen to anyone, and the lack of transparency in their practices is a red flag. As consumers, we deserve better treatment and clearer communication from platforms we engage with. In conclusion, I am deeply disappointed by LifePoints' lack of transparency, their unwillingness to disclose evidence, and their hasty termination of accounts without proper recourse. My experience has left me disillusioned and wary of participating in any future endeavors with this platform. |

MyOpinions Let's See What Happens After the 72 Hour Evaluation Period – As a retired teacher and pensioner, I look forward to answering surveys to supplement my pension. Usually, rewards are promptly redeemed into my PayPal account by survey companies… such as Curious Cat, Pay Poll, Survey Junkie, Prize Rebel, and Octopus Group. With My Opinions, however, they require 72 hours to "evaluate" my account, whatever that means, before they will allow me to transfer the accrued rewards into my PayPal account. Seriously, what is there to "evaluate"??? If they can't trust the word of a retired teacher who has spent 45 years educating the youth of Australia then they should not be in the survey business. A reading of other people's reviews on My Opinions does not fill me with any confidence that I will be paid for the many hours spent diligently and honestly filling out survey after survey. At this stage, I am willing to give My Opinions the benefit of the doubt and see what happens after 72 hours. If I am paid out, I will put it down to an "administrative hoop" that I had to jump through to claim my payment, and I will willingly revise this review and give a glowing recommendation to this Australian-based service. Don't let me down, My Opinions!!!!! One day after I wrote this review, My Opinions has added yet another barrier to redeeming funds. They now also want me to verify a photo of my driver's license and a selfie photo with a partner organization of theirs called "Veriff". So what has happened to their original requirement of requiring 72 hours to "evaluate" my account??? How can they justify changing the rules within 24 hours??? I'll wait for them to explain that to their many disgruntled subscribers ... I have jumped through the final hoop given by My Opinions and completed verification with Veriff by photographing my driver's license and providing a selfie through their online app. As luck would have it, my verification was accepted, and, just a few minutes later, the $20 redemption was safely in my PayPal account. I have thus changed my rating to three stars. I would have rated My Opinions higher if they provided a smoother redemption experience. However, for whatever reasons, they have their own procedures which they choose to follow. I can now look forward with confidence to completing more surveys with My Opinions. |
