Australasian Relocations (Austrelo)
July 27, 2007
I recently moved from Canberra to London, and had an unpleasant experience. Australasian Removals were fine... until they had my stuff, and then the standard slipped. They would ignore my emails for up to two weeks at a time, and they refused to provide me with a receipt specifying how many boxes had been collected. I emailed and emailed and emailed asking for some kind of inventory, and finally, over a month after my goods were picked up they provided one (long after it could be verified against anything except my own list, of course... read full review »

Kmart had coupons which state: Get a $10 Kmart gift card when you buy a Duracell Saver pack and 2 participating P&G products. It states 1 per TRANSACTION.

Eddies 1 vs 100 is ultimately a good show however a certain aspect has been raised to my attention. I dont believe that the help 'ask the mob' is a legitimate help. In fact it is downright embarrassing. It knocks out the one answer it obviously isn't and the mob is able to make up any answer that pleases them. Completely and utterly useless.
