Product Review レビュー 

An Australian citizen resident in NZ, home to visit family. Bought a Coles mobile/Optus sim to use and save on roaming charges. No problem till activation, Must have an Australian Credit or Debit card to activate so completely useless. Doesn’t say this anywhere on packaging. Have bought local sim cards all round the world with no problem but not in Australia. Rip off.

I did an IQ test and it appears as MYIQand was charged 77cents on 24/2/26 and then $37.99 on 3/3/26 and 28/3/26. I never agreed to this and find it is a big scam. I demand a repayment and cancellation of this fraud account this is an ongoing charge to PayPal
As of 8/4/26 PayPal has not stopped this scam

HCF signed up to their hosp and extras cover. Found a better coverage for my wife and myself subsequently rang up HCF to cancel within their cooling off period.
Waited on line for twenty minutes then spoke to a representative who wanted to know why we wished to cancel. I outlined my reasoning for cancellation she said she completely understood but I needed to speak to someone else in another department. Waited another five minutes to connect to a young chap who needed to go through my reasoning again. He then said look for a little bit extra we could have the same plan which would make it sixty dollars more expensive than the plan I found, I said that I just wished to cancel my HCF plan.
He kept babbling on about other HCF offers and would not just cancel my plan. Finally out of sheer frustration I hung up. I then received a recorded message stating that he had not finished cancelling my policy and that I would need to start again from scratch, this after being on the phone for over 30 minutes.
Appalling customer service

I am beyond frustrated with the customer service from Booking.com.

I was originally told to contact the property directly to organise a cancellation. I did exactly that, received written confirmation that my booking was cancelled and that a refund would be issued — yet no refund ever came.

When I followed up, I was then told I needed to contact Agoda. After contacting them, they advised the refund had to be processed through Booking.com. I was sent back and forth with no accountability from either side.

I called Booking.com six times trying to resolve this. Each time I asked to speak to a supervisor, I was placed on hold for up to 30+ minutes, only for the call to drop out. Towards the end, my calls were being answered and then immediately hung up on. Instead of resolving anything, they simply sent me the property’s phone number again — something I had already actioned and provided proof of.

To make matters worse, I was also charged $49 just to call their customer service line in the UK, as there is no accessible Australian contact number. Paying to chase a refund that I was already told I would receive is completely unacceptable.

This went on for four weeks leading up to my travel date, with no resolution. Every time I called, I was told something different.

This was also during an incredibly difficult time — my mother was diagnosed with terminal cancer, and I am her enduring medical power of attorney. Travelling was no longer possible as I needed to be by her side for appointments and care.

I have been a loyal customer for 17 years, but after this experience, I will never use Booking.com again. Completely unacceptable service, especially when support is actually needed.

I strongly urge anyone considering One Solomon to think carefully about the level of service you expect before placing your business with them.

My initial contact, Kathleen, was responsive and helpful right up until installation day — which is when the first major issue occurred. I had confirmed with her multiple times that the most important component, the dog door, would be included and fitted at installation. I was assured it would be.

On the day, the dog door was not supplied. I immediately contacted the office, expressed my concerns to the receptionist, and was told I would receive a call back. Instead, 11 hours later, I received a generic message apologising for the inconvenience and advising I would be contacted “in the coming days.”

The following day (10/3), I emailed outlining my concerns about the complete lack of customer service. One Solomon advertises “platinum service,” yet my email — correctly addressed — went unanswered. On 17/3, I finally received a text advising the missing component was ready and installation could be completed 18/3 . This was now over six weeks since I had accepted the quote and paid both the deposit and second instalment. Kathleen had assured me installation would occur within 3–4 weeks.

When the job was finally completed, the tradesman emphasised repeatedly that I needed to pay immediately because he would “get in trouble with the office.” The next day, I received multiple calls and emails chasing the final payment — despite still having received no response to my original call or email. I sent a second, more direct email.

Only then did Joe Grima, Customer Service Manager, call. His apology was perfunctory at best, and the follow‑up email quoted the “Trade Practices Act” as though this were rectification work. It wasn’t. It was a clear example of poor customer service, lack of accountability, and the customer being pushed aside and pressured.

To add insult to injury, four business days after the job was completed, I was referred to a debt collection agency — simply because I asked for consideration and compensation for the delays and the unacceptable service I received.

Thank you, One Solomon, for demonstrating exactly what “platinum service” does not look like.

Speedx totally untrustworthy. Why are they still allowed to operate!

Aeroguard blue light fly trap completely useless.

Adidas F50 Elite laceless Lamine Yamal football boots…my son was so happy to get these. But, after a brief trial run, the bottom started peeling off. Very disappointing. We took them back to Ultrafootball, who informed us that a print on the box states that this can happen (we didn’t see the print, so it must not be so conspicuous).

Got a quote for outdoor blind and triple lock security door in Nov 25. Accepted quote in dec 25 paid $1700 deposit work was due to be completed by Jan 26. It is now march 26 no work done no products delivered and no refund months of excuses more than 12 no shows won't return calls. Promises of door ti be done blind can't be done promises of refund not yet received. Don't hire this business don't give them money.

This is a scam company and sells inferior products.
This so call all vision glasses they advertise on YouTube, who should also be held accountable for allowing such shonky company to advertise on the platform. Even after many negative reviews on trust pilot they are still advertising on YouTube.. pull your head in YouTube.
They kept giving me the run around for my refund and finally I wrote to the service email with no response.
This is unethical practices, false advertising and a total scam. May Cathy, from service have a fine lunch on me from my refund. May karma get your business and it will.

I did a comparison with I select on health insurance and talked to Mitchell who was incredibly caring and helpful his customer service was second to none he wasn't able to find a better health fund than the one we have And he recommended we stay on same plan

I'm normally an XL/38 in all pants/underwear, but went larger to 3XL based on wanting a comfy boxer-fit like in the Ares adverts.
I tried one pair (over an XL fit pair of clean jocks just in case) and it was clear that these are not appropriately sized and closer to a Large in international standard sizing. Sizing needs a review as these are at least 2 sizes off the mark.

I immediatly messaged Ares, followed up twice more and got no responses forcing me to file a PayPal dispute 8 days later.

Avoid this dodgy seller that does not stand by their own guarentees and refund policy.

BEFORE you purchase a Nutriblend Pro.
The product did not perform as advertised.
To date I am unable to achieve a 100% refund for the product.
Before purchasing read the REFUND POLICY!
I requested refund based on this fact.
I have been receiving email’s from the company offering: -
instant refund of 45% (37.78 usd) of the whole order - 70% of the whole value, which amounts to 58.78 usd.
I want 100% refund and paid return post for the product.
The whole experience has been very distressing and continues to be so.
I sincerely regret purchasing this product.

Denied a temu review because I used the word 'crap'! I use this word again to describe product review.

I received text from uber indicating that a car required had arrived. I indicated that I have never used uber for transportation. To my shock I than received a fee for not cancelling my trip in their required time… further I paid a membership fee over one month ago in January of $96 that gives discount on (uber eats) but when ordering today no discount was applied. When I tried to ring their help line a voice message indicating that they would not talk to me because I was not a member. Seems that Uber has a glitch in their system… can someone help from their help line

Plumber came to unblock my drainpipes from General home Services, arrive Saturday lunchtime, half did the job and said his machine stopped working and someone else will have to come out Monday Arvo to finish off. Charged me half the price on the Saturday for half unblocking the pipes. The next plumber came on the Monday and straight away told me that my pipes had co-lapsed, showed me on the camera. Then told me it was a major job costing around $7000. Wanted a Deposit straight away, silly me gave him$1000. Something felt off so I did some digging and found some reviews that weren't good. So I called someone else out and they put a camera down my pipes and told me there was nothing wrong with them.
I think they thought because I was a women, I wouldn't check, but I did. I asked for my money back and was told they had to get permits for the job and there was no money left. I asked for the permits that they said they got, and they sent me an E-mail stating that it was PVC protection permit. Doubt that. Please everyone make sure you don't get stung like me.

Red smoke alarms.

After one smoke detector was continually alarming I contacted RED. Who told me they can alarm with humidity or dust or insects.
They've sent out the Pro version which looking back, should have been installed initially as it's far superior. I've also added a heat alarm to the system.
So hopefully we won't have any more false alarms.
