Australia

I’m trying to enjoy the best of both places like hitting the beach and snow skiing and just about anything and everything, this is going to be like my most advantageous, craziest vacation ever.
I’m thinking around March, April, or May??

First when you try out their online tests, they tell you, that you are approved. Than when you sign up and shell out $299.00, they tell you that you need a migration consultant and that it will cost you additional $100 / 30mts.
When you tell them that you are not interested with their service, they do not refund you your deposit and accuse you of downloading some pre-made PDF forms.
Is there any way besides contacting MARA to file complaints against these thieves ?
This is an absolute case of bait and switch, now I am out $299.00 for some online company to tell me I am not approved for migration to Australia unless I do not consult their online agent.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Fortunately, I have saved all transcripts and I will be mailing those out with my complaint.

Hi, I'm planning to do a road trip around Australia either sometime next year or the year after.

I live in Canberra so I'll be leaving from here.

I'm looking for any suggestions, destinatons, attractions, off the tourist areas including any hidden gems like other attractions that most tourists don't know about.

I've only got a normal car with a UHF CB Radio installed. So can't go off road or anything like normal 4WD driving people do.

If anyone has any suggestions or anything else let me know.

I also have a group on facebook which everyone is welcome to join.

Discover Australia:

Looking forward to hearing some ideas and suggestions soon.

Thank you

I have lived in qld all my life and am getting so over it...I hate the humid heat and summers that go forever, I hate that brisbane our city offers next to nothing in terms of parks, museums, variety and affordability. I have visited melb twice in past yr and seem to love it but I know holidayingi s diff to living so I was wondering what your opinions are? I have been looking at real etsate and I know that houses are ALOT cheaper than here ( i live ins unshine coast) and i know paying for tourist prices constantly is wearin thin also..as well my university sucks and altho a laid back lifestyle on beach is good it isnt so great when your young n tryin to get somewhere..any thoughts would b great

For Malaysians travellers, do you experience difficulties in sending sms from Sidney to Malaysia and do you need to do any settings to send or receive sms there?

For Australians friends, beside Optus, which are the other telco networks available in Sidney? Do you have any problems before sms to your friends overseas.

I am asking this because with the assumption that if you are using Optus network, you might not be able to sms to overseas friends (who are using prepaid cards) and their networks are not supported by Optus.

Thank you for your help in advance :)
