They have a lot of organic fruit and vegetables either from their own farm in Hall or from other supplier as well as other farm fresh fruit and vegetables. They also stock other stuff, like pasta and nuts and fruits and chocolate (Green and Blacks). They have another store in Curtin. Excellent fresh produce, usually very fresh and really cheap - they're actually cheaper than the online organic grocery stores!

I have put $30 as the cost, but it just depends on what you buy.

Approximate cost: $30.00

This review is for Canberra Day Spa, Canberra ACT

I go there to get massages on a regular basis and some other treatments on a sporadic basis. The massage therapists are very good. They listen to your needs and provide a good service. It's a nice environment at the casino - quiet and soothing.

Approximate cost: $80

I somehow got a big nail in my tyre recently.

I called JaxQuickFit Tyres and the guy said I could come in straight away for them to have a look at the nail and see if I needed to get a new tyre.

I went there. The guy had a look at the tyre, removed the nail and did some testing to the tyre and informed me that it had not puncture the actual inner bit of the tyre, so the tyre did not need to be replaced. That was excellent.

The guys there are very helpful and friendly. Highly recommended.

This review is for LiveIn Property Management, Dickson ACT

If you want to use a good property management team, DO NOT use Livein Property. They are obnoxious!

Tegan is a completely rude and obnoxious property manager (if you can call her that). She talks over the top of you constantly and wont let you speak, is not very professional and childishly hung up the phone on me. Now this was because she couldnt negotiate a suitable time for viewing an apartment. Very poor customer service. Very poor!

It shouldnt be that difficult to negotiate a suitable time without having to resort to be being rude, unprofessional, childish and obnoxious!

I wont be using them again. For any reason and I suggest anyone else not be fooled by the fake smiles, because that's all they are - completely FAKE.

Approximate cost: $Too much

This review is for Artful Dentistry, McKellar ACT

The first appointment, the dentist was very nice. The second appointment, he was horrible. Treated me with the utmost disrespect. I am terrified of going to the dentist and he just made that fear all the worse. Thanks for nothing.

This review is for GNC Livewell, Glebe NSW

Excellent shopping experience. I was surprised to find a GNC store that also stored fresh fruit and vegetables, plus all other dry groceries. It's just like a health food store with groceries. Excellent. Plus, when you become a member, you get 10% off every purchase, which soon adds up to a nice discount. The staff are really nice too.

Brilliant place - we need more of these organics supermarkets everywhere!! The food is good quality, I can find everything I need and the staff are really helpful. I shop for almost all of my groceries (veges/fruit and dry goods) here. I really enjoy shopping here - it's actually a really nice experience shopping here.

This review is for AAPT, Sydney NSW

I have to say AAPT were recently horrendous to deal with.

I closed my telephone and DSL account with them as I was moving, yet they continued to charge me even after I had cancelled my services with them!!

When I found the extra charges on my statement, I called AAPT again to request they stop charging my account and to inform them that I had already cancelled my services. They did indeed see that I had cancelled my services, but their billing system continued to keep charging me anyway. They informed me that even though they were going to try to cancel my services again, they could not guarantee that their system wouldn't continue to charge me forever!

I went to the Telecommunications Ombudsman who referred me to the complaints department at AAPT, who promised to return my money. Many, many emails later, after they kept promising and promising (apparently it wasnt their fault, someone else didnt do their job, yeah right!) I simply gave up and went to my bank and asked them to do something about it.

My bank were marvellous. They were able to get me the money back quite quickly. I had all the appropriate documentation (all the email showing AAPT were going to give me the money back and hadnt) and the customer care person at the bank just made it happen really quickly. No thanks to AAPT.

I will never use AAPT again - they were horrendous to deal with! I still cannot believe how terrible their service was and how I was getting billed for something I did not use!!
