This review is for Teralba Service Station, Teralba NSW

Hope they are happy with a 4 star. Very friendly and I have found the cost of petrol is quite competitive. I have gone there above other ones, even with a discount from shopping, Teralba has been cheaper - not all the time but a lot of it. Also, by the time you drive to another station you may find you have already spent your savings from the discount.

This review is for GWS Giants, Rooty Hill NSW

verified email - 24 Sep 2012

They are the first NSW Aussie Rules team in the AFL competition. Sydney Swans are still regarded/referred to as South Melbourne, therefore GWS is a true NSW team. When it comes to membership, they offer country membership (Victorian or unable to get to the match membership). However, when it comes to competitions to say win a trip to a match or to the Grand Final, flights are only from Canberra or Sydney. Talking to membership sais, "we are based in Sydney". If they want country membership and support, then I am sure they can arrange flights from say Newcastle. Getting to the airport would be easier for many let alone the cost of parking. I do not, for example, want to arrive back in Sydney and have to catch a train back to where I live - I am concerned about safety at the time of my return with a young family, or have to pay the exhorbitant parking costs you get at Sydney airport (I have done that before - it is FAR TOO EXPENSIVE). GWS were not interested, I felt, in the mebership area to even want to support people outside of Sydney or Canberra.
Final comment: Is this another case of if you are not in Sydney (ie, you live north of the Hawsbury) you cannot exist in NSW.

Approximate cost: $50.00

This review is for My Cars Statewide, Bass Hill NSW

verified email - 12 Jan 2012

The company advertisers their cars thorugh multiple sources. I bid (made an offer) on eBay. I was to be contacted within 24 hours. No reply within the first 24. I contacted via eBay multiple times. The following 24 hours the car was still available and I contacted them again - waiting for them, I hoped, to accept the offer. I checked in a short while later and the item has ended. Still no reply from them. eBay had been contacted and they will be cotnacting this seller. Based on there poor customer service I cannot recommend dealing with them for service. As fore the rest of my ratings I cannot give more than 1 star as the business was unable to continue.

Approximate cost: $6499

This review is for Teralba Country Kitchen, Teralba NSW

2nd review. Still going strong. Tasty. Would like to see iodised salt introduced as an option. Although you can add this at home, if you are on the move it is not really an a viable option. Other than this issue there is nothing wrong with the place. Still HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
Don't forget they used real potato for their scallops. I have tried the bought stuff but they have nothing on this shops REAL POTATO.

This review is for Hog's Breath Cafe, Newcastle NSW

verified email - 11 Mar 2011

This Hog's Breath used to be at Hamilton.
1st visit. The corn was off - they replaced that.
2nd visit. The meat was asked to be well-done. Blood RAN OUT OF IT. They agreed it was not cooked properly and cooked it a little more - well actually they OVERCOOKED it this time. It came back VERY dry. They also gave extra chips this time.
3rd visit. This time it was the store located in Newcastle. The meat was chewy - although cooked it was chewy and dry - this comment was from the person I was with. After examining the meat I would agree.
Overall, with the chicken meals and other people's meals I have been with I guess you could say they are okay - but I do not intend to go back.
If you want a good Hog's Breath - try Wagga Wagga.

Approximate cost: $60

This review is for Diamond Royale Jewellers, Glendale NSW

Can't give a high rating when for example, they take your name and number to ring you back about a product. Still waiting something like 6 months later. I have been back and felt completely brushed off. There was still no interest to check my name and number and get the product/information. I believe the product could cost around $50. But with a what I felt was a total disregard for a customer the cost is higher as I will not go back - either will a bunch of other people who know what happened.

Always friendly and helpful. Occasionally run out of some choices close to closing time. Even so, they make you feel like a wanted customer.

This review is for Woodrising Guardian Chemist, Woodrising NSW

verified email - 16 Aug 2009

Very helpful and friendly staff. If you have a question and need assistance they will help and advise if you want. They will also order in a product you need but may be out of stock (or get in a particular size they may not carry but you want). They also have a delivery service which is brilliant if you are stuck at home and could not get out for that necessary script/medication.

This review is for Steve King, Boolaroo NSW

Always friendly to customers and very (very) helpful. Will get your car going, repaired or rego checked. If something needs time he will find out what is wrong. Will notify you of costing. Not sure what to write, oh yes, very honest.

This review is for Subway, Glendale NSW

Utterly diasppointed. Wanted a particualr meal. The staff HAD TO finish their conversation before asking what I wanted (more than one occasion). Did not have bread sometimes (3 to 4 hours before closing time). Did not have other food (again an hour or so before closing). Once I was offered to have some microwaved to warm it up. Porr attitude by staff. Unfriendly reception. Been there a few times but NEVER again.
