I would not recommend signing up. I signed up and was given about 10 surveys. Each survey worth between $1.50-$2.50 each. One by one I go through each survey spending 5-15mins on each survey but always get you are not eligible for this survey. Seems it’s just information gathering. I tried again today and same situation, I’m not eligible. I unsubscribed from the email and it says my account will be closed but doesn’t mention what happened to my already completed data (profile)

This review is for South Morang Fish And Chips, South Morang VIC

The food is really nice here. They are not as quick as other fish and chip shops. They have an area where you can sit in, but we always get take away. I usually get a burger and my OH he gets battered fish. The fried fish is big and the batter is perfect (not too greasy etc) They offer regular or chicken salt which is good. The chips are good, a minimum chips is more than enough for 2 people.

The Clothes are nice, but some are low quality - e.g. polyster pants and they still charge $100 for them. I went in during a sale and found some really nice shirts. I tried on the blue, but really wanted a purple. The sales assistant was hesitant to help. She was on the phone and when I interrupted her for some service she quickly brushed me off by saying "that was the only sizes we have", she seemed frustrated when I asked her to check other stores. I was happy to travel to 3 different stores. She scanned the shirt, glanced down at the screen and said, "No, none available". I then asked about another colour and she said "I just checked, there is none". She then picked up the phone and continued chatting. I left the store and didn't purchase anything. It was a shame, because the shirts were very nice and only when the discount was applied were decent value.

I went to Ribs and Burgers in Craigieburn.

We loved the burgers. i bought the Aussie burger and it was delicious. My partner got the feather steak and although nice, was very small serving for the price. He had a bite of my burger and ended up buying one. We have been back a few times. The new loyalty program is good too. Average price per meal: $20

This review is for The Sporting Globe, Moonee Ponds VIC

The Sporting Globe - went for the first over the weekend in a group of 10. I had a chicken burger with chips. The burger was nice, but the chips were perfectly cooked. Crunchy on the outside but smooth and soft on the inside. The beer battered coating was really nice. We got a plate of Nachos to share and honestly I wouldn't get them again. The put the sour cream and guacamole in the centre of the plate and there was not enough for all the corn chips and the corn chips lacked cheese. We ordered a lot of food and because of that I just wanted water as a drink and was surprised when they said 'you pour that yourself'. I completely understand if you are at the bar area and watching the sports on the TV, but we were sitting outside and ordered a lot of food and others bought drinks. I just think, in that situation we should get water to our table. The food was average price (not cheap, not expensive), but they do have specials on certain days which would increase the value. I didn't get the steak but saw someone on my table did and it looked really good.

I always get sent emails with surveys and the the best thing is if you are screened out of the survey, you still get 20 points. Some of they surveys have been very interesting too. You don't get quick surveys very often - maybe once a year. I like how every Sunday I can win awards - it's like a lucky draw. Most the time I only win 2-5 points, but I have one 20 a couple of times and 100points once. You can no longer transfer points anymore, however you can get egift cards. I used one today for the first time. At first when I logged in today to claim a gift card, I was a bit nervous it wouldn't work. I picked a big chain gift card for a supermarket, bc I always go. Anyways, went today and it worked. No printing, just need 3G on your phone. I was happy.

This review is for RewardsCentral, St Leonards NSW

I have been using rewards central for about 2 years. I attempt all the surveys they send and I did have it linked to the my opinions website too. It took me about 12 months of using this website to earn $100. It takes about 6 weeks to get the money paid into your regular bank account. Now, they have made changes. Firstly, I noticed when using the ebank that they are now restricting how much interest you earn based on how much points you earn. This is a bit unfair as sometimes, you just don't earn points, because you are constantly screened out of surveys etc. Also web clicks are not common, neither are quick surveys. I usually only get one once a month. The surveys can sometimes be annoying, as they usually don't give points when screened out. However, you can be filling out the survey for 10 minutes and then BAM your screened out and get 'competition' entries. Now, they also changed their connection with 'My Opinions' as I could transfer points to reward central and then increase my total points. Now, they have eliminated that feature. I don't have the paid version.

This review is for Red Ribbon Noodle & Rice, Epping VIC

verified email - 30 Mar 2015

I've been twice so far. The first time, I ordered the noodles and wasn't impressed. We thought we'd try the main dishes and this time had some 'fried chicken' dish with a nice rich red sauce and a large friend rice. They ask you what meat you want in your rice which is a nice change. The food is big serving sizes, but can be pricey. For instance we paid $27 for a large fried rice, chicken dish and 3 steamed dim sims. The homemade steamed dim sims, are very nice. I think it's a little pricey for a local take away place with no drinks etc. The service is very good though and they are quick, polite and the venue is clean. I would recommend giving this place a go and deciding for yourself.

This review is for Hyakumi Japanese Restaurant, Niddrie VIC

I went with 3 other people we ordered some entrees to share. I liked the pork dumplings, the seafood and vegetable pancake was a bit dense and the chicken skewers were very soft. For mains my friends had the sushi boat which they enjoyed. I ordered a beef with noodles. The beef was soft and nice but the dish itself was nothing special. I felt like I could have cooked the meal myself at home. We ordered desserts and they brought the dessert out and left all our plates from our mains on the table. The waitress also never gave us a drink menu or offer tea or coffee with dessert. I had the banana fritter with ice cream it was nice but needed a bit more maple syrup as it wasn't sweet enough for a dessert as it was.

The thing that stands out about WOMO is your ability to add businesses to the site. I've recently moved to a new estate and have been trying the local restaurants and shops. Its been great being able to add the new local shop that opened up and being able to share my experience with people. I always like to look at reviews before going somewhere.
