  1. It is articles like this that cause economic malaise! By making people worry, people stop spending, and managers stop handing out pay rises.
  2. Yes looking into them all Virgin seems to give you the most for your money.
  3. Thanks! Actually looking over past months I have not always been that high. So maybe 10Gb should be ok
  4. I don't stream videos! I receive a lot of large emails for work, and that is the only thing I can think. I use spotify- but download a lot of the playlists when at home. hmmm. I guess this is the trouble with unlimited. I just use it with no idea where it is all going too.
  5. So I have looked and looked and known in Australia seems to offer unlimited data on a mobile contract! I have been on 3 in the Uk and have got so used to "all I can eat" Was hoping there was something similar in Oz. I have just had a look at my data usage for this month and it is 43GB! ouch. Anyone know any good data heavy plans in OZ? Thanks
  6. doesn't look like a credit card to me? Do you mean Qantas?
  7. In the UK I would totally recommend BA AMEX. if you are good at paying back your balance every month. we pay about £200 in annual fees, we are about to fly to Sydney paying taxes only. (thats two people for about £500 return) We have also been upgraded to Business because of our status in the past. If you can get it and are good at paying it back and travel a lot it can be worth it.
  8. Totally understand your frustration, I am a contract worker, and are not taking contracts longer than 6 months, as we want to go as soon as we can. I have had to turn down great paying jobs! Also wanting to put the house on the market and arrange the cats to move.. all very hard without knowing a date. Judging by the date you applied and everyones timescales I am sure it will be any day now for you AusCitizen
  9. Thanks Pom Queen that is a good find! I like it although a little small. That website even has the vesper ones! But they are more expensive in OZ. As can be expected. I did find a few other good ones. Harvey Norman http://www.harveynorman.com.au/sports-camping-pets/cats/petpals-penthouse-natural-cat-scratcher-and-lounger.html http://www.harveynorman.com.au/sports-camping-pets/cats/petpals-ace-cat-scratcher-and-lounger.html and http://www.mypetwarehouse.com.au/pawise-platform-twin-seagrass-house-and-play-toy-p-22922 but the prices are nearly twice as expensive!
  10. good point! Thank you I never thought about that. I am sure the vesper ones are just like an other piece of furniture, but maybe the woven baskets could cause an issue?
  11. Yes I am asking about cat trees! lol My cats love theirs and are just trying to work out if it I should be shipping them to OZ? I like nice looking cat trees. No Faux fur! We love Karlie, Vesper & Pet pals cat trees, but none of these brands are available in Australia. I have searched online for cat trees Australia and all I get is Faux fur ones. Has anyone in Australia found a more stylish option? Thanks
  12. Answered my own question. Yes you can get a special diet, but needs to be verified by a vet. Otherwise they just get dry food http://www.agriculture.gov.au/cats-dogs/quarantine-facilities-and-fees/post-entry-quarantine-facilities#feeding
  13. Hello I have a question about the food in Australian quarantine. One of my cats gets bad allergic dermatitis, She has a allergy to a lot of the fillers (Wheat, starch, rice) that mainstream supermarket cat food brands put in the food. I only feed my cats food brands that are at least 95% meat. Did you know Whiskers and Felix here in the Uk are 4% meat! Has anyone else taken their pets into quarantine with diet or medication requirements?
  14. Motley & Miah are Mum and daughter. They are looking forward to their new life in Brisbane, but are worried about flying.
  15. Thanks wish we had of found this forum before we applied. We are planning on going about September, if all goes well. How long do you have to get to Australia once it is granted? I found the checklist https://www.border.gov.au/Trav/Visa-1/309-/Partner-(Provisional)-visa-(subclass-309)-and-Partner-(Migrant)-visa-(subclass-100)-document-checklist Thank you And Congratulations Amy21!
  16. Which we have! I have moments of feeling nervous, like the immi system is not working or I have forgotten stuff, (which I have..) So desperate to move, But are guessing it will be September by the time we get going.
  17. When do you get assigned a CO normally? We applied three months ago and have not hear a thing?
  18. Relationship statement? I don't think we have done that? I did not see that on our immi account? Do you need to do that if you are married?
  19. I suppose your mind is made up, but I would echo what others have said: In my opinion the further north you go, the more redneck people become. Darwin is pretty small and very hot. Maybe you should be looking to Melbourne or Brisbane for a better quality of life?. What career where you in the UK?
  20. I stopped paying into mine, 6 months ago and yes it is depleting due to fees.. Doubt anything will be left by the time I hit 55
  21. I just wanted one pension I could pay into regularly, but clearly I can't.
