I am so grateful to have found you. This problem has been going on for months and as of yesterday It’s now fixed. I can’t thank you enough because everything I did failed to work. I continually got overseas operators, with a huge understanding problem and no success at all. When you connected me to the right people, the problem was eventually fixed even though this still was not an easy fix. Optus have given me credits for all the problems I have had as compensation for my troubles & now everything looks rosy. Again thanks heaps for your help in resolving this issue.

We had been battling a major pest control company for three months, with a long list of complaints, to no avail. They hadn't responded to our correspondence, not once, but kept hounding us for payments and threatened us with debt collectors. Contact Handle My Complaint and the problem was resolved, the same day! The company waived the $900 they were pursuing, and gave us a free home termite inspection. Thank you Jo and Handle My Complaint.

Removing road blocks to customer care
Saul Frank knows when he’s being given the run-around with customer care. And he would never do the same to his customers.
“I’ve been in business a long time and it’s just not the way you treat people,” he says.

Taking the stress out of complaints
Romantha Barron is in tears as she shares how much Handle My Complaint’s help meant to her.
The Perth disability carer was facing the prospect of forking out thousands to fix a collapsing ceiling in her home and garage. This is after RAC insurance rejected her claim for storm damage.

The ripple effect of poor customer service
Like most of us who have renovated a kitchen, the Wilsons couldn’t wait to enjoy it.
So imagine their dismay when, after using their stove for the first time, the South Australian couple noticed a distortion on their brand-new splashback.

Fifty years of loyalty — and nothing to show for it
Yvonne Arnall didn’t expect any special treatment. Like most of us, she simply expected to be treated with respect and have her issue resolved in a timely manner.
Instead, what the Melbourne grandmother got was an abject failure in customer service that dragged on for almost six months. A saga that involved her driving hundreds of kilometres on multiple occasions for appointments that never eventuated. And when her initial request was finally resolved — on the eighth appointment — it came with an added insult: a pool of urine.
