FB marketplace and gumtree. So many scammers trying to buy things.
Whatever happened to paying cash for this stuff? every c..nt asking for my payID or paypal.

My favourite recently selling a full set of golf clubs with bag:
"Where are you located?"
"I am in xxxx (south of Adelaide)"
"that is lucky for me, I am in Penrith. Can you please speak with Australiapost to have it sent to me"

Easy mistake, who decided that inflammable and flammable are not opposites.

Faarken English.

Virgin Australia, notifying me of a cancelled flight mere hours before it was scheduled to take off.
No explanation given, outside of the ambiguous phrase "for operational reasons".
Re-scheduling me on a return flight via another city on the next day, leaving me stranded with no accomodation.
Their helpline requiring me to spend 5 minutes punching numbers before I get to a human, who speaks with a semi-comprehensible accent and only knows how to book flights, not handle issues.
There being no listed way to directly contact a local virgin office, not even at the airport.

Things that don't give me the shits:
My adelaide-based travel team who had me rebooked on a Qantas flight in quick time.

Virgin: you get what you pay for. Serves me right for agreeing to fly with them.
Clowns OUT. Smears OUT. RESIST THE OCCUPATION.

They're all shite
Do not accept a flight credit
Make sure you demand your money back within 14 days or you will issue proceedings in the small claims court
