1. Yung una po nyang quote sa akin at initial engagement ay outdated based on latest CSOL. Di pa ako marunong nun masyado kaya nalaman ko na lang nung natuto na ako about ANSZCO search etc. Dahil dito, nag process pa ako ng IELTS remark na hindi naman pala kailangan sa current state na inaaplayan ko (++ money and time, though yung money pala nabalik ng IELTS kasi tumaas yung score ko).
2. Parati po sya sa vacation at delayed nga po mga responses sometimes pero sa case ko naman ay acceptable pa naman yung delays na nangyari (so far, knock on wood).
3. Very detailed po ako magtanong at most of the time, di nasasagot lahat ng mga tanong ko. I guess nga po, overloaded ang office nila. Tawag ako ng tawag, pero email lang natatanggap ko 80% of the time.
4. Overall I think, di po sila ganun ka updated about changes on DIBP, ANSZCO and the latest news on AU Immigration. Ako pa po yung naginform sa kanila sa nagbukas na yung isang state dun sa ANSZCO ko.
Wala po akong experience sa ibang mga agencies, pero kung meron nagrerecommend na mas maganda, wag na lang po kayo kay James Hall based on my experiences above.
Kitakits po sa Oz.

1. Pano po yung process ng termination?
2. Nagbigay po ba kayo ng reasons etc?
3. Pano nya (James Hall) naendrose sa inyo yung lahat ng mga documents nyo na sila lang meron access (EOI, VETASSESS, etc)?
4. May binayaran po ba kayo or may nakuha kayo dun sa initial payment nyo?
Babasahin ko din yung contract pala na pinirmahan ko last year, pero will appreciate kung makasagot po kayo. Salamat ng marami.

My email was very straightforward. You can PM me so I can send you yung content ng email ko if you want.
Looking back, tama nga, dapat nagbasa-basa muna ako rito! And everything you said about them, common experience ng karamihan ng clients nila. Ansakit lang cos naka-2 payments na ako nun sa kanila (sayang ang 1.7k!). Hayyy charge to experience na lang.

Yung current tanong ko lang e - yung computer accounts / password na meron sila sa Vetassess at EOI, kung ano process nun.
1. Gagawa ba sila new account to endorse it all to you..
2. Meron ba dito sa pinoyau na nagkaroon ng problema or experience sa endorsement of documents / accounts after ng termination with agent?
Salamat ng marami po!
Kitakits!
