Hey Everyone! Admin here, It's a bit overdue but I will be migrating our forum site to a new platform for better security. I will take out all the ads as well as these pesky spammers. Please expect a bit of issues here and there, and will slowly move the features to the new one. Don't worry we are very much alive and will be alive as long as I'm here :)

in Accommodations

Few tips for new migrants:
1. Massive level crossing removal projects and construction nowadays so trains are not available in some suburbs like southeast Frankston or Cranbourne line refer to this link https://www.metrotrains.com.au/planned-works/
2. When someone posted the room is "near bus stop" it doesn't mean its accessible. Bus interval usually 30-60 minutes. (I've been victim of this false info by fellow Filo)
3. Mostly of cheap rental are in west.."in this world you get what you pay for" (tarneit,footscray,sunshine,st.albans etc..)
