The accommodation vouchers are dodgy. Alot of companies use them as extra incentive for purchases. The places are usually 3 star crappy little country comfort type places and the requirement that you eat breakfast and dinner is just to get these places some extra business.

The actual phone part to that post. Well is the Optus plan really that good and I’d say it will lock you in for the usual 24 months.

Nothing special and certainly no authentic competition prize.

Hi…

I hit the random link here on LJ when I was updating my LJ and your journal popped up… you sound like a really cool person! I know I probably sound like a geek or something for posting a comment! πŸ™‚ I think that’s cool that you live in Australia… when I was younger I always wanted to move there… I don’t know why… maybe because one of my favorite animals are koalas… LOL Well, that’s about all I could think of… I hope you’re having a great day/evening/night. BTW, I looked at your website… very cool and your poetry is awesome! Have you heard of http://www.writing.com? You can post your writing on there and people can read it and give you points and stuff… it’s a great site. My personal site is http://the_merry_prankster.tripod.com/prankstersrandomthoughts and you can check that out (and my LJ too) if you want to. I’m not experienced enough to do real HTML (I’m kind of teaching myself with the “… For Dummies” books at the library… LOL) but I try. πŸ™‚ Well, I’ll end here… I’ve probably bored you with such a long post! LOL πŸ™‚

Peace & Happiness,

Fiona Tierney

Re: Hi…

Oh maaan, I wouldn’t dare post my writings online to be rated πŸ˜› I’m off to check out your website now.. love the icon for your LJ username though!

Re: Hi…

Thanks! My icon symbolizes the nickname my fiance gave me: Baby Bunny πŸ™‚ Thank you for checking out my website…it’s not as cool as yours, but I’m still learning HTML and stuff… πŸ™‚ My fiance and I have a poetry website that I forgot to mention to you… there’s no point system and we encourage all writers and budding poets! The URL is http://ourpoetryplanet.tripod.com/home and you can e-mail us at [email protected] to join or a free temporary username and password to look around and check it out… most of my current poetry is there! πŸ™‚ I also do deviant art (some fellow art deviants here on LJ think that all my art is filter abuse because I use Adobe PhotoShop, but it’s all abstract art for free interpretation) and I send you the link for that if you want to check that out… I have to look it up… LOL I’m so scatterbrained! πŸ™‚

The main sentence here is:

It comes connected on our most popular plan on the Optus Network which is $29 per month

Rip off

there’s always some catch to these. i was walking along orchard road once with my buddy and some guy came up to us asking us to do a survey and than a lucky dip. and we just happened to get the top prize of 7 nights stay in any of the hotels mentioned (some even in exotic places like fiji). the guy said we had to go back with him to the office to fill up some details. i was naturally excited but my friend glenn rejected the ‘prize’ and later told me that as good as it sounds, there’s some catch to it definitely. its just some kind of marketing ploy and it the end you’ll end up having to pay quite a bit. not worth it.

happened again to me when i was in bali with paul. we just happened to get the top prize of some free hotel stay again. remembering my last incident, i declined the offer.

so yeah, i think this is definitely some marketing ploy. else how can i be so lucky as to get the so called top prize twice? i haven never been the lucky sort of person who wins during lucky draws and such. no harm calling to ask about it but the offer really does sound too good to be true.

Yeah, stupid marketing people! Get your hopes up and then you feel like crap when you realise you’ve been roped into some stupid scheme :T How come I can’t honestly win something with NO strings attached?!
