Review of New Zealand School of Food and Wine


Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Thorough Course - Covers Everything

Very throrough course, it was a long day of focusing.
It's essentially the tutor (who is very knowledgeable) reading through through the booklet so pre-reading isn't essential - but could be helpful.
Would be great to hear more te reo Māori used throughout.

The course booklet and additional online links and websites are a must have for success.

Thank you for your positive comments and yes, its always a challenge balancing the information along with the requirements. Our workbook remains a work-in-progress and we are updating it 2 or 3 times each year. With best wishes, Celia Hay

Review of Snap Rentals


Rated 2 out of 5 stars

Pressured by Staff to change Insurance Provider on collection

My first time using Snap, I thought a new company, good prices, give it a go.
2 Stars is for the Car being good and exactly as expected, clean, tidy and got us around as expected. Airport shuttle service easy to use and friendly staff.

Reason this isn't 5 stars:
When arriving to pick up vehicle, Snap staff member put pressure on to cancel current insurance with the booking company to direct with them "For $7 difference"
"If you stay with them we have to do $2K bond that can take 2-weeks to process back to you"
I was fine with that, but he was adamant cancelling and going with them was the right thing to do - "We have to stay competitive"

So, I allowed it to be cancelled.
Thereafter it turns out the $7 difference wasn't $7 cheaper - it was $18 more expensive than my original. "Oh yeah, so pretty much $7" he said.
After realising it felt dishonest on their part, I said I was happy with my original booking rather than going through additional process, by then "Too late now" so I had to purchase the insurance directly.
Now, I'm stuck going through a refund process with the original company that can take up to 1-month to process.

Would recommend for the cars, not for the unwanted pressure to change insurance providers.

Review of Wolf Escape Games


Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Epic night in, something different!

What an epic fun night in. We hooked it up to the TV & surround sound - Highly recommend!
It was creepy, challenging, and we didn't need to cheat! Took us a while, but we weren't in it for the time. Can't wait for the next one - please keep it going!

Good sturdy bag

Great product very happy with it so far. Sturdy and doesn't feel like it's going to break.

Heaps of room and holds as much as expected. Great buy
