I used to pay A$35 per week to this slightly dodgy Aussie bloke, called Terry who said he owned the place. There were at least 30 people living there, my room had six. Loved my time in Sydney.

Please let me know if you have any specific questions. Also, look over other comments on this post. Others have had different approaches than I did. My main piece of advice would be to be persistent.

The phone recently stopped working and now I would like to make a warrenty claim. Unfortunately, I cannot register a claim with ebay since ebay only allows to register complaints within a certain time period. I contacted 7272wil and he asked me to sent the phone to a post box in Sydney. According to Australia Post, the package has been waiting for pickup for 14 days now. 7272wil claims his staff is on annual leave. Any advice on how I should proceed? Hi Darren,

It will require persistence. Best of luck and please let me know if you need some help or have any questions. I would have kept your phone until you received a response. It will require persistence.

Packaging should be the same as what is available in a retail store, unless the item was packaged by the manufacturer in non-retail packaging, such as an unprinted box or plastic bag. See the seller's listing for full details." So, maybe it's just a used phone? I don't know. I queried it and they said that they have to open it to change it to English.. but that leaves me with no proof that it is a new phone. Just the fact that it has issues (several problems) makes me doubt. They actually haven't been too bad at communicating, but it is always brief (feels insufficient), as tho they are loathe to answer all my questions, or address the core issues I raised. Anyway, we'll see what happens. I keep insisting on new replacement or refund. Clearly, it's not all above board tho, wouldn't u say?
