Buckets and Bouquets

Bouquets to Max Fry Smash Repairs for exceptional-quality service. I had a small dent and scratch repaired at no cost because it took only “five minutes or so”, even though I was more than willing to pay. The business has also done fantastic work for me on previous occasions.
Emma, Belmont
Bouquets to Drysdale Library staff. The library is a warm home away from home, with activities for all ages, newspapers, computers, children’s story-times and more. The staff are friendly, cheerful and never too busy to help.
Heaps Of Praise, Indented Head
Buckets to a tradesman who ripped off my elderly parents. Your shonky job only becomes more apparent with time. You give your trade a bad name.
You’ll Get Yours, Torquay
Bouquets to Saint Jude for answering my prayers and solving my worries.
Grateful To You, Ocean Grove
Bouquets to the owners and staff at Cartridge World for outstanding service when I visited Geelong. After discussing my problem with my printer, I was asked to bring it in so the staff could check it before selling me ink. They couldn’t have been more helpful.
Happy Visitor, Charlton
Buckets to hoons on Wilson’s and Ormond Roads. The lack of concern for other road users is a real worry. Young bucks in fast cars are asking for trouble. Slow down, back off and think of safety.
Safe Driver, Whittington
Bouquets to the staff at Torquay’s Telstra shop for exceptional service. They are always pleasant and go to no end of trouble to solve any problems.
Sherril, Torquay
Buckets to takeaway staff for consistently forgetting all items in orders placed at drive-through facilities. I’m sick of arriving home to find the mistakes, leaving me disappointed and out of pocket. You force me to stay in line to check my order, which frustrates waiting customers behind me.
Won’t Take It Anymore, Grovedale
Bouquets to Duffs Jewellers, Westfield Geelong. The friendly staff happily exchanged a charm I bought earlier in the year as a gift but which cracked and broke. Now that’s what I call A1 customer service.
Amanda, Highton
