Hiya, we used http://www.acacia-au.com/, we initally contacted them in October 06 and have already been allocated a CO who has requested medicals etc, fingers crossed we should get our visa soon!
They have been really good, they're also handling my parents and brother's applications. They gave us a fixed price at the beginning and it was a lot cheaper than the English agents we contacted. Even though they are based in Oz they reply to emails by the next morning and are happy to chat on the phone.
Good luck with your application.

Welcome to the site. We've got our medicals tomorrow, then just the big wait for our visa. We have used Ian Harrop and cannot fault him. Many a times I have rung him with really trivial things.
We also have applied for a 136 permanent visa-hubby self employed carpenter.
Hope this helps

Hi
We used Go Matilda for our 139 visa to Melbourne - really handy as they have offices in Melbourne and Southampton (and Perth I think, not sure). Started whole visa procedure (including skills assessment with Vetassess) in Feb 2006 and visa was granted on Feb 22nd 2007 (we didn't frontload).We always got prompt replies and straight to the point - www.gomatilda.com.

Not pay as you go.
