Ozforex
Anyone get a gift from them this year? They sent me an iPod nano last year and this year - NADA. They usually send out great prezzies at xmas for all the business they receive from you but just wondering if they did it this year or not as I didn't get anything? Maybe I was a bad girl??
They've made a fortune out of my financial situation the last 2 years.Hoping I haven't missed out on a well earned freebie!

Re: Ozforex
Think just regular custom, Funky Monkey.
I emailed them lastnight to say I'd like the gift as last year I also had to ask for it as they'd forgotten again. So, this morning I got a cheeky email back from some woman saying "as I thought, Ozforex don't give out gifts" WHAT???
So, the iPod shuffle ( not Nano ) I got last year from them just appeared did it, and no-one knows anything about it????
Customer Service - you gotta love it, eh??

Re: Ozforex
i didn't get a gift either and i changed a fair bit back to UK pounds when we visited in October
I use them every year to move funds from Uk to Aus.... had a gift for last 2 years from them
I wonder if it was because i changed dollar to sterling this time

Re: Ozforex
Nope! I got a call from them this morning in response to my email enquiry about my prezzy.
The woman said that because they have 50,000 private clients they don't send a gift out to all of them - only some....( hmmm, so only SOME get the free goodies - I see! )
So, I said well how come my mates have had stuff from you each year and yet you seem to keep forgetting mine! She answered this by repeating the same line again. ( something that bugs the sh*t out of me and seems to be the new trend these days! ) So, I just repeated back to her about people I know here who've received gifts each year from them!!
Nothing ventured and certainly nothing gained from enquiring in this case!
Oh well - what can you do!? Wouldn't normally bother, only their gifts are usually REALLY good!

Re: Ozforex
The woman didn't say you have to change a certain ammount - it's just if your a client with them. We have been with them for about 2 years now.
Like I say she said they only send out prezzies to SOME of the 50,000 clients, not all. ( even tho it seems some folk seem to get them every year and some don't. ) HMPH!

Re: Ozforex
Has it crossed anyone's mind that this may not be a corporate initiative?

Re: Ozforex
Ummm......It may be a personal initiative rather than a corporate one - mgilmour (Matt) who posts on BE may be doing it as a personal thing, which would explain why the office don't know about it? (and I am guessing, I don't know the answer for certain!)
