|
|
HI THERE,
I STARTED TO FOLLOW THIS FORUM SINCE I AM HAVING PROBLEMS TRYING TO GET MY REFUND FROM NEWJOBZ. I HAVE BEEN A MEMBER SINCE APRIL 2005 AND NEWJOBZ COULDN'T FIND ME WORK TILL MID JULY WHEN I TOLD THEM TO STOP SEARCH AND REFUND MY MONEY. THEY HAVE BEEN VERY SLOW IN RESPONDING TO MY Q'S, E-MAILS ETC AND THEN FINALLY TOLD ME THAT IT TAKES ABOUT A MONTH FOR THE MONEY TO BE REFUNDED. IT HAS ALREADY BEEN A MONTH AND THEY HAVEN'T UPDATED ME AT ALL OF WHATS HAPPENING. UPON E-MALING THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY CAN'T GIVE AN EXACT DATE BUT IT WILL BE DONE. I WOULD LIKE TO SAY THAT THEIR SERVICE IS EXTERMELY PATHETIC, HAD I KNOWN BEFORE I WOULD NEVER HAVE DEALTH WITH ME. I AM VERY WORRIED IF I AM GOING TO GET MY $NZ 3000 BACK.
ANY ONE ELSE HAD A SIMILAR EXP AS THIS?? |

Hi Asha,
I just recently submitted my POS to them but before hand after more than a month of just being associate member they had contacted me offering a job but we declined it because of it's salary and lower position for my husband who is an engineer here in Dubai.
They have not asked yet for the membership so we have not paid it yet.
May I know what is your line of career? Who your dealing with NewJobz?
Just take it easy sure you will get your money back.
Regards,
Jeneral |

asha,
I was a member of Newjobz way back but I had my membership withdrawn later and just took the EOI path. I was able to get back
my money which was around NZ$3000 but less the banking charges which was only about $30 or so.
I think it will just take some time but they will refund you the money.
regards,

Asha:
You entered the member core on April 2005 and NewJobz wasn't able to find you a job. How many days specified in your contract? What is your work experience and date availability declared to NewJobz? I am asking you this because I want to relate the same scenario that happened to my friend who sucessfully entered NZ thru NewJobz and it goes like this:
He entered the member core last Nov. 2004 and was given 120 days contract for the job search. Unfortunately no job offer during those months but NewJobz asked him if he wants to continue for another 120 days and in the month of March 2005 he was interviewed by a propective employer and agreed with all the benefits offered. They processed the medical and police clearance in Riyadh thru Saudi Police and Phil. Embassy and finally he is in Christchurch since July 17. A week prior to their departure he was in perfect contact with NewJobz taking all necessary actions prior to their arrival in Ch airport because being part of NewJobz services they will be fethced by their staff and bring them to a hotel for temporary settlement.
Kongting tyaga lang kasi not all the 12 months ay hiring season according to my source in NZ. Kaya weder-weder lang yan sana you must have negotiated for another contract. But for sure your money will be refunded I believed on the promises of NewJobz.
Good luck to your refund request. |

Hey all,
thanks for the replies. i am a product development officer in the IT/Telecom field for 3yrs with a BSc in Computing and Information systems. I was dealing with Luan but then they changed the manager to Andrea. Sorry I had the dates wrong, I became a core member in Feb 2005 and NZJOBZ worked to find a job for me for 120days.Having had no success they enforced that I should extend the contract and we did that till mid July when I asked them for a refund. Somehow it seemed that whenever I contacted them, I was not abke to get a feedback quick enough and then half the time the employment managers were out/sick and my case was not being attended to.They kept enforcing that I should extend but I had made up my mind so they told me that there processing for refund only begins once in a month, only on the 20th. They started my refund processing on the 20th of Aug 2005 and said that they cannot give an exact date as to when will the money be refunded. Not having heard from them I called them after 2 weeks of processing time and talked to Debbie who wasn't nice at all, she went on about the 1000s of clients they have and they cannot update everyone with the progress etc ctec. Anyway since it has been about 5 weeks of waiting, my sister who is in Christchurch gave Luan a call yesterday and she was supposed to talk to the person who is in the accounts dept., and then give us a reply today.
Most of the time they make it a point to be really friendly and try to refrain from the matter in q??....they have told us that the refund will happen but don't know when!!. It is a simple transfer into a nz bank a/c. |

hi len,
how long did it take for you to get the refund?(days, weeks or months). Good to know they do refund in the end. I have taken up the EOI path and I was selected on sept 14th 2005, hope all goes well in the next months.
cheers

asha,
It took them more than a month din, pero
I had no hassle dealing with them. I understand
naman kc company policy nila na every 20th of the month ang procesing ng refund and from that magbibilang ka pa ng at least one month. Pero syempre
I understand your situation, that was what I felt too when almost a month wala pang refund. I was only relieved when I got the money. I even wrote them a thank you note after that coz I found them nice, after all.
Don't worry baka these few days you'll get your money back. I wish you good luck sa EOI mo, sana swertehin tayo lahat.
regards,

|

Hi Asha
Yes I am also having major problems with Newjobz attempting to get my refund.
I have been with Newjobz as a member for nearly a year looking for work as an IT administrator in which time communication with managers have been very poor unless pushed.
So in August I requested a refund as per the contract, I was told I’d missed the 20th of the month deadline and would have to wait till the following month which I did only to be told there is a delay in the credit dept.
I have emailed them regularly weekly for 3 months now, they won't give a date.
I can only assume they are in financial difficulties and have cash flow problems.
I'd be interested to know if anyone else is having similar problems. |

I was client of newjobZ -not fair company, as I can inform.
this company use psychology manipulations and smart contract conditions to move client to full unreliable conditions -deceive them by some smart steps:
Initially this company supplies very good advertising attracting client of money back guarantee condition - that must characterize company as supplying reliable - and not bad service without
bad practices .
So I was thinking when first seen their proposal in advertising.
After pay for "association" you immediately receive anketa
"for real work" in which at lowest string
you can gather if you are lawer that signing it you reject "money back".
So any advertising has real sense,
and once you follow just human logic of declared condition - you loose that condition that you was attracted by,
due to either can not detect it,
or by next smart steps:
from initial contact you asked many times how keen you are to move to new Zeeland ?
And you answer many times freely that you keen to do it -
(once you do it and this not takes money).
But thing some smarter:
if you disagree with some controversial conditions of loose money back immediately after work begin due to this is not logic to advertise proposal,
you receive messages that you will be considered as not keen, and with low priorities - means receive nothing.
Thus - either you follow human logics or follow letters of contract you tried to be manipulated and loose
worth condition.
that first time shows company as not fair.
secondly reading contract you see hat you must pay 2500$ + 2500$ (USD),
and this money can be made not paid- by
opinion of every they worker that hi was listen some agreement on some job condition,
that can be any.
no guarantee of success of this work is supplied - take into attention - ALL RISKS MOVED ON YOU.
due to you are not experienced - it is high risk,
and their professionalism - is not understood is need for what.
Also any condition "by their opinion" (by contract) follows to fact that you loosed money.
If their declarations was reflecting this practice openly - I would doubt that is is not based,
but declaring full reliability of money return and that appearing smart inverse conditions
on every step - I see that this company is manipulative and deceiving.
that means
they can deceive on every else step,
once this is common strategy.
But this is all under contract,
so you can go to court with that.
have a lawyer for battles!
so I was involved into this, and after first disagree to pay all, received reject of return money and that is all.

I registered at Newjobz sometime in November 2006. They sent me a CD and a letter acknowledging my membersship as an associate. But after receiving this, i got no response anymore. After a few months, they have changed the name of the company. I sent email messages to Mr. Keith Lightfoot regarding the status of my membership since they have changed the company's name, but i got no reply. I have trusted Newjobz but i guess, they dont deliver the way they said they will. I didnt even get a letter saying "sorry, we found no job for you here in NZ. Better luck next time." It's now 2008, and still, i have not heard anything from them.

| Sad to know that you were also a victim of NewJobz. Yes the company was closed sometime in 2006 (guess). Huwag ka na lang umasa na may magandang process pang idudulot ng NewJobz...nalahu na |

i was able to refund my money from newjobz but after emailing them that i will take a legal action (since my brother is a PR of NZ)...
because it was days overdue from a month when they've promised to refund the fees.
i've just learned from this forum that they are closed already... well... they should be kasi wala naman talaga silang naihahanap nang work. kaya lang kawawa naman yung mga di makapagrefund  |
