Handy Consumer Services

Sometimes I find a Service or Seller whose products or services would benefit people on this website so I've decided to add a section to this page to accomodate for those services. I don't profit by displaying these organisations - so you can be sure that I just find them handy for this website - purely on their own merit.

 

  • Cards by Post - Cards by Post are an Australian-based company, who provide an online card-mailing service. This is particularly good for Aussie expats who like to send "real" cards to Australian family and friends, but never seem to get them mailed in time - or perhaps not at all. Choose your card, write a verse, and Cards by Post will do the rest. A great service.
  • Global Gophers - Shopping abroad has never been so easy. Buy Australian, British, French, Canadian and American items using the personal shopper Gopher request service. Browse the expat article database.
  • Pincity.com - This is a great telephone company for those who don't mind using special numbers. Pincity offers both U.S. long distance, plus International calling. U.S. long distance is 2.9 cents a minute, and calls to Australia cost 4.9 cents a minute.
  • Health Care International - For those expats living and working abroad, accessing the right kind of international health insurance cover can turn out to be a nightmare, with the cost of medical treatment often expensive and difficult to arrange particularly in an emergency. Healthcare International is a specialist provider of global private health and related personal insurances, designed to provide not just the basic health cover, but also a wide range of benefits providing peace of mind for you, your family or your personnel.
  • Insurance to Go - For many of us, health insurance is a big deal for a while, when first moving to America. Often people go for many months not being covered by any insurance due to immigration and work reasons. I found this website, and though what a great resource this could be for many people new to the U.S.A. They specialize in providing insurance for Travelers, Expatriates, Business & Groups and Foreign Visitors
