Hi guys,
I'm an Australian debating whether to sign up for the global work & travel co for around 2k to get Canada visa help (I'm running out of time to get it) and sort work out for me prior to arriving. I noticed Sta travel have a similar thing for cheaper. Does anyone have any experience or advice for this?

There are a few very bad reports .. here's one on CBC from 2014 http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/global-work-travel-customers-describe-working-holiday-nightmares-1.2829993 & many good reviews on-line.

This is more recent & may be of interest https://www.qld.gov.au/law/laws-regulated-industries-and-accountability/queensland-laws-and-regulations/fair-trading-services-programs-and-resources/fair-trading-latest-news/media-statements/warning-for-customers-of-getaway-escapes-and-ausflights/

It says in part 'Global Work and Travel has been under investigation by the OFT since late 2014. The investigation will continue.'

It might be an idea to find out what that investigation is about & why it is taking so long to resolve.
