AUTOMOBILE DIRECT WHOLESALE PTY LTD

Commissioner Stowe and his investigation team has closed down and fined this retailer in Case FTMIN15/3410 of the above car company. This comes after Brooke Nash amongst countless others, summonsed Automobile Direct Wholesale at Ingleburne NSW to the Consumer Tribunal NCAT up to 3 times a month, all after Ross Hereford's experience with purchasing an unroadworthy vehicle 2015/NSWCATCD58. Many more unhappy consumers are expected to now lodge with their dissatisfaction with the investigator.

One consumer, lodged with NCAT claiming he had bought a problem vehicle with acceleration faults from AUTOMOBILE DIRECT WHOLESALE registered with ASIC. The car sold by Tanya Bakhos is reportedly lacking acceleration when it heats, the acceleration cuts out. The mechanics report (below) just days after purchase, lists numerous problems! After 12 emails, numerous calls and texts it appears the managers refused to engage in responding until being summonsed to NCAT Tribunal. The consumer said, "Tanya Bakhos had been given the ultimatum on March 9th 2015 to have her director respond by the end of the business day but neither did. Some of the cars were sold with a basic warranty from NRA where the Claims Manager Shane Jackson admitted there was no mechanical inspection for the warranty."

It is clearly case of BUYER BEWARE people are urged to get their own inspections. This operator was in the process of being struck off by ASIC at the date of lodgement by this particular buyer.

TRUDY RONA COMLEY & CRAIG CHEESEMAN

31st December 2003:Trudy Rona Comley made false allegations to Coffs Harbour Police about a man travelling north to a Byron Bay festival. The woman who made the false accusations allowed the man to be incarcerated all day as she lay on the beach before presenting at the Coffs Police Station, where he had been kept with out food and water till 4.30pm, after claiming he half exposed himself to her holding a nappy.

When Police questioned the man, with a nappy they had randomly picked up, the accused demanded DNA testing be performed on the piece of evidence. Police Officer Craig Anthony Cheeseman, was believed to have had a rookie attached to him, Constable Heinz. On the day, Officer Cheeseman chose to destroy the evidence rather than take the DNA test. Police Officer Jolene Booker and her associates, additionally restricted the victim from any beach for four months without a judge authorising. It should be noted the victim was an avid beach-goer and used beach launches for his boat. Therefore, applying unimaginable limitations upon the victims civil liberties for the Summer months!

The court case was adjourned in April 2004 because Trudy Rona Comley chose not to appear. At this time the judge lifted the inappropriate restrictions on the victim. The date was then reset to June 2004 where Ms Comley failed to appear again. The Officer, Craig Cheeeseman, called in sick! The judge then threw this matter out after hearing only minutes of the allegations!

The victim was quoted saying to Probationary Constable Heinz, in ear-shot of the Judge, as he left the court "You should be ashamed, the police work was incompetent and a waste of taxpayers money, possibly intentionally calculated, even corrupt destroying evidence! "

Trudy Comley was summonsed to the Australian Mediation Centre to apologise to the man and hear his victim impact statement, but has failed not once but twice!

The cost to society through medical and legal follow-up in now into tens of thousands of dollars.

It is believed that Craig Cheeseman, that headed the debarcle, is no longer in the Police force! Trudy Rona Comley is believed to be living in Algester, Queensland oblivious to the fact she destroyed a man's life! He has never been able to work full-time since. The victim will continue to pursue justice through the legal system for closure. The irony in this case is the victim doesn't know what Trudy Comley even looks like. When asked, the victim said "I presumed the accuser may have been suffering post-natal depression to concoct such an allegation!" Trudy Comley refused to comment when contacted.

Transdev - Sydney Light Rail

CEO of Transdev Sydney Light Rail, Brian Brennan, is in hot water after employing Irish Nationals over Australians during the PANDEMIC, namely the daughter of Special Works Executive in a NEPOTISM scandal.

This was recently sent to their to the NSW Ombudsman to take action and apply some fairness after the Irish National Management themselves used visas to work in Australia

"To The Ombudsman:
This is in regards to an unfair practice of favouring family members (nepotism), to the detriment of other employees, in the allocation of work to CSOs, especially casual CSOs, in Transdev Sydney Light Rail.

The reason for this submission, which is to halt this practice, is because the ongoing damage to the mental health of other CSOs is unacceptable. This, together with the financial hardship this practice is causing to Casual CSO's and their families, is taking a great toll.

We have flagged the issue (details below) with the Premier (Ref: A3589686) , the Prime Minister and their Principal Ministerial Manager, Terry McSweeney and the Public Service Commissioner, Katherina Lo, has recommended the matter go forward to the NSW Ombudsman.

In a Pandemic you would expect a greater "Duty of Care" and improved communication from an employer to its employees. Transdev has closed this down for this vital period. Even stopping the CHAT on their APP which was a way of keeping us all informed of developments and keeping us connected to each other and to Transdev. Without this we feel isolated and “pushed to one side”. Other full-time and part-time employees are approached on the Transdev site offices, but casual CSO's are not, so the lack of care and communication is poor. Emails have gone unanswered. Yet CSO's are expected to perform the role equally, whether full-time, part-time or casual when on duty, but the treatment and recognition of the role and commitment of casual CSOs, including long -time casuals, is non-existent.

Most staff joined Transdev thinking it was a transparent and forward thinking company. This appears not to be true.

Many of us have obtained visas as residents and obtained citizenship or are Nationals. We have done the right thing abiding by the government standards. Transdev Randwick was contacted, responding with “No Comment”
