        Not all of them have views. I have been to a location in Sydney area (not going to mention which one) which was just a closed gray box with no view.

        • INFIDEL on 20/05/2015 - 12:52

          And that's why I said usually ;-)

          Looking at the map of the office location on Regus site usually gives a good indication. If it's in the middle of a flat CBD, you'll likely see other buildings.

          Staff at an office usually only know their own office, so asking which has the best view is a difficult & unusual question to answer for an office rental business.

          My usual is over looking the river, with views to the horizon. Of course other cities have better views, but it's bloody marvelous on a sunny day.

          @ezza:

          I have enjoyed Regus since I got 2 previous OzBargain deals. It's something I know about.

          The Regus staff are great, so I hope the influx of new faces doesn't cause the problems I think it may.

          So I may not be able to show my face in my usual office for a while after this deal. Well, I owe them an umbrella as well. I'll probably slink off to another office.

          WORK? For Regus?
          I am a traveller, sitting things out at the moment. I rarely work for anyone - measured in days per decade! Regus would have to pay me far too much.

          Why am I always asked if I work for what I know about ;-) (In the mountains in Tasmania, even rangers thought I worked there, organising a mountain rescue of a young woman I found who would have otherwise died from the cold, or helping in helicopter resupplies - I was just out for a walk for 12 days. I enjoy attempting to understand.)

          [As this deal is at a slow point, I thought I would indulge myself with this off-topic monologue.]

          (When comments are made, My phone tells me. Hence the response rate on this & my usual posts in Telstra deals. It won't last. This is filling in time until the next journey - something far more meaningful.)

          And wonderful tonester posted the deal. I am just the monkey dancing to tonester's organ grinding. Yes, that is a weird visual to leave you with :-)

    After an intermission, we now move into the second act.

    The program says this is where Regus is awoken by the hoards demanding entry. Will Regus let them in to pillage the coffee & cubicles, or will Regus throw the interlopers out & bolt the doors…

    The curtain rises…

    Thrilling!

      You mean in the last few hours? OzBargainers overseas may have an answer. Most Regus offices in eastern Australia had just opened when you posted.

      Have you tried logging in to your Regus account? See if you can use your membership number there.

      Doubt there will be an issue YET, based on last deal. I posted details days ago.

      It's when they contact you to ask you to provide your legitimate DinersClub membership number, that things heat up ;-)

      (That's Act 3 in my opera analogy. We're only at the start of Act 2, indicated by the ominous signs. Act 1 was usual happiness & light, green +'s were seen everywhere, when everything looked so wonderful and full of promise.)

      Enjoy it while it lasts. And it may last a long while.
      I have still got nearly 2 years membership remaining from the last deal.

  • FutureTech on 22/05/2015 - 15:38

    I'm at Regus darling park in Sydney at this exact moment and the lounge is occupied by 4 uni students talking about their assignment constantly and loudly, 5 including me but I'm the quiet one. Interesting.

    Pretty annoyed as i wanted to try out their service and see what it was like. Unsure if anyone else had the same experience i just got. I filled out the form while the offer was still valid and submitted it and was approved, i got the confirmation email which told me i would get the card "shortly". After around 10 days i contacted them via email to see if it was still coming just to be sure. They just got back to me and told me the offer is no longer valid, which is confusing as i filled this out the day this was posted on here (15th). I understand their Terms and conditions give them the right to do this and i'm not losing anything as i didn't pay anything but still kind of annoying. I would never have known too had i not contacted them.

    Wow this is incredibly deceptive - this is a classic bait and switch and should be reported as such. They even grabbed our personal details as a result of their deception.

        Offered a free gold membership in return for your contact details. Then revoke said membership and use the contact details you provided to offer to sell that membership to you instead. It's the very definition of bait.

          Wrong. DinersClub members were offered free Gold Membership with Regus. If you did not receive the offer directly from DinersClub/Regus, with the code, you were never entitled to it.

      • Unorthodox on 13/06/2015 - 00:27

        They offered free membership and we gave them details etc and proceeded

        Now they revoke it and offer it to us with a 10% discount.

        • eug on 13/06/2015 - 00:42

          They offered free membership

          How did they offer it to you? Did they give you the code to use, or did you find it on this site, which is unaffiliated with them?

        • INFIDEL on 13/06/2015 - 04:36
          +4

          Regus offered free membership only to valid DinersClub members. The code you entered was given out to DinersClub members.

          If I was a DinersClub member, I'd be pissed off that my membership offer to Regus was no longer valid because non-members had grabbed this offer for themselves.

          Regus can claim your application for this offer your application was fraudulently obtained.

          After all, as a DinersClub member you should have known about the deal & not clicked through from the OzBargain site.

    • INFIDEL on 13/06/2015 - 04:45
      +4

      "Wow this is incredibly deceptive - this is a classic bait and switch and should be reported as such."

      No, applying for a free Regus membership you were never entitled to claim is deceptive. (But we gave it a go!)

      "bait and switch", "sneaky" - wrong again. They are totally within their rights to refuse any membership at any time.

      The minor discount offered was to soften the blow. There was no need to offer it, or for you to take it up. But you are critical of Regus because of it?

      As a prospective member, you have to abide by their t&c to become a member. It's a requirement of membership.

      As for "They even grabbed our personal details as a result of their deception.", you provided them willingly. That was despite the application form showing it was a DinersClub promotion - that I assume you aren't a member of.

      I warned that the last deal requested DinersClub membership number. Based on problems last deal, this far more popular deal was likely to fail with people upset.

      Believe me as a business selling expensive services, they won't be interested in contacting people who can't afford a discounted membership. If you were in business this membership is a normal business deduction. It's a way of weeding out the freeloaders, not a "bait and switch".

      You were given 4 weeks free access to free coffee & cubicles. Hope you enjoyed it while it lasted. I warned it may not. But who here heeds warnings or reads t&c.

    How can our "application" get rejected if it's already been accepted. A membership number was already issued and a confirmation email telling us that we've joined Regus Businessworld and our welcome pack, including our membership card would be mailed out shortly. Full of lies. Get your shit together Simon Randell.
