I'm not saying this is a scam, but be careful about scams everyone! Also, this could is kind of marketing so I'm not sure if this 'issue' should perhaps be deleted by admins

I'm unsure about this either. Generally, I believe access to MIQ should be free and equal to everyone, and no one should make money with it. However, a few people have reported being unable to use these tools (lack of skills, time or technology, for example) and have asked for paid help.

So I think people offering to reserve spots at a reasonable price can be useful to some people. But then again, I'm not sure if the repo issues section is a good place to collect services either.

With this particular one, I would be careful too. Generally, there is little information about the process in that offer. From the offer:

If you want the process quickly and you cannot wait for the delivery days, talk to me, I will speed up the process for you and I will send you another offer

I'm unsure how one could speed the process up even more.

What are your opinions?

I looked at a few more on Fivver and they mostly had references. Honestly this particular one just seems a little bit iffy.

As to the issue of paying to secure a voucher it's something I have been exploring for some of the reasons you mention (lack of time and skills mostly).

I'm cognizant that there are issues of fairness involved and maybe some people potentially unable to afford to pay but frankly when it comes down to it I'm just getting desperate and rapidly running out of both times and options--I can't leave it to chance, might sound melodramatic but my kids well-being is at stake.

Ps. None of which is to say I'm not massively grateful for this tool either because I am so thanks very much, I've been using it but it just hasn't worked out well for me I always seem too slow (I don't think I'm in a great time-zone for it either)

Listen all of you here, I just shared with you the girl who helped me, it's normal for someone to help you for money, also if you don't know and want someone to do it for you quickly I shared with you the girl who can open your problems to all of you, either a scam or something like that, the site Fiverr protects you from this, you will pay the money and will give you time, for example, 7 days and will give you your account with the reservation, if the girl does not succeed in this Fiverr will refund the money to you, where is the problem,, Help for money, you should free your mind, don't criticize when you haven't tried anything

@simimoha cool, but she wasn't good enough for you to leave a review on Fiverr?

Hi everyone, I just want to add to the comment about paid services, verses trying to do the booking by yourself. I liken this service to using the MIQ booking app (which by the way is a fantastic tool to use considering NZ governments lack of fair play for getting back home). That being said the MIQ tool gives an advantage over the average non pc literate person trying to get home and we are all very comfortable using it just as if a paid service can assist in booking a spot then why not.

Until the NZ government comes up with a better fairer means of trying to get back to the country these systems are there to help get an advantage over the average kiwi looking for a spot.
