I have been using this site for 3 months after injuring myself at work. Every fortnight when I try to lodge my form, the system is down. I can barely walk yet I then have to call a taxi (for $35) and then make my way down to the Centrelink office. I feel for the elderly who have to put up with this. What a horrible service.
I have tried 3 times to link centrelink with my gov now I have to go into centrelink tomorrow to reactivate my centrelink account because my gov $@#& up.
It's not just useless, it's dangerous - I've deleted my account but I'm still nervous that my personal details could be exposed on a database somewhere, people capable of producing something so bad are unlikely to have good security in place.
Im an in desperate need to get into it but cant. Makes me go through a security protocal and then i need my mobile number which doesnt even get the code that mygov apparently sends. Load of $#*!ing $#*! $#*! you $#*!s
The new mygov is $#*!, it took my 45 minutes to sign in and still can't report. You fixed that wasn't broken, centrelink express was the best no stuffing about
This website is the biggest load of $#*! I've had to deal with! Nothing ever works properly! Have just had to set up 3 different accounts and still got blocked from each attempt because my answers to questions are supposedly incorrect! The government should be ashamed of itself! Not going to bother using it ever again!
I have had to make an account since I am now over 16 and my mother now can't access my details and records and when I attempted to make the account I discovered what a collosal piece of $#*! this website is. I set up the account and made three security questions with fairly easy answers. Less than two minutes later I had to answer them to log-in and yet for all five attempts they allowed me for the three questions I was told the answer's were wrong. This is bull$#*!. I had written the answers for these questions just a couple minutes ago and I am 100% sure on the spelling and capitalisation of my answers and yet I was repeatedly told that they were not the answers I had provided. This is bull$#*!. They force me to make an account so that I can actually access my records and yet they do this therefore making it impossible. I am unsure whether this occurred simply because I attempted to make the account on my iPhone but I will attempt to do it again later on my laptop. Even if it is simply because I was trying to do it on my phone that would be ridiculous as not everyone has access to a computer and in our day and age literally everyone uses a phone. If that is the issue then it really needs to be fixed because it's the stupidest waste of time I've ever been subjected to.
Mygov website in Australia is a government "all in one" site for all federal government departments that the public has to deal with for most issues relating to the general public. Problem is that mygov is basically a tool of the Australian government to impose harsh, unrealistic, unjust, unfair and down right illegal acts, decisions and process that all sections in it are responsible for!. Mygov site is an attempt to bring together all information about everyone in all departments into one area, good in the sense it is a "one stop shop" bad in the sense that all departments share all info and each department uses all the info to it's discretion, in other words, now the government knows all and everything about everyone on it's list, "big brother is watching". The site is a-typical of the Australian government, it is designed and implemented to the wants and needs of the government departments, with little to no care or feedback from the public, and even with feedback, nothing is ever done, nothing is ever acknowledged and the Australian government and it's departments label anyone (in a very typical dictatorship style) that complains as a "trouble maker" regardless of weather the government is in the right or wrong.
