This company is not worthwhile at all. You pay for the company a year in advance and do not find out if you have a job lined up or your start dates until not even a month prior. Why be so organised fo... See more

Disgusting service

Same situation as a lot of other people. Paid in full and then COVID-19 happened and they refuse to return the money, even though they were unable to get me a job over in Canada. Not to mention the months leading up to it, they gave a lot of false hope. VERY DODGY COMPANY. DO NOT USE!

Refused to give a refund despite being unable to find me a job as a result of COVID-19 and have heard lots of similar stories. Lots of better agencies to go through, would not recommend

Best 2 years of my life!!!

I could not Thank The Working Holiday club enough. I had the best 2 years of my life at Whistler. I went over 2 years ago with a friend for the Winter and was meant to go back to Uni 9 months later. I ended up staying the whole 2 years even after my friend left. I fell in love with Whistler! These guys set me up with an interview with Whistler in Adelaide so I had my job nearly 6 months before I started. There was so helpful when I got to Canada. Best 2 years of my life!!

Thanks Ella. It makes us so happy you ended up using the full visa for 2 years.

So worthless

So worthless. Just give me my money back. Your terms & conditions literally states “In the case of an event beyond the control of the participant (i.e. accident, death in the family, impossibility to travel for medical conditions not known at the time of the enrolment), THE WORKING HOLIDAY CLUB ™ will consider the possibility of a full or partial refund of the program fee” Doesn’t a global pandemic come under these conditions? I would think so.
