What we checked

Including the checks that did not pass, and the ones that never ran. A blank is not a pass.

  • Independently corroboratedNot confirmed

    Only one source describes this business. That is an entry, not corroboration.

  • Website reachableConfirmed

    Last reached 1 Sept 2026 over HTTPS, HTTP 200.

  • Phone number confirmedNot confirmed

    The listed number does not match the one on their own website. Often a stale listing, sometimes a lead reseller in between.

  • ABN confirmedNot checked

    No ABN is published on their website. Most small businesses don't publish one, so this is a bonus signal rather than a warning.

We hold the count and the average, not the individual reviews, so we cannot tell you whether those reviews arrived steadily over years or all in one fortnight. The second is far more likely to have been bought, and we would tell you if we could.
