“I recently reached out to Bunac for assistance with my Canada Ski Season. I was soon put in touch with Ed Sayers and can't recommend him enough, he made me feel so at ease and answered all my questions brilliantly, he had done the exact same season I wanted to do, so found him super knowledgeable. He offered me his time and assistance which has proved to be invaluable for my trip, Thank you so much, Ed.”

“Bunac Team was helpful and supportive during the process. I always reached out by email and got a response in no more than 24h. Everything was nice and I fully enjoyed my internship in London. They also gave me guides with step by step on the whole visa process.”

“Overall, if you could avoid using BUNAC, I would. I thought BUNAC was generally a fine platform, but the website was incredibly buggy and confusing. When uploading documents, what was actually required was incredibly unclear. I uploaded all documents that BUNAC requested on their “documents” tab, but still received emails telling me that I had missing information. The emails included few instructions for how to complete the task. Any instructions that were given would instruct me to view pages that I could not find or upload documents to places on the website that did not exist. If you tried replying to any emails, no response was given. The application status bar could have been helpful if it actually worked. After completing the application and uploaded required documents, my application would show that I had incomplete documents or tasks. When completing my required entry forms, again I found the website glitchy, saying that there were still things I needed to complete. Even after completing my internship, my portal on the website still says that I have only 87% of my application complete and that I have documents that I need to upload. This made it incredibly frustrating to know what I needed to do to continue. Because of all these issues, I had to reach out to support often. There was no information on the portal for how to contact support, I had to find these details in the emails from BUNAC. The support team was incredibly helpful, but it shouldn’t have taken this much. I independently organized an internship placement so I did not use BUNAC for that. I found the price for using BUNAC was incredibly steep, $800 for their services alone, not including paying for the actual visa. I had no choice but to use this service as it was what my organization used for visa applications. The only advantages of BUNAC were that they had internships you could apply for on their website if you needed to, that they (sort of) highlighted what documentation you would need for a visa, and that they had helpful support staff. I’m sure there is a lot that BUNAC does outside of what I see to ensure that I get my visa, but I can only speak from my experience. BUNAC is definitely an okay option for applying for a visa, but it comes with irritation and confusion. After many emails to support, everything turned out fine in the end. If you can, I would avoid using BUNAC for your visa application.”

“The procedure for obtaining my visa was quick, simple and structured. I was accompanied by BUNAC. Even during my assignment, BUNAC checked to make sure that everything was going well for me. They are very attentive. I'd like to thank Kira Watson specifically for her help and for listening to me!”

“Currently in the process of getting my working holiday visa sorted for Australia. Going with the kickstart program with Bunac. Wanted to drop a shout-out and say a big thank you to Ed Sayers, who has been a delight to talk to, whilst looking at the best options with packages for my move to Australia and kept in touch throughout. He is knowledgeable and has a friendly approachable nature when building dialogue. All the best in NZ Ed! Cheers!!”
