Hired a helper from this agency and she did not work out for us at all. Fees are high and there has been issues with getting a good replacement helper of a good quality. Each time we give feedback, we will be met with insistent comments that we should reset our expectations

VERY SHADY! Lee quoted me $1888 for a transfer helper, however I came to know that her colleague Lina quoted an acquaintance of mine for $1488. Nevertheless, before knowing that, we interviewed a Myanmar transfer and found her suitable. Profile online states 2-4 off days and we specifically told her we can only give 2 due to our nature of work. During interview, the helper seems reluctant to take just 2 off days. I told her to discuss with Lee, no pressure and after the interview, I said if she doesn't want to take 2 off days, we'll give her a miss. Initially, Lee requested why not go for 3 off days, I said no. Then she said how about $800 for 2 off days. The helper had 4 years experience in SG and Lee mentioned her current is $700 (not sure how true, seems high). I told her I think we don't want to force the off days on the helper if she's that reluctant. After which Lee came back just mins later saying helper likes us and she's willing to go for $750 2 off days. We were supposed to have a face to face interview with her few days later and meanwhile, my husband saw the exact same profile in another agency and enquired the fees which was a good few hundred dollars lower. We were very upfront and told the agency about it hoping to negotiate a little. The night before our face to face interview with the helper, Lee suddenly without warning said helper is not keen anymore. I asked why and she ridiculously said helper mentioned meetup is not necessary so she is no longer keen. Guess what's the true story? I don't bother to find out though but engage at your own risk. Such unethical and unprofessional acts is really a waste of my time.

I’ve worked with Bingle from AATAS for many years for hiring good honest helpers. She is kind and tries to keep the girls safe and stands by them in the case of bad employers. The girls she provides are always professional. I have 3 small boys and so it’s critical that the girls are capable and trustworthy. I explain my exact needs and the working contract and she makes sure that the girls understand and make the choice themselves whether they want to work. The result is a much more harmonious environment for our family. We have also asked for her expertise in renewals, overseas visits and transfers and been very happy. I have recommended the agency repeatedly and am not hesitant to do so again.

Had a good experience with Ms Bingle of AATAS, even though I didn’t manage to get a helper in the end. She helped me for many weeks to find a transfer helper and sent me many bio-data. While my domestic situation changed and we didn’t have to hire in the end, she was prompt to return my deposit paid earlier. Will recommend.

Bingle handled my cases for matching domestic helper for me in the past 5 years. She is very familiar with the admin. and documentation processes so she is very efficiently in settling all the paper works that this made me hassle free. I recommend her and AATAS if anyone who is looking for Filipino domestic helper.
