Can anybody HELP US?

We as many of you will know have been located at no 8 Amohia st next to the railway station for the last 21 years. Well that was up until October last when as a result of the council we had to uplift our roots and relocate to continue in business. We are a small family run business.
The council began the works around the railway station and failed to advise us prior to what the impact was going to be. In their word “we forgot about you”
They cut off all pedestrian traffic to us. Then they have dug across our front boundary and despite the contractors acknowledging this they have made no attempt to rectify it. The contractors have run amok over our property and I have trespassed them but then again today the same culprit trespassed again despite assurances from the council that they would not.
We have written to the mayor, deputy mayor and the chef executive but these individuals have just ignored us. What can we do with a council that will not enforce the bylaws on themselves? They are behaving as though they are above the law and showing no accountability for their actions and in my opinion they should be ashamed of themselves.
We are exasperated by how the council are treating us.

To our valued customers

We apologize if you have been having a problem finding us. Unfortunately, the council failed to advise us of the impact their plans in building the new transport interchange would have on us and the access to our premises.

We were later advised by a council officer that they had forgotten to advise us that we would be impacted, we weren’t advised however that we would be completely cut off, making it almost impossible for you, our valued customers, to come in for all your computer needs.

In the ongoing process they have abused and obstructed our customers, illegally breached our boundary line, and obstructed easy access to our premises. We do apologize for this and assure you that we are working to get this sorted.

We are excited to share that you won’t need to battle to get into our premises anymore as we have relocated to 1/7 Hinemoa Street, Paraparaumu. This is in the ‘Old Mill’ building the first building on the right just over the railway crossing. We are on the corner and entrance with parking (no potholes!) is from Hinemoa St.

You will find us here in our new bright premises serving you our valued customers as we have since 1996 with our holistic approach to computer sales, support and service.

There you will find our huge range of power adapters, laptop adapters, cables including most audio, video, and computer.
Batteries, computer parts and of course a great range of ex lease computers, laptops, tablets etc

We look forward to seeing you soon!

There has currently been an increase in spam emails looking to obtain your bank login details by asking you to verify them
They appear to have been from most of the banks ie Westpac, kiwibank, Anz , ASB etc.
Remember no bank will send you an email wanting you to verify your details.
Delete these emails.
If they have managed to fool you contact your bank immediately.

Also a reminder to look out for the fake phone call telling you that you have computer issues.
They will say they are from Microsoft, Spark, Vodaphone etc.
Tell them you don’t have a computer or just hang up the phone.
