Enable Fibre Install - Warning
As most of you are aware they are installing fibre cable around Kaiapoi, Enable are the company that will come out to your house to install it for what ever internet provider you choose, they do the outside one day and the inside another, they say you don't have to be home when they do the outside however I suggest you do because they did a terrible job, I told them to run it along the fence line and then they had to cut across the lawn along another fence line so I was aware they had to dig up a section of lawn.
So I get home and they have run the cable along the fence line however instead of digging it in they just screwed it into the fence so I have the cable visible from the street and our kitchen running along the fence, it looks terrible, then where they dug along the lawn they did a terrible job at attempting to clean up, just left clumps of dirt everywhere and you would think as a courtesy they would throw some grass seed on it... nope just dirt, I will be calling Monday to get them to come back out and fix it and make sure its clean when they leave. Just a heads up.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
58.9% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26.3% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.8% ... It is complicated
