Electricity & Internet Providers
Hi Neighbors!
My small family of three will be moving into our new house soon and we want to know what providers provide the best value for electricity and internet.
We have a 6-month-old and will be welcoming an au pair to join us so effectively there would be 4 of us. We saw that trustpower is offering a 24-month contract, and they will be including Samsung appliances in the bundle (very helpful since we haven’t bought anything!!), but we think it sounded too good to be true and we hate to experience internet or power outage!
Last thing we want is to have internet issues since I’m heading back to uni!!
Is anyone with Trustpower? Any other recommendations are welcome!! Appreciate any two cents worth :)
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?
-
59.5% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
24.6% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.9% ... It is complicated
A Neighbourly Riddle! Don’t Overthink It… Or Do?😜

If you multiply this number by any other number, the answer will always be the same. What number is this?
Night-time chipsealing works on SH2
From 9 to 17 February, stop/go traffic management will be in place on SH2 between McPherson Road and Dimmock Road on multiple nights between 9pm and 5am (Sundays to Thursdays).
During the day, all lanes will be open, but speed restrictions will apply to allow the chipseal to set and to protect vehicles travelling over the newly laid surface.
There may be delays to your journey when travelling through the area. This is weather dependent so check NZTA Journey Planner before you travel.
