Internet issues

Advaita from Mount Albert

Update: The chorus technicians have come and fixed it. Our lines were cut when installing the street light poles. Our internet is working and hopefully the same with everyone else.

Thank you for everyone who came forward to raise the issue. You all would have received an email that this has been raised with trades dispute who will be taking over the complaint and handling this for us.

Kia Ora,

If you are one of the houses effected by lack of internet in our area please note that we have just had a chat with the technicians who came to visit. They have only come to assess the issue and they have had no idea about the issue till today. The issue will keep extending because our providers have not communicated this issue with the main provider -chorus. This issue can go on for a while if we don’t put pressure on our providers whose management will then need to get in touch with the technicians to fix it. It’s very frustrating but looks like our calls are going into thin air and we will need the support of everyone effected to get this sorted.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?
