Woolworths online issues

Barbara from Raureka

Hi. I am interested if any neighbours have had a problem with Woolworths deducting your online order payment from your credit card and then losing the order and making it so hard to get them to give the money back. They do eventually but it can take up to 7 days for them to refund your money because they blame the bank for holding it up. To me its theft because you are short in my case $200 that is for groceries until they refund the money. The person I spoke to at the bank to see if they could help said it had happened to them as well. This is the second time it has happened to me now. Not acceptable.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

New neighbour

Julie Neighbourly Lead from Havelock North

Okay folks, if you feed your animals outside, you might want to rethink that. We have new nocturnal neighbours, inside Havelock North.
There is a very well fed brush tail possum up the pōhutukawa tree in my garden.
I don’t know where it’s come in from, but it’s in the middle of a residential neighbourhood, so keep an eye on your pet doors, open windows and doors and pet food.
I’ll be notifying council and DOC tomorrow.
