If you are an executor and need to apply for probate of a will, you may like to try our almost-automated onllne interview. When it works (!), it is even simpler than our previous system.

Hi neighbours,
It's been two years since the Kaikōura earthquake and for local Celeste Sharplin, it still feels like it only happened last week. Like many Kaikōura locals, she got '7.8' inked to her forearm. She says the tattoo is "a good connection, you see someone with it … View moreHi neighbours,
It's been two years since the Kaikōura earthquake and for local Celeste Sharplin, it still feels like it only happened last week. Like many Kaikōura locals, she got '7.8' inked to her forearm. She says the tattoo is "a good connection, you see someone with it and you're like 'you're not alone'."

Be aware, police have identified a new telephone scam targeting New Zealanders. If you receive an angry call from someone seeking compensation for car damages, hang up. To read more, click here.
What you need to know:
- The call will be from an international number that's then redirected through a local number.
- The aggressive scammer could be very convincing.
- Upon answering, they demand money for damages from a vehicle collision they claim you were involved in.
- Police are urging people to warn elderly relatives so they do not fall victim to the scam and lose money.
- If you receive a call of this nature, police advise you to hang up immediately.

White Ribbon is asking men to take the online pledge and stand up, speak out and act to prevent men's violence towards women.
