GOOD NEWS!!!!!!!! π Laundromats AND ATMs will stay open during lockdown. π
I got this text message from EZ Wash Laundromat this morning: "Dear customers, we have a great news from Newshub today, that self-service laundries can remain stay open during lockdown. So we will no longer provide drop off service until further notice after 4 weeks. We still open for self service only from 6am to midnight daily. Please bring your own coins or notes when you come to do your washing, as [our] eftpos machine is not available during these time. Sorry for the inconvenience. Please stay safe. From EZ Wash Laundromat."
I also got a call from someone at Phil Twyford's office this morning. π He told me ATMs would remain open too, so that's another bit of good news. π

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
π‘οΈ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and youβre unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:ββ
β Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codesββ
β Never need to know your full credit card number β especially the CVC
β Never ask you to download software or remotely access your deviceββ
β Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
