New Uber Eats surcharge for busy areas

Caroline Williams Reporter from Stuff

Hi neighbours. Uber Eats has introduced a "busy area fee" for orders made during peak hours, where customers will pay a higher delivery fee to restaurants identified by an arrow on the app. Uber said the fee will ensure a variety of restaurants will be available during busy periods.
What do you think, is this fair? Will you still use Uber Eats when the surcharge applies?

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
