A special thank you to the local Men's Shed for refurbishing our digger. We purchased this over 15 years ago from a small family business in Matamata - Baxendine Brothers.

We purchased this over 15 years ago from a small family business in Matamata - Baxendine Brothers. Sadly they do not operate any more (as far as I am aware) and the digger was in need of some serious TLC. The Men's Shed came to the rescue and practically rebuilt our wonderful and much loved digger. I look forward to seeing many more children enjoying the digger in our sandpit over the next 15 years and more!

Ola is a scam

Huco from Remuera

Ola Cab is a scam.
I ordered an Ola on Monday 1.30pm, which arrived within 10 minutes. The trip was from Remuera to Greenlane Clinic Centre, a distance of 4.7km. Ola has the offer of $5 if the distance is less than 5km.

Ola Cab is a scam.
I ordered an Ola on Monday 1.30pm, which arrived within 10 minutes. The trip was from Remuera to Greenlane Clinic Centre, a distance of 4.7km. Ola has the offer of $5 if the distance is less than 5km.
I was charged on my credit card $15. In asking the driver who I could complain to, he responded that the company operates from India. Later that day I received an account email from OlaCab the trip was $11.37, Booking Fees $0.48, Ride Advantage Fee $0.52, a Total bill of $12.37.

Ola did not refund the difference between the $15 charged and the $12.37 bill emailed. My telephone call to Ola went nowhere.

My conclusion, it’s a scam. Be aware. Have you been disadvantaged?
