๐Ÿ‘‰ Introducing... Hills Help ๐Ÿ‘ˆ

Hills Church

This is a difficult time for everyone. However, there are some people who will find this to be a more trying time than it is for most of us. We donโ€™t want to see anyone fall through the cracks and not receive the help they need.

๐Ÿ“ฑWe have set up a dedicated phone number - 021 266 3143 - for people who are struggling emotionally and would like someone to talk and pray with. It will be operated by various staff members at different times during the week. If you know or are aware of anyone who needs help, either spiritually or emotionally, then please give them the above number. We care and weโ€™re here to help.

โค๏ธ We also have people who are available to help with shopping and supermarket delivery for those who need assistance. The food bank food parcels are also available for those who need special care. To organise this just contact the Hills Help on the above number. Also if any of you are wanting to help out with this please email Hannah at office@hillschurch.nz (weekdays).

Flick us a private message and we will pass on the number - or if you attend Hills Church then join our family group for more updates.

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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.

๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and youโ€™re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.

Remember, banks will:โ€‹โ€‹
โŒ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codesโ€‹โ€‹
โŒ Never need to know your full credit card number โ€“ especially the CVC
โŒ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your deviceโ€‹โ€‹
โŒ 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.
