Poll: What do you think about Lime e-scooters?
Hi neighbours,
Electric scooters have been zooming about your city for a couple of weeks now, and we want to know your thoughts on them!
Lime e-scooters have made the news recently after Christchurch schools banned them from school grounds. There have been instances where the scooters have been disrespected and dumped in the ocean, and have even had fireworks attached to them.
However some people are in support of the scooters, and have even found a way to make extra pocket money from them.
So what are your thoughts on the use of electric scooters in the Garden City? Are they a nuisance or a whole lot of fun? Share your thoughts with us in the replies below.

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.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ 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.
