Signature Required Parcels just left in Letterboxes !
Frankton/Lake Area
BEWARE! Aramex/NZ Post are just leaving 'Signature Required' parcels in letterboxes. I was expecting something expensive and after checking the tracking, it stated it had been delivered! I work from home every day and in full view of the front door - no one came to my house. I raced to the letterbox - nothing. Lodged complaint, driver admitted leaving in letterbox - SIGNATURE REQUIRED !!@ And now the fight begins to get my money back, and the sender having lost the item/value also.
Where is the responsibility when we pay for a service? I hope others are all lodging complaints too - I am taking this issue to FAIR GO now as I have had to also fork out for parcel after parcel being left in letterboxes and stolen - even though they are sent 'Signature Required' and no effort to even go to the house.
This industry needs to be held accountable. This is absolutely negligent and totally irresponsible when they ALL KNOW letterboxes are being raided/courier vans followed etc - this shows absolutely no regard for peoples items.
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.

Will these roadworks affect you?
Don’t expect a quick trip between Cambridge and Tamahere for much of this year, because major roadworks are starting.
Asphalt works on that section of Waikato Expressway will run from March through to late 2026, NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi (NZTA) says. Motorists are warned to plan for significant delays.
“Unfortunately the pavement, particularly in the slow lanes, has deteriorated faster than expected,” NZTA’s Roger Brady said.
