Rural Rental Home Required!

Sheryl from Gordonton - Puketaha

We are a professional couple in our 50's looking for another home to rent in the Hamilton rural area. Im moving back to the Waikato after 5 years in Taranaki, but my partner has been renting a country home in Gordonton for the last 10 years. We were happy to stay in this area but the farm he is on has been sold, and sadly we have to move by June 1. Its just us now as all the kids have flown the nest! We are not into drugs or parties and would treat your house as our own. We have pets (what family doesn't) - small dog, 2 cats and a few chickens. All housetrained - apart from the chickens of course, but they're not allowed inside anyway! My dog is used to a perimeter fence so will not bother stock. We have great references (including the pets!). Would prefer 2-4 bdm, with garaging. Love to hear from you! Call Sheryl 027-255 8842 or Paul 027-393 3287

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?

What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?

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.

πŸ›‘οΈ 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.
