King single bed there can be used or removed. Near Queens Square. 10 mins walk to New World. Hastings. Off street parking available. $130 p/w includes everything except food and toiletries including unlimited internet. Must help out with the household cleaning and be honest, reliable & an effective communicator. No smokers or pets. All applicants are required to provide a NZ police check (which means you will have to have been in New Zealand for at least a year) and 2 phone references and have good, understandable spoken English. Available now but I want some-one who is in no rush so we can firstly have a few video calls to see if we're suitable. You'll need to messenger me on my FB name of : Marmaduke Patrick (rather than leaving a comment here or anywhere else otherwise I will miss your inquiry).
If you are interested and tell me about yourself and we could organise a time to online chat via face time. This is a gentle, quiet home in Hastings

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.
