Cancellation of End of Year Activities
SeniorNet Hawke’s Bay Inc.
Temporary Closure of Mary Doyle (Nimon House).
SeniorNet H.B apologizes to members for the disruption to our end of term activities, created by an outbreak of the highly contagious Norovirus Infection in Nimon House, the home of our Learning Center. It is highly unlikely that entry will be possible before this coming weekend.
Reluctantly Windows 10 (all 3 classes), the final Android for Beginners class and the Members Social Day have had to be postponed. These activities will be repeated early in the New Year so keep an eye out for our New Year Newsletter. We ask that members re-register for the Windows 10 classes if the new dates are suitable. Your payment will be carried forward.

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓
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?
-
36.5% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)
-
63.5% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)
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.
