The Mana Singles Stir - SOS Party FIJI

Carole Garnham from Go4iT Travel - Carole Garnham

Being single can be hard at times especially when it comes to a holiday, but Fiji's Mana Island Resort is coming to the party and will be hosting a three day Mana SOS. The resort wants to encourage clients who may not have a significant other to make new friends, relax and enjoy the island way. The SOS - Single on Single party takes place 10-13 November 2019 and packages start from $1400 per person twin share - this is so that 2 single friends can still travel together if they so wish. After all, the idea is to meet NEW PEOPLE who are also single. Included in this deal are three nights accommodation, daily buffet breakfast and lunch, a special dinner, entertainment, cocktails, a kava ceremony and activities. SINGLE PERSON PRICE is from $1770. Other features of the resort include the Mana Spa offering four treatment rooms and a menu tailored to healthy and holistic approach. There are also five restaurants, four bars, two pools, a sports hub, boutique shop and a dive centre. This price does not include airfares or transfers but don't worry I can easily arrange these for you. And yes, in case you are wondering I have stayed at Mana Island and can say that this island has been a firm favourite of mine for many years!

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.
