TSB BRANCH FITZROY
Hi everyone. Does anybody know if there is a partition going around to stop the closure of the TSB Fitzroy Branch. To me, it is a bad move by our local bank to close this branch. We are now told that we will be able to use Bell Block Branch or go into the middle of town to the Centre Branch. Good luck with that?? Tell that to all the elderly people who have been living in Fitzroy and surrounding suburbs for many years. Just how these people are going to get to these branches is mind boggling. All they want to do is go and get cash out from a teller - not a machine sticking out of a wall that they have trouble using - stand in a queue at the supermarket and see how well older people go at using their card.
The TSB has always been about people and the connectivity between customers and staff - not customers and machines or faceless people at the end of a phone (at least their phone operators I believe are here in New Plymouth and not some far off land)
Come on TSB, get back to the basics and look after your customers. Remember they pay your wages.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
