KCDC 😡
My mother lives in a council owned pensioner flat in Paraparaumu Beach.
She has been there for 3 years this coming October I think 🤔
The people had notice recently that there would be a rent hike from the end of September.
This would be the 2nd increase since mum moved in.
The 1st increase was 3.5%.
The latest increase will be 44% !!!!
The inhabitants signed a petition which the Council have rejected.
Would a private landlord be brought to task over such a large increase ?
There is nothing in law that states what landlords can charge.
🧩😏 Riddle me this, Neighbours…
I am an odd number. Take away a letter and I become even. What number am I?
Do you think you know the answer?

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.
