Posting on Neighbourly
Does anyone else find it frustrating that Neighbourly acts so Gestapo- like and won't let you answer a post that comes up on Neighbourly??
Sometimes people just don't always understand how to post on neighbourly and they don't open it up to everyone. Especially when offering an item for sale.
Twice lately I have wanted to buy something from this forum and it came back that they are not in my neighbourhood so I can't contact them. I phoned one person and they did want to sell it to me, but I had to look them up in the phone book and call them. Not everyone is listed in the phone book, though.
If we're being neighbourly, and let's face it, we really do need our neighbours these days, why is Stuff so limiting and domineering. You used to be able to message someone who had something you wanted to buy or discuss with them, but now you can't get in touch at all.
I put it to Stuff and Neighbourly that you aren't being neighbourly at all!! Why can't you add a feature that one could get in touch with a person who isn't from your neighbourhood or why can't we all be neighbours with a restriction available when you only want it in your area.
You now can't even answer a post now.
THIS ISN'T BEING NEIGHBOURLY
Poll: Canterbury is thriving on paper... but are you seeing evidence of Canterbury's improving economy?
As reported in the Press, Reserve Bank Governor Anna Breman recently gave a shout-out to our region, calling Canterbury a "stand-out" for how we recover from tough times. With tech firms growing and exporters investing, the business side of things is looking bright!
👉 But we know that "business growth" doesn't always mean the weekly shop gets any cheaper. While the city expands, many families feel like they’re just trying to keep their heads above water.
We want to know: With the business buzz of 2026, do you feel like things are finally looking up for your household, or does it still feel like a climb?

🧩😏 Riddle me this, Neighbours…
I am an odd number. Take away a letter and I become even. What number am I?
