Poll: Should all homes have curtains?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Even well-insulated homes can lose up to 45% of the room's heat without having adequate curtains. This is why Curtain Banks are in high demand at this time of year.

A petition is circulating to get curtains added as part of the Healthy Homes Standards in the hopes of helping renters avoid living in cold, damp conditions. Do you think curtains should be mandatory for New Zealand homes?

ASB SCAM HEADS UP

Moyrah from Tauranga City

My friend has a ASB debit card and does not buy on line or travel just uses it for groceries and she has been getting money coming out in small amounts since February, the bank have cancelled her card and issued her another one but a few minutes prior to the card been cancelled another withdrawal appeared. The bank said that the scammers are cloning the cards at the supermarkets etc. but it has to be their system having a data breach which is happening overseas, and they obviously do not want to say anything otherwise everyone would be closing their bank accounts, has anyone else had a problem
