$5 Glass Collection / Fundraiser

Naomi from Matua

Hi Matua neighbourhood :) I'm fundraising for a trip in June to PNG to help out on a medical ship that administers to remote coastal towns in Papua New Guinea. I'm on the team that educates and makes the 1000s of people waiting to be seen comfortable.

If you're interested in helping me fundraise and also interested in recycling glass then would you let me know? I'm offering a $5 weekly glass pick on Friday 11th, 18th, 25th May & 1st June.

If you want to do this THANK YOU!!!! It will make so much of a difference and means a lot to me and the people we'll help in PNG.
Let me know on 0226410695 with your address and dates you want collection.

Naomi Cowland 02-0404-0010483-35 is the account you can pay into for the collection and if you could reference your address that would be great.

Collect your glass in whatever bin, bucket or box you have (no bigger then about a banana box size please), put it out on the roadside on Thursday before 4pm and I'll collect the glass, sort and recycle it after work :)

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? πŸ›»πŸš¨πŸš“

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.
