A tasty & convivial day!
We had a great day on our Gourmet Gallivant trip to Katikati & Waihi Beach yesterday. We started with a really interesting talk & tour by Jill & enjoyed tasting the excellent cheese at Mount Eliza Cheese. Paul & I loved the buttery Blue Monkey & Raw Milk Red Leicester. We moved on to Harbourside Macadamias for another excellent presentation & tasting. Yay! They had macadamia brittle, our favourite - macadamia butter, liqueur, oil, plus.... We had an enjoyable tasting of Mills Reef & Leveret Estate wines at The Wine Portfolio & there was a lot of laughter & tall stories on the bus after the visit. We had a tasty Fish & chip lunch at Flat White Cafe before indulging our sweet tooth at Chez Moi Chocolaterie. The White Chocolate with Pistachio & freeze-dried raspberries (GF) was but one of the decadent tastes at this special venue. We'll be redoing this trip every month, but it can also be booked Tuesday- Friday on a date you choose for your own group of ten. Gift vouchers available!
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.
