Real Help for the Homeless - Want to be part of it?

David from Ohauiti

CONCERNED FOR THE HOMELESS IN TAURANGA?

I know a homeless Maori family of 5 who have been struggling for about a year to find a house to rent and who currently sleep in tents in the park.

Like us, you may have a house with two or three spare bedrooms, but are concerned that if you let a family move in until they can find a more permanent place to rent, it could be a very long wait, and you are just not willing to make that kind of commitment or take such a risk.

Perhaps, if you were part of a group of 4 or 5 people or more who were willing to take turns for 2-4 weeks housing a family such as that above, you would be able to express your concern for the homeless in a really significant way.

Please contact me, David Kidd, at churchofgodslove4@gmail.com or 02041283124 if you do have spare bedrooms you might be prepared to rent short term, and would like to come to a meeting discussing how this idea could really work for the homeless.

WINTERS COMING, so please get back to me ASAP, so we can soon bring good news to a family, hopefully the one I mentioned above.

Please could you tell anyone you think might be interested.

Regards
David

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? ๐Ÿ›ป๐Ÿšจ๐Ÿš“

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.

๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and youโ€™re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.

Remember, banks will:โ€‹โ€‹
โŒ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codesโ€‹โ€‹
โŒ Never need to know your full credit card number โ€“ especially the CVC
โŒ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your deviceโ€‹โ€‹
โŒ 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.
