Remote computer support

Christopher from Create IT

If you've got an internet connection, but can't figure out how to do something on your computer, Create IT offers remote support.
Normally I provide it to support existing clients, and charge a minimum fee, but have a billing system can track time to the nearest minute, so during lockdown, if you need help, I'll waive the minimum fee and you'll be charged only for the actual time used.
You can download the support software from the link provided. It's preconfigured so that only Create IT can connect remotely to your computer, and only after you explicitly grant permission, and phone to confirm.

Being a local home based IT business, lockdown doesn't have much impact, but last lockdown I had to provide considerable IT support to my own household, so I want others to know that they can get help if they need it, without bursting their bubble.

I am reasonably busy, but will help if I can.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?

Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?
