MAKE YOUR OLD AND FOREIGN MONEY WORK FOR OUR KIDS
Bring along your pennies, half-crowns, five cent pieces, pound notes and all…
Your euros, USD, AUD, and Ringgits….
(Current NZ money will also be gratefully received 😊 )
Please place them in the newly refurbished “Heads up for Kids” box at the Karori New World exit – to convert old money and foreign money to real NZ$$.
The proceeds from this nation-wide Lions programme are used to provide a helping hand for young people to engage in an experience or activity that will assist their academic, physical, creative, and leadership development to enable them to establish life goals, follow their dreams, and reach their full potential.
Activities like: Outward Bound, Sir Edmund Hillary Outdoor Pursuits Centre, Spirit of Adventure and various other New Zealand based educational and leadership programmes.
Please have a rummage at home to unearth these silent treasures – you’ll have fun doing it!
Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓
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?
-
36.7% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)
-
63.3% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)
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.
