Baby Grand Piano - Free to a Good Home!! - Needs to be gone before 21 November

Judy from Aro Valley

I need to dispose of a baby grand piano on behalf of someone. The piano and stool are free but you would have to pay for a mover. I could assist to organise that with my contacts which, given it's movers busiest time of the year, would be useful.

The owner says: The tone is quite lovely and it sounds good when played. I can’t swear to the length but it should be about 4’11. It's due for a tune. The ivories are in good condition, nothing sticky about the hammers. It's a basic piano and a beautiful piece of furniture. I need to let it go and would be very happy for someone to take it for the cost of moving.
A piano reconditioning specialist said: It's a reasonably good make. It needs work, including restringing. The easiest is to give it away "as is" on the understanding it needs work. It is a baby grand so will always be a bit short on tone.

Please call me on 027 450 5057 if you are seriously interested.
I can't seem to add a picture but can send one separately if needed.

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓

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.

🛡️ 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.
