⚠WATER OUTAGE – TE ARO⚠

The Team from Wellington Water

Our crews are responding to a water outage in Te Aro.

This is affecting:
- 157-187 Vivian Street
- Walter Street
- Bute Street

Crews are working to repair this and get water back on as soon as possible.

Water is expected to be back on by 2.30pm. In the meantime, we have arranged for water to be supplied at 167 Vivian Street.

Residents are reminded to keep two metres distance while collecting water, only take what is required for their household, and to return home once water has been collected so our crews can safely get on with the repairs. We encourage residents to carry-out appropriate hygiene practices before and after collecting water.

We apologise for the inconvenience caused by this outage.

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.
