Snapper on before 7am for Early Bird special (Off-Peak) bus fares trial
Metlink is introducing an Early Bird special (Off-Peak) bus fares concession trial from Monday 10 Feb.
The Early Bird special provides off-peak Snapper fares for Metlink bus services prior to 7am on working days. The Early Bird off-peak fare will be available for a trial period of four months from 10 February until 12 June 2020. Off-peak Snapper fares are 25% cheaper than normal Snapper fares.
The Early Bird special is an addition to existing off-peak fares, which already apply for Adult Snapper customers between 9am and 3pm and after 6.30pm on working days, and weekends.
What are we trying to achieve? We want to see if cheaper fares will encourage bus commuters to travel earlier in the day, when there is more capacity available on buses. Our ultimate aim is to spread demand over a wider period during the morning commute, and to relieve pressure on heavily used services in the peak period. That will lead to better services for all.

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.
