Free: ASKO washing machine - needs repairs but a great machine
My ASKO washing machine (front loader) flooded this morning. It needs either a new valve or a new circuit / computer board. The service folks were going to take it on Tuesday. It was a top of the range machine when I bought it. Washes really well. I was going to get it repaired but discovered that I could get the new machine I had ordered as part of my kitchen renovation earlier than anticipated (was supposed to be delivered in May due to COVID, my kitchen designer pulled some strings so I can get the new machine next week). If anyone wants it either because they are handy and can fix it, or wants the parts - you are welcome to come and get it this weekend. The only condition is I'm short and you will need to carry it. And not bash my walls!
🧩😏 Riddle me this, Neighbours…
I am an odd number. Take away a letter and I become even. What number am I?

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.
