Probus Speaker – Brian Colegate on Retirement Villiages
Just a reminder that Tawa Probus is back in action after a couple months break while COVID passed through Tawa. Visitors and perspective new members are very welcome.
This Monday 16th May, we meet again as normal at the Tawa Bowling Club, Davies Street, 9.30am.
We will be having our delayed brief AGM and then a speaker Brian Colegate. Brian is a resident in a Paraparaumu retirement village and has recently published a book on retirement villages titled – "Retirement Villages - Residents Verdict". Over the last decade we have seen an explosive growth in retirement villages and at some stage most older people may consider the prospect of moving into a village. Brian will present an unbiased view of the pros and cons of retirement village life and discuss some of the widely reported issues around the retirement village model.

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.
