Off-peak bus disruptions today
Wellington off-peak bus customers will face disruptions to their travel today from 9:30am to 3pm as some NZ Bus drivers head to the Tramways Union Annual General Meeting.
Barbara Donaldson, Chair of Greater Wellington Regional Council’s Sustainable Transport Committee, says the AGM will not affect school services but will impact customers using off- peak services.
“We will keep customers updated through our website, app and social media channels, as well as public information in the press and radio”.
Customers can use Metlink’s website to check for reduced services, or call our Metlink team on 0800 801 700.
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.
