JUSTICE OF THE PEACE ON THE MOVE

Frank from Orewa

With effect 1st April 2019, the Orewa Justices of the Peace will be carrying out their service at the Orewa Barber Shop located in the corner of Hilliary Square Orewa (in between the Noodle Canteen and The Cobbler Shop). It is anticipated that the service will remain at the barber shop until the 31st July 2019 when they will relocate back to the Citizens Advice Bureau (CAB). We thank Lorraine and her staff for making the area available for the period while the CAB is being upgraded.

Normal services will be conducted but customers are reminded that there will be no computer facilities or photocopying services available. Photocopying may still be carried out at the Orewa Library.

Hours of Operations are:

Monday 10am - 12.30pm
Tuesday 12.30pm - 3pm
Wednesday 12.30pm - 3pm
Thursday 10am - 12 noon
Friday 12.30pm - 3pm
Saturday 10am - 12.30pm

There will be NO Justice of the Peace service on Saturday, 6th April and any public holiday falling during the period

The Orewa Justices of the Peace request all customers to be patient and considerate while we settle into the new location. Please remember that Justices of the Peace are all VOLUNTEERS and their service is provided free of charge.

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.
