The great people in Whangarei
I put this post on FB last Saturday. It has been very popular so I have decided to share it here on neighborly. as below.
Feeling blessed today I went into the Whangarei CBD on my mobility scooter went to my favorite cafe Fresh for takeouts the staff were lovely. I sat on my scooter in the sun and watched the shoppers go by while I ate.
So many smiling happy people, then off to Motown for a haircut and more happy people.
Then Pak N Save again on my mobility scooter, it can be difficult to reach high areas 4 different women helped me at different times all with a smile.
Then headed home while going through the town basin my hat blew off, by the time I was able to turn around a young lady asked if she could get it for me.
All assistance today was appreciated thank you the people of Whangarei

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.
