Woman receives two cent refund from IRD for a second time

Brian from New Lynn

"Too ridiculous for words," said Annabelle Rosner after she opened a letter from the IRD. It contained a letter stating the 75-year-old was entitled to a refund. Attached to the letter was a cheque for two cents.

"Too ridiculous for words," said Annabelle Rosner after she opened a letter from the IRD. It contained a letter stating the 75-year-old was entitled to a refund. Attached to the letter was a cheque for two cents.
"It is the second year in a row I have received this. The letter said it had something to do with KiwiSaver," she said. "I only ever belonged to KiwiSaver for an afternoon." She said her employer at the time quickly realised it was a bit silly to sign a 72-year-old up for KiwiSaver, so he cancelled it for her. She rang the IRD about the refund last year and said they seemed a bit embarrassed about it. She assumed they would have done something about it, so imagine her surprise when she came home in early February, after a few weeks away, to find yet another letter and cheque. "This time, the person from IRD I spoke to said that perhaps they ought to do something about it. What a waste of money to keep sending this to me," she said.

Hi all

Have broken down a stone wall, and looking to see if anyone would be interested in any stones. Have been broken down in big and small pieces. Could possibly drop off if local.

Crum Park Walkers

Andrea from Green Bay

The weather has taken it's toll on the group even at 9am. Lots and lots of sweating which is good but smelly 🤭 Sore knees, ankles, feet and blisters which are a bloody nuisance. Some of us have gone from shades of white, pink, red, angry red, brown, dark brown and black 🤔 who might that … View moreThe weather has taken it's toll on the group even at 9am. Lots and lots of sweating which is good but smelly 🤭 Sore knees, ankles, feet and blisters which are a bloody nuisance. Some of us have gone from shades of white, pink, red, angry red, brown, dark brown and black 🤔 who might that be. We take short regular rest and water breaks in the shade. We start our walk with usual morning greetings, friendly banter, humor, gossip, refusing to do those bloody stairs (Marion), and picking on Stewart. Hot Tip #1 - Stay Hydrated. #2 - If feeling really hot or overheated head to a bottle store cooler room ❄❄
