Internet issues

Advaita from Mount Albert

Update: The chorus technicians have come and fixed it. Our lines were cut when installing the street light poles. Our internet is working and hopefully the same with everyone else.

Thank you for everyone who came forward to raise the issue. You all would have received an email that this has been raised with trades dispute who will be taking over the complaint and handling this for us.

Kia Ora,

If you are one of the houses effected by lack of internet in our area please note that we have just had a chat with the technicians who came to visit. They have only come to assess the issue and they have had no idea about the issue till today. The issue will keep extending because our providers have not communicated this issue with the main provider -chorus. This issue can go on for a while if we don’t put pressure on our providers whose management will then need to get in touch with the technicians to fix it. It’s very frustrating but looks like our calls are going into thin air and we will need the support of everyone effected to get this sorted.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
