Kiwi bank closing branches - Really ? whats next
It saddens me to see Kiwi bank come up with excuses to close branches in central Auckland areas. Its like the post office of the past and there is no private option set ups like chemist PO sales. The latest is the Ponsonby Rd Branch to close now the closest to a branch is the city. Not everybody wants to go to city, i certainly don't - Luckily the Pt Chev one is still there but for how long, Better start using it or it will. Its going to be hard to do cash banking if no where to take it without a big effort.. Be interesting to see how everybody else is feeling out there ? I know a lot of bills are on line now but where's the close customer service.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
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)
