overseas and other unwanted cellphone calls

Tracey from Parklands - Marshlands

We have received several overseas calls that indicate they are from (Australia) when we answered one of these call a male speaking with a heavy ethnic dialogue of that possibility from the Phillipines tried to sell something. Would not take NO for an answer.

We have started blocking these calls.

If in doubt don’t answer if it is important they will leave a number you should google any messages to see if the company and contact details are legitimate if not suggest you block these calls.

Never call back as there is a charge associated with this.

Any calls you get from your service providers you have not initiated yourself HANG UP.

Contact any company directly and discuss what took place.

We turn our land line volume off and use answering machine to check legitimate messages.

We hope you find this information useful.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
