Credit card almost scam
Hi everyone, I am posting this so that you can also be aware of an almost identity theft which I was an almost victim, a couple of weeks ago I received a credit card from Gem Visa, of which I did not request, on phoning them, they had my full name - my middle name is very unusual, Gem had some of my information, full name, address, they also had listed under my information was apparently (licence number, pay slip, and an email address with my name in it, but not my email address) The New Plymouth Police have been wonderful, and are tracking the email address which was on the original application, the Police said its possible someone was watching my mailbox, I was lucky I got to my mail first, so managed to stop this scam, Please be watchful.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
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.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
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?
