Arthur from Rangiora

Again this morning our paper was soaking wet and unreadable due to the rain. The plastic cover it totally useless. I phoned the Press but got voice prompts, no human voice to talk to, I was told to push another No for customer service but when I got there I gave up after so many " please hold, your call is important". I am convinced that customer service from Fairfax Media is a total joke. I was told yesterday that Allied Press based in Dunedin is a far better company as it is not a big conglomerate and is owned by a local. YES, that is a true comment, from my own personal experience. I have often said that the bigger the company the poorer the service.

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)
.
