So I tried to update via iTunes. No dice. So I downloaded the app. No dice and then the phone froze on the Apple support screen. Apple support said I had to take it to the store. Cost me to send it in and have it diagnosed. $70
They (Harvey Norman Wairau) reset the phone and couriered it back. And I'm now locked out and have to recover my account through Apple who via the web told me I have a wait period of 'days' or 'LONGER"
Kewl. NOT. So after a 'wait period' (in their words...1984 anyone?) which Apple assured me their call centre people can't hasten I'm given a coundown...24 hours...10 hours...3 hours...20 mins...
And THEN I'm told I have to wait until November 6th to recover my account!!! It's already been down a week and now another fortnight???
So, yes their tactics have resulted in forcing me to upgrade my old phone. But guess what. Spark are sending me out a Samsung S24.
Goodbye Apple.

There's only a few differences between our larger chain supermarkets here in New Zealand. Having someone bag your groceries is one of them.
Does having your groceries packed for you at the checkout influence where you do your grocery shop? If so, tell us why.

Here’s a few tips to help you stay safe, avoid buying stolen property, and not get taken advantage of:
💸If it is too good to be true, it probably is, or it could be stolen property.
💸If it’s being sold as new, ask for the receipt for the warranty. If they can’t provide it, that’s a red flag.
💸Check the seller’s profile, is it new or relatively blank?
💸If you make a purchase and need to meet somebody to get it, choose somewhere well-lit and well populated in public, near CCTV. If it has to be somebody’s home, take someone with you and let someone else know where you’re going and when.
💸Be especially cautious when buying power tools or high-end toy brick building block sets.
Sadly, if you unknowingly buy stolen property, you’re aiding criminals and inadvertently supporting them to steal more.
If you find a suspect listing or social media scam, call 105, or report it with us online at 105.police.govt.nz

Using your car is convenient, except for finding parking.
Cycling lets you leave anytime, but you might arrive soaked.
So, neighbours, if public transport had the perk of being free, would it be your main way to commute?
