Vehicle Repairs
I was contacted by text message by a Mike Hughes who is on here here who said he was from A1 Auto repairs. He said he would fix my car and I was given a bank act number with his name and the name of the business as a reference. He told me he would be driving a white and red Auto repairs ute. I transferred what to me is a large sum of money but is not large by most peoples standards and have not heard ant more from him. He asked for the money to be paid so he knew that the cost of the part had been paid. This job was supposed to have been done today. The money won't be banked into his act until Tuesday but it has already been taken from my act by the bank I have looked up the business and there does not seem to be a branch in Hamilton, There is an A1 Automotovive in Auckland but I don't know if they are the same business.
Does anyone have any ideas on this as I feel i have been scammed out of my money and now cannot get my car fixed.
If anyone knows if this is a legitimate business could they please message me on 0297709474
Where do you think sells the best sausages?
Through all the tumult of existence, one thing remains unchanged - the makings of a good sausage.
Frankton Butchery owner Jim Ashton reckons people are looking for something reliable and they find it at his Commerce St store, whether its 15kg-worth or a single snarler.
What do you think of this new housing option?
A program to move people out of rentals and give them a sense of security with housing has been launched in Te Awamutu.
Twenty new two bedroom townhouses on Ohaupo Rd are available to buy at $291,750 - less than half the market price.
The catch is - you don’t own the land but hold a 100-year lease.
Hamilton City Council - more overspending
The current council and its elected councillors are deteriorating in their performance. The recent planned $700k debacle to relocate a bus stop in Anglesea St, which fortunately will not be proceeding, the costly Glenview bus stop issue to rectify, and now the proposed rate increase highlight mismanagement. Using the rates' calculator, our personal rates will surge by $517 next year, followed by $484 the subsequent year, and an additional $558 the third year, totalling a staggering $1,559 increase over three years. This burden falls heavily, especially on pensioners, and there's no guarantee that future councils won't impose further hikes.
Therefore, it's appalling to learn that our Mayor plans to attend ANZAC commemorations in Ypres, Belgium, this year. Couldn't a Zoom meeting suffice? This isn't a fact-finding mission to improve fiscal responsibility or address ratepayer concerns. It's an unnecessary expense. Will she travel economy class, or indulge in premium economy or business class comforts? Is she alone, or is there an entourage? It's us, the ratepayers, funding this European trip, while we're being told to reduce our carbon footprint by walking or biking, and roads are becoming increasingly difficult to navigate. If this trip is so imperative, shouldn't she cover the expenses herself?
I deeply regret supporting this council in the last elections. As the next elections approach (believed to be next year). Let's hope for fresh faces around the table and some common-sense.
Submissions for the local plan close on April 21st, and completion is critical. We need to ensure our voices are heard loud and clear. It has never been more crucial!
