They will be attending Silverdale School. As the tutor for NZIIU I need to find homestay families. They are double placement and we require 2 families that could take girls, as bed each is required, can be in same room. Their ages are 10 and 11yrs. If over my area I am happy to transport them to and from the school. Good remuneration is paid. Can any family help? Thanks Pamela

Job not up to scratch?

If you have problems with services or products, you may be protected by the CGA. You should expect services to be carried out with appropriate competency and skills, and completed to a reasonable standard.

For example, Jan had two painters provide quotes for some painting and wallpaper work. She chose her painter and the work was completed. Two weeks later she noticed bumps and lumps in the wallpaper, that she hadn’t noticed at the time the bill was paid.

With a faulty product, you can return it and ask for a repair, replacement or refund. But that’s not so easy with a service! But Jan’s story ended well, the painter came back and rectified the problem at no cost to Jan.
