bad interface making neighbourly hard to use

Bob from Spotswood

I google plumber + new Plymouth - found a link to this site, chose a tradie, great job, hence promised to give feedback but Neighbourly asks me to sign in, then "disappears" the guy after I'm logged in.. what the actual???
* strike 1
then try to create feedback as a recommendation for a "new tradie" but the site gives me the serious runaround
* strike 2
then have to spend another 10 minutes finding how to post due to the less than sub par lackluster site layout.
* strike 3 - If Neighbourly doesn't improve it's site, it's not going to be about much longer. It's making itself redundant & I take no joy in saying that. :(

Poll: Have you felt the impact of electricity price increases?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Last year, the Commerce Commission announced it had agreed to increase revenue limits to facilitate the maintenance and improvement of the electricity network.

Consumer NZ have revealed their latest annual energy survey, and found that 11% of consumers have had to cut back on their heating, and 20% of people have been struggling to pay their power bill in the past year.

Poll: Is AI rewiring our minds?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Artificial intelligence programs such as ChatGPT are here to stay - the question now is, how will they shape the future? Will the use of AI to complete daily tasks, particularly school work, impact cognitive abilities and creativity?

Recent work out of a MIT Media Lab suggests that people who used ChatGPT have lower brain engagement than those who did not when writing their essays. While the MIT Media Lab work has driven headlines recently, others have been quick to remind us that the fear of technology is nothing new.

We want to know: Is AI an addition to the technological toolbox, or should we be having bigger conversations about the impact of AI technology?
