WATER LEAKING MISINFORMATION

Michael from Trentham

The story is out, hot off the press that Upper Hutt water leaks are taking only a max of 21days to fix.
Good job Wellington Water and UH City Council. Yeah, right.

Less than a few months ago a leak in busy Ward Street took almost 4 months to fix during that time thousands had to step over or wade through the 24/7 water wastage. Around the same time other people in UH reported the 2-3 months delays in public water leaks being attended to and one person spoke of six months gap between first report and repairs.

At the very least there could be some honesty.
One does hope that there are plans to put into action for a few days gap only between leak spotting and leak fixing.

Marketplace Has Its Deplorables

Michael from Trentham

Have had a fair share of trouble selling items through Marketplace in recent months.

Have had the scammers, and "buyers" who have change their minds on going through with the purchase after all arrangements made, but not advising of such.

But just yesterday a guy took out the award for the best try.

Got a 2008 Forester SUV for sale at just over $9000.

This would be purchaser wanted to pay me weekly for the vehicle.

Yeah, right.

If the vehicle was for under $3000 there might be an element of sensibility. I suppose when one is short of cash aiming high provides some kind of relief mechanism.

The Subaru Forester with a low mileage of 148000km, a tow bar, many features and in good to great condition all round is still available.
