Public opinion wanted-what's wrong with Wellington's buses?

Neighbourly.co.nz

It is almost a year since changes to Wellington city's bus transport network - the regional council is consulting with the public to try and fix it.

The council and Metlink are launching an online forum on Friday, along with public meetings and drop-in sessions for people to voice their opinions and come up with solutions.

Please see the key dates for locations, and if you are unsure which area your suburb sits, there is a map in the FAQ. The first survey to open will be for the Eastern suburbs at 7pm Friday 12 July. Find out more here

Scamwatch: How to recognise, avoid and act against scams.

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

A scam or a fraud is any scheme designed to con you out of money or steal your personal information. If someone contacts you unexpectedly – whether over the phone, through the post, by email, on a website, in person or on social media – always consider the possibility that it may be a scam.

Scammers target lots of people, often for small amounts of money. They constantly evolve their approach making scams harder to spot. Most scams come from overseas, but they may pretend to be locally based — from a reputable company, bank, or government agency, or even from your friends on social media if your account has been hacked. It is very difficult to get your money back once it is sent overseas.

Scams hurt us all. You can protect yourself and others by learning how to spot scams, share what you see and report them.
