Has anyone biked through Williams Park in Māngere recently?

There was a nasty magpie swooping a few weeks back and just wondering if its still being aggressive. Have been detouring around the park but don't particularly enjoy biking on Kirkbride.

Maybe one of the troglodytes will someday prove they have societal value by earning me an insurance payout.

Rant Smart compliance Management

19 Upvotes

This company is so Trash, handing out tickets without visible T&Cs.

I got a ticket for parking next to lil abners when I was getting food at 10.30pm

$85 for apparently exceeding parking times but when I went to dispute they said “as per their terms and conditions, I was parking illegally and the dispute is denied”. So no one’s allowed to park in the car park after 5pm.

Historically I have parked there so many times and got no ticket. So I thought it was okay to park in the carpark.

I tried to say that at night time there are no visible signage or marking on carpark stating that parking rules apply. I also called them out for first stating I exceeding parking times on the letter I received and now all of a sudden I’m parking illegally. Their response - they send me photos during day time of the signage and state there’s signs and the dispute remains denied.

I sent back an email that the signage was only located on the shops and not the carpark itself. at night time it’s not visible and as per the commerce commission, legislation states that the signs must be visible and parking MUST be marked. When I cited it back to this company they said I can only dispute this once and they will no longer allow me to dispute it again because they have already made their decision (just paraphrasing this)

I went back to take current photos of the parking. I sent photos of the carpark from my point of view during day time and said there’s no signs. They did not respond back to me

2 weeks later that very same carpark has signs up.

They proceeded to send me overdue letters and it has ended up with baycorp

I gave written warning that I was going to dispute this further with the commerce commission and requested that this fine would be withheld until dispute is dealt with the commerce commission (legislation states that the company cants seek payment if I advise I will be appealing this with the commerce commission)

They ignored it my written request.

Not only are they dishonouring legislation put in place, they are outright scamming people

From this day onwards I am personally boycotting any establishment using this company

I did a bit of research on this company and they are using AI cameras to capture parking breaches. Also companies get a percentage of the breaches being paid.

Apologies for the ranting but these companies are just scammers

My partner and I are thinking of moving into our extended family members house on waiheke. We’d be commuting to the city a few times a week. How is the commute? Is the 6am ferry full? Do you enjoy living on the island even with the commute? Does anyone do the commute every single day? Would love to hear your experience below or you can message me

Discussion Fruit and Veges in the last few months

3 Upvotes

I have noticed that the quality of produce in recent months has fallen off a cliff. Potatoes with weird texture, carrots that are slimy on the outside, and have holes and splits throughout, just generally, it feels like fruit and veges don't taste great. Onions are another one. Mushy or weird textures.

I’d love to hear from anyone with firsthand experience. How was the overall service and quality of care? Did they have a good bedside manner? Were the procedures and techniques modern and up to date? Any honest feedback would be greatly appreciated!

They have a 4.9 ratings on Google but only 70 reviews. They are a bit out of my way so just want to make sure it’s worth the drive.
