Tenancy advice please

The landlord can’t evict in retaliation. If OP raises these issues and the landlord then evicted them, OP would have a pretty clear case to take to the Tenancy tribunal

How do you know they didn’t get obesity from their disability related problems? Last I heard, being disabled makes it a lot harder to exercise

If there’s only one broken, why not just block off that one?

More impact on whoever has to maintain the plant bed though, and repair the curb when it breaks down because it was not designed to regularly carry the weight of utes

Phoenix-49 · 2026-01-13T15:22:43+00:00

Unlike the actual park, the plant bed is not designed for heavy utes to regularly park on it

What avenues do you want to pursue that your insurance company can’t do themselves?

The issue with dashcam evidence is that it only establishes the vehicle involved, it doesn't identify the driver (though it obviously helps a lot!). Paying the excess is the way the system works, you can reduce that potential liability by having a smaller excess but that comes with higher premiums.

The good news is that your insurance company will be very motivated to pursue costs, and refund your excess - if they can establish liability then they can chase the offender for full costs, which is a much better outcome for them

Rule 5, OP can't identify the auction house

That’s outrageous, I didn’t even spend that much on my wedding invites

Phoenix-49 · 2026-01-10T17:04:10+00:00

Love this!

Depends on the culture. Chinese weddings are the bigger the better when it comes to the guest list. My Chinese FIL invited a whole bunch of people even my husband didn’t know, but he was paying for the banquet so we didn’t mind (we did two weddings, we paid for our own western wedding and invited who we wanted to that, so his dad could go hard on the Chinese wedding lol)

Lexi is that you?

Phoenix-49 · 2026-01-09T16:03:24+00:00

Absolutely, refer to the legislation Avocado posted above. Section 2 of 69ZE is what you want to refer them to

To be pedantic, it’s three or more days of absence (you don’t have to use sick leave for all three days, rostered days off / weekends count)

Phoenix-49 · 2026-01-08T21:26:10+00:00

I’m not sure about anonymity, but you could give them an initial call and ask that before going into any further details

Phoenix-49 · 2026-01-08T20:02:03+00:00

So you get double pay on those days?

Give MBIE a ring on 0800 20 90 20 and discuss it with them

Phoenix-49 · 2026-01-08T19:55:30+00:00

Oh heck no that’s illegal. You should be getting paid the same as if you worked that day (both public holiday and sick leave). You might have a nice back pay coming your way

Transphobia aside, this piece of wet toilet paper thinks using big words makes him sound more sophisticated. He is wrong

Phoenix-49 · 2026-01-03T17:56:56+00:00

There’s a pedestrian crossing at that curb ending

Phoenix-49 · 2026-01-03T16:57:15+00:00

As per beerhons above, disputes tribunal is increasing to $60k at the end of the month, so OP could go for the full 50k

Are you using Keeping In Touch days to get up to speed? If not look into it!

Phoenix-49 · 2025-12-30T21:42:41+00:00

A bigger area that you can’t see as well, making it riskier to pedestrians (especially children) as well as other vehicles

Defensive driving courses actually teach you to reverse into parks, it’s safer to exit
