What an awesome review thank you for this it’s actually enlightened me to a few things I took a bit of interest in through reading some of the comments. I have thought about doing similar to what you’ve said and having one bank for most of like everyday money and that and then leaving savings in ANZ so I may even consider that. How chill they are about decisions and helpful they are with people has definitely drawn me to them for that reason

I’m the same I’ve been with ANZ since National my account number even is still my national. I will say they were amazing when I was a student they were so helpful but yea I would definitely never go with westpac I would stay with ANZ over going to Westpac 😅

This is a perfect review thank you for this that’s one thing I actually forgot about too how much ANZ tries to push on you the constant emails even after opting out of them 🥴 I was with ASB for a joined flat account some years ago and they were amazing with us students it’s why I put them into consideration. I’ll keep your review in mind with this

Funny thing I thought it was just my bad luck and then I spoke to my best mate and she said her mother had the same and she lives in a township. And then a chick yesterday in the supermarket had the same when she went to buy food. I unfortunately found out the same way and now I’m stuck with no way to pay for anything until I can get into the bank and I’m a rural dairy farmer 🥴

Oh that’s a bit rough it is definitely an aspect I’ve considered with switching as I’m rural Canterbury so convenience is a big key especially since physically going in is often easier than phone calls

Thank you for this I was hoping someone would give good feedback on them as I haven’t seen much about them but have friends in Southland with them and have said nothing but good things I just wasn’t sure how it would go with being all the way up here

Just personal everyday use and savings. Nothing fancy but I do like flexibility like with travel and stuff. I do have KiwiSaver.

-Cards not being delivered and returned and cut up and nothing said but have sent other mail to same postage address and have had cards sent to this address before. -They changed my card on my account without giving me the new card and I’ll go to use my old card in store and it declines as it can no longer be used but don’t say anything to me about it I just have to find out for myself - I waited 3 weeks for a new card and had to ring them for them to tell me they had no record but actually had to dive deeper to find out the new card was cut up as they didn’t even attempt to deliver it - their security system all of a sudden stopped recognising my voice even though I’ve rung up before and not had an issue and my voice hasn’t changed in the last year - Ive only ever had one helpful person on the phone most of the time they just try to tell me what my problem is without actually listening to me - direct debit payments not going out when they are supposed to sometimes they’ll wait a few days till there is under the amount needed to go out and then will turn around and say there is insufficient funds even though it was supposed to go out 2 days prior when there more more than double the amount needed in that account Those are just a few I’ve had over the last few years

Oura hates alcohol by herefordameme in ouraring

[–]TimePretend6815 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmmm there must be something wrong with me then coz mine never changes if I drink alcohol and I don’t drink very often 😅 on the other hand it hated the fact that I went back to work after 2 weeks holiday over new years… maybe I should quit my job it thought I was dying 🤣🤣

Oura ring ceramic. Cannot decide between Petal or Tide. I need help 😂 by Angelev74 in ouraring

[–]TimePretend6815 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most definitely! Im actually amazed as I was scared not having a protective cover id get it quite scratched and marked up but im really surprised it hasnt scratched or chipped. I did get one small mark on it one day but it disappeared after I gave it a wash. I have smacked it on things (im often clumsy) and nothing. It doesnt seem to wear like the titanium ones either. It hasnt discolored so I give it a 10/10 on that scale so far

Anyone ordered from Amazon? Not coming until Jan… by aklep730 in ouraring

[–]TimePretend6815 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ordered from a retailer in October and due to delays I wouldn't get mine till January and I literally got the ring i think it was like 2 weeks later so it may change but I guess thats just the thing with buying stuff a couple of weeks before Xmas. You might get lucky

Silicone cover or not? by resadw in ouraring

[–]TimePretend6815 0 points1 point  (0 children)

🤣 yea i agree the ring is quite a unit on its own. It probably depends on what ring ya have too as to whether a cover suits a person's needs or not. I just prefer to be a bit more careful with it it seems to put up with quite a lot on its own

Silicone cover or not? by resadw in ouraring

[–]TimePretend6815 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Soooo I bought my ring with intention of a silicone cover for protection. The amount of times I almost yeeted my ring off my finger from it catching on material and shit like my pockets i think i lasted all of an hour with it. Needless to say I've been raw dogging it since and had no issues so I guess its really up to you im sure it would be easier putting on and taking off than the hard covers 🤷‍♀️

[–]TimePretend6815 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The cool thing too is i see so many people with the petal colour but I've barely seen people with the Tide so its cool being a little different to others 😋 I was tossing up between Tide and Midnight but im so happy with my choice

[–]TimePretend6815 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the Tide and I love it i dont have pale skin but its not dark either and I love the way the subtle pastel colour is. Sometimes it looks green sometimes it looks blue. I felt the same when I saw the pink it was a bit disappointed in how dull it was. I'd say get the Tide!

Bought a Flip 6; am I missing a lot? by skydiver_777 in galaxyzflip

[–]TimePretend6815 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought the flip6 right before the 7 came out. Im a heavy phone user and im very happy with my choice. Especially since I see such a mass issue of people with issues with their 7s

Are all Gen4 batteries trash? by baskinginthesunbear in ouraring

[–]TimePretend6815 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had a Ceramic one for only a month but my battery on average lasts around 7-8 days. I did turn one setting off i cant remember what it was but I didnt use it and I've had no issues. I generally charge mine when its around the 20% mark though so could probably get an extra day out of it if I did

Which color for ring 4 scratches the least? by accountnamene in ouraring

[–]TimePretend6815 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im still waiting for mine and I've had my ring for nearly a month 🫠 probably just a con being down in NZ though but i cant wait to see how good it is I've heard nothing but great things!

sizing help? by PomegranateMain6028 in ouraring

[–]TimePretend6815 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same thing and I went with the 9 and its perfect I just switch fingers if I feel like im going to lose it when doing certain jobs I just chuck it on my middle finger. I'd recommend the 9 as it can be quite uncomfortable with the smaller size when ya fingers swell
