Not endless committees and due process and RFIs and RFPs and Consultation and competency checks and slow moving alliances and ROIs and due diligence and ratifying judge panels and more consultation and endless posterior covering !
Tall poppies don't grow in New Zealand but Christchurch is in desperate need of a few !
Hilarious and yet so sad at the same time. My house is unlivable and I'm in the White Zone with no timeline for anything. This morning my insurance company said (and I quote) "We'll put your claim on file, as your house is red sticked and you're in the white zone, we don't have to do anything yet"!!! Gotta keep smiling...
@ak47popper Sympathy? From Youtube comments, now that's funny! I'm just highlighting that this video, although funny, is also scarily close to the truth for many people in Christchurch. You're clearly not from Christchurch or you'd understand LOL!
@IHBBabe Funny thing is I am from Christchurch, and have been here for every earthquake. Nice way to generalise. Just because you moap around hoping for someone to care doesn't mean we all do. We've had our time in the light
@ak47popper , as you're from Chch, I do apologise for the generalisation. But, your comments highlight a mean spirit and ignorance I've not come across since the start of the eathquakes so I assumed you were not from here. This was a fun video making light of a bad situation, let me mope in peace waiting for someone to care... LOL!
Rant Two: Great parody/satire. Now if we were living in the Fatherland in the 1930's we would've spread a rumour about the great numbers of Jews, criminals, homosexuals, mental-defectives living in the Red Zone, then the Great Navigator would have bulldozed the whole kaboodle into the estuary. Done 'n' dusted!
I do love to hear about Kiwi ingenuity and resilience, then measure up the present behaviour, and compare it to the average Jose living in the slums of Bogota, La Paz, or Sao Paulo.
Hello whining scum. Ooops - I was really getting into the monologue.
Hello fellow ChCh citizens. Anonymous people say that there is an element of fraud (a crime punishable by imprisonment) in 70% of their normal insurance claims.
Recently I have not met a person who hasn't mentioned how they will fraudulently BENEFIT from their claims to EQC or insurer. That's morally repugnant. So care must be taken with MY money, as I too am a (non-claiming) policy-holder, and my premiums will rise by 25%. Ugh
This is brilliant the best thing I have seen in years, thank you for putting it together....wow who are you guys thanks - people need to stay in humour, in good heart space in feel good feelings - only then will changes happen...wow!!
My place - deck, fence and steps sliding down the hill - inspected, positive words uttered several weeks ago and we are still waiting for the OK to rectify. And we are not even in Christchurch.
I would love to get my EQC claim settled. Im out of pocket $2000 for emergency repairs, Prescription Glasses that were stuck in the Red Zone, not to mention cant afford to replace my iPod that got wet in a building that the sprinklers went off in, my 50" plasma that smashed on the lounge floor, or replace my 3 business suit jackets that were left in the office that's still in the red zone, now assumed fu)ked due to the sprinkler thing. EQC need more workers and less red tape!..
@mareehf Does it really matter if they know where it is or not? EQC cover NZ not just CHCH and not just earthquakes either, they cover storms,floods,landslips pretty much all natural disasters, they also have call centres in brisbane australia who wouldnt know lyttelton, new brighton or anywhere in CHCH so stop being a prick.
well you gotta see it from EQC's point of view, a lot of people down there are creating fake claims so they can get some new shit, thats why the process takes so damn long, i mean you can live without a tv for a while, just be glad you aint like Japan and have a friggin tsunami go through and total the whole city.
@brownpooz 1) If you don't have proof of "a lot of people down there are creating fake claims so they can get some new shit" then you've just basically slandered all of Chch. Good one mate! 2) The difference being that in Japan they are only a month or so out and have made MASSIVE steps towards rebuilding and clean up, all while dealing with a nuclear meltdown.
Our insurance companies will expect their accounts paid by us still wont they, in fact most of us have been paying the farking EQC for years and years..and when its time for a little payback look what these c**ts do!
thanks for recognizing that its not our fault in call centers. Cool clip
