I can see many obvious benefits in decentralising WINZ call centre and case management functions to local community groups, at the same level of funding. So why do we still need WINZ offices at all?
Because if we didn't have them, the benefit system would go the same way as the mental health […]
What's up #WINZ at the moment??
They aren't answering calls like at all. Been trying for 4 days so far.

The beginning of a pencil sketch that’s supposed to be a big cookie with a face on it.
The wait makes me so delulu that I start drawing home-made Hokey Pokey biscuits with faces… 🤷🏻♀️

Also, I just worked out one of the ways National is getting Jobseeker Beneficiary numbers down. I’ll share about it soon. 👍 #msd #nzpol #winz
Chris Carpenter winning Cy Young with an ERA a whole run higher than Roger Clemens , 1.87 to 2.83
I think the answer (even despite the lol 2016 Porcello win) has to be pre-Felix. But we’re still not more than two decades removed from Roger Clemens losing out to a guy with an ERA a *full run higher* because #winz
$205 for three days of holiday programme across 2 weeks in the next School Holidays.
WINZ won’t contribute because I don’t currently work. But as someone with a disability, I cannot physically care for my son for 2 whole weeks, by myself, with absolutely no respite.

I'm so sick of the WINZ call centre putting me on hold, often for an hour or more. When they have the technology to automate a callback, when a staff member is ready to speak to me.
It's especially irritating when the reception bot asks me if I want a callback, and I say "yes" and it puts me on […]
Appealing (appauling) WINZ decisions?

If anybody sees this and they're on a NZ benefit or student allowance and wondering why they haven't been paid yet the issue is apparently on the #WINZ end and not the fault of your bank it at least according to co-op bank (no word from any other bank or WINZ) if we're lucky the payment should […]

The Packers will at best have the third best roster and by far the worst coach in their own division.
Luckily they play the third place schedule so LaFleur will get his #winz and get another playoff participation trophy and two more years of zero accountability.

Trying to do her best almost cost woman her home after #WINZ failed to pay rent to landlord or give her information to pay directly. She shouldn't be penalized, WINZ should pay the rent arrears it caused! #nzpol

Saw GP today to renew SLP Medical Work Certificate.
- It can only be sent in to WINZ 2 weeks before it's due.
- It has to be renewed every 2 years despite my conditions being permanent or no improvement under long term therapy.
It sucks, it's shitty and it should change.
