SASSA payments will go ahead today as planned

All SASSA cash paypoints will be open today (Monday).

SASSA said an incorrect statement to the effect that social grant beneficiaries using paypoints would only be paid on May 11 instead of May 6 was circulated last week.

To correct this, SASSA wishes to inform beneficiaries who were originally scheduled for May 6 that the date has not changed.

All SASSA cash paypoints scheduled for May 6 will be opened and beneficiaries will be able to collect their grants on that day. Beneficiaries will also be able to collect their grants from shops, ATMs and all post offices nationally will be open for grant payments.

SASSA wishes to apologise for last week’s miscommunication. Beneficiaries can call the toll free line 0800 60 10 11 for further enquiries.
