We have a prepaid electricity meter. I live in the Birchleigh area.
Every month, it actually varies, from the 25th to the 29th of each month, we get a final notice that our account hasn’t been paid yet!.
I don’t care if they invoice me on the 2nd or whatever day of the month they want to, we don’t get paid on the 15th of each month to pay them. My husband gets paid on the 27th of each month and either on that day or a day later we pay our account.
And because they don’t give us time until the end of the month, they slap the R80 + on our account for the final notice they have sent out. My account is never behind and gets paid every month.
Do they get a kick out of “stealing” my money every month? Why don’t they give more attention to the people that don’t pay instead of making more money out of us that do pay.
Don’t know if any other residents have the same problem. Anyway, what are they going to do? Cut my water?
