Residents called to pay as Tshwane switches off defaulters

“The City will be hosting activations on revenue customer education outreach programme throughout the seven regions for the next seven weeks to assist customers with accounts queries.”

The Tshwane metro has encouraged residents to continue paying their municipal accounts as it resumed its first phase to recoup more than R17-billion owed to it in rates and taxes.

On Monday, the metro started disconnecting conventional meters and blocking pre-paid meters of residents in arrears.

“We also appeal to customers who cannot pay their accounts in full to visit our customer care walk-in centres to make payment arrangements or to send payment arrangement request to creditcontrol@tshwane.gov.za,” said metro spokesperson Selby Bokaba.

“The city will be hosting activations on revenue customer education outreach programme throughout the seven regions for the next seven weeks to assist customers with account queries.”

Communication on the venues and times for activations would be announced through the office of the speaker in due course.

Customers were encouraged to make payments by visiting www.tshwane.gov.za and click on the “E-Tshwane” tab.

Alternatively residents could pay at any of the city’s Easy Pay outlets, such as PnP, Shoprite, Checkers, Spar or any of the four big banks.
