I'm signing because I'm unhappy at the
Number of power outages we experience, it takes some times 12 hours, for power to be re instated

Apart from obvious inconvenience and damage to electrical equipment there is a huge danger, fire, explosion etc.when an excessive high voltage is fed into the domestic 220v supply, more so if the homeowner is not at home during this occurance and an immediate alarm cannot be raised.

Service delivery is shocking, but there are no discounts or rebate on zero electricity. Council is very eager to take the money. Step up or let someone that can take your place.

I am signing because I am responsible for providing jobs to good people that will lose their jobs if I don't at least try to demand what is considered to be a basic service from the incompenent people in the municipality that are clueless of their responsibility to the residents. Yet, they are getting paid a rather luxurious amount for doing absolutely nothing in return.
Can we do a civil claim against them to recoup our losses like wages?

I'm Signing because my company forces me to work from home and when the power goes out there is no way I can do my work.

im signing because i work in norton small farms for a company were there electricity is off all the time due to poor maintenance, and its risking my job as the company cannot make turn over.
can we claim our salary and wages from the municipality, should we loose our jobs due to incompetence of our municipal leaders in charge of the basic energy supply.

We are rate and tax payers and we pay our water and lights account every month with hundreds of other paying residents and businesses. There are a lot of individuals in the townships who don't pay anything, but they enjoy the benefits.

Absolutely rediculous hiw the service levels of power outages have gone down... 4th week now and same issues just in parts of Germiston. Clearly says alot about technicians and workers who don't necessarily know what is to be done and just don't bother to do anything about it to resolve it. So we just stay in the dark and lose salary due to hours being affected and precious time! This must be attended to URGENTLY!!!

Jolene Pires (Germiston, 2021-01-27)

#275

Nothing is being done to resolve the issue of basic service delivery ( or lack there of)! 7 major power outages over the last 2-3 weeks without any answers. We have suffered major Financial and psychological impact personally and to our business!

Having continuous electricity outages is disruptive to business and has a negative effect on appliances. It is also a constitutional right to have electricity and have a service that actually works.

Gunter Stocker (Germiston, 2021-01-27)

We have had numerous outages for the past few weeks, we have lost a few items to power surge last year and this year again. We are having trouble claiming from the insurance and are waiting weeks for feedback from them..before we have even listed the items that got damaged the power surge comes. This is also affecting our business as we can't operate without Wi-Fi. We are getting fed up with this now as it happens every week now!!!

Rene Groenewald (Albemarle Germiston, 2021-01-27)

#304

The service delivery in this area is appauling to say the least. We have endless issues with power supply. Vandalism as well as the unplanned outages affect our appliances. This leads to total failure of our appliances due to either non maintenance or poor planning. We are more without power than any other area in this metropolitan and we as the residents are sick and tired of paying for poor service delivery.

Natasha Jacobs (Albemarle, 2021-01-27)

I'm tired of not having lights during my business hours as I loose clients and go to other competitors. Tired of loosing money on wasted food as the lights are off for too long for the fridges. With all the loosing, I can't afford to run a generator as it becomes costly.

The constant power outages affect my electronic equipment. It is inconvenient as I work from home and need my fibre. I have to pay my paet time domestic worker even though there is nothing she can do. I feel it is unfair to have a no work no pay policy and punish an innocent person because Ekhuruleni cannot provide a stable electricity supply.

Neil Louwrens (Germiston, 2021-01-27)

We are constantly without power. I work from home due to covid.

Sonja Smith (Dinwiddie, 2021-01-27)

#359

I reside in Albemarle ext 1 and am concerned about the degraded level of electric power provisioning in the area for the past couple of months. Very disruptive to our family life and trying to work from home... not to mention the amount of rotten foods that result from fridges not operating during these weekly outages. Please hire qualified personnel or at least employ quality checks to ensure good workmanship on electric equipment.

I'm sick and tired of paying my lights and water account timously every month and the municipality can have outages after outages without giving a reason as to why we having outages.
But the mayor and his department have Never said that they will not take a salary until they have fixed all the issues that we have.
Why do you actually get paid?
