Rejection : City Power Electricity Service Fee ( Gauteng Province)

Comments

#7605

Because we pay for a service that we don't get. Just because there is load shedding for just over 100 days, this does not make this right.

Alistair Cronk (Johannesburg, 2024-07-12)

Cost of living is too high, we cannot even afford basic needs

Electricity is already expensive as, why do we have to pay for illegal connections.

Nyasha Muchira (Honeydew, Johannesburg, 2024-07-12)

Tge prepaid system gives the piwer suppliwrs money up front, sometimes months in advance. The prepaid system avoids the authorities bad debts which attract collection costs. Besides this many poor households are already financially strangled & cant even put sufficient food on the table foe their families.64v

Affordability is already high and including rent

The R200 service fee is ridiculous with the tarrif increase. How do you justify 300 units for R1000

Neil Hendricks (Johannesburg, 2024-07-12)

#7619

I don't agree with the 200 fee

Thandi Khara (Johannesburg, 2024-07-12)

#7622

It's disgraceful we paying for bad management.

Cheryl Jardine (Roodepoort, 2024-07-12)

#7627

The units have decreased already... I won't afford R200 network fee while I can't afford R200 electricity

Sinah Makwa (Midrand, 2024-07-12)

#7628

I reject the implementation of the R200 prepaid electricity surcharge

Rethabile Malibeng (Johannesburg, 2024-07-12)

#7631

I use two prepaid meters and got solar lighting solar geyser gas stove through the unreliable Citypower electricity supply So why punish me for using electricity sparingly only fridge and tv is on grid so they should thank me as a pensioner

Cyril McCarthy (Joburg, 2024-07-12)

#7635

This fee is ridiculous and a rip off especially in this economy.

Hombile Ngobozana (Roodepoort, 2024-07-12)

#7636

I am signing because I am not being able to afford this electricity as I am a single parent and also that the increase in the electricity is making it impossible for the middle earners to survive. We barely manage as it is. So now it has to be the most basic need like electricity. It is hard to survive. And also I thought that the charges of this nature are already included on the VAT. as it has also increased, so bad. Athi why is government try to recover the moneys from people who didn't use the state money. Some of us didn't even get RDP houses. We don't even get grand. We have to buy everything in oder to have something. Now the increase of electricity, this surcharge and the increase in VAT are all unnecessary.

Matsie Mofokeng (Johannesburg, 2024-07-12)

#7637

I do not approve of the additional R200 to the prepaid tariff that I've been paying without defaulting. I feel it's a day light robbery by the Municipality to Las abiding residents. They should rather recover their loss from people who are not paying for electricity

Eric Nemalumane (Johannesburg, 2024-07-12)

#7639

Im signing because Im a widow nd I earn less than 6k per mnt everything is expensive for me

Nomalanga Dhlamini (Gauteng, 2024-07-13)

#7641

I'm sick and tired of our government putting a blind eye to our suffering as people of SA ,salaries stays the same but everything goes up.So many people have lost their jobs adding to a high number of unemployment rate meaning most of the households are not doing well financially

Tshilidzi Mashau (Alberton (l, 2024-07-13)

#7642

I'm signing this because am not happy with the increase. We are already paying 12%, then on top of that we have to pay R200 every month. That is too much for us. We don't afford.I wonder if are we being punishing to be loyal citizens, because we are buying electricity unlike those who don't buy@all but still they enjoying as they always have power and never experienced load shedding nor outage. That's is not fair to SA citizens. Everything it's expensive, we are taxed for everything. We now live hand to mouth and it so painful.

Boineelo Khosi (Gauteng, 2024-07-13)

#7643

I'm signing because tariffs are already high as I thought network maintenance is already included.

Neil Albertus (Roodepoort, 2024-07-13)

#7644

I was not given a choice on this and we are paying high rate per kilowatt due to governments corruption.

Vinesh Mistry (Johannesburg, 2024-07-13)

#7646

I agree with this petition and I am very concerned about the affordability of Municipal services. What will happen to me and my family and all the other people who cannot afford to pay the demanded fee?

Deliana Labuschagne (Randburg, 2024-07-13)

#7651

The mandatory 200 not to be imposed on consumers

Kgomotso Chauke (Fourways, 2024-07-13)

#7652

I am signing because I can't afford the increased as I don't earn enough money to sustain my basic needs.

Nozibusiso Ngubane (Johannesburg, 2024-07-13)

#7653

I’m tired and frustrated by how city power has been forcefully robbing us on these electricity tariffs, the fees added are unbearable and the cost of living is too high and yet they keep hiking electricity tariffs with pooor service provision

Nkosilathi Mafusini (Johannesburg, 2024-07-13)

#7657

I do not support these increase and the service fees

Potso Mpandawana (Randburg, 2024-07-13)

#7658

I'm signing this because electricity is too high as it is. We can barely afford it.

Nobuhle Ngubane (Johannesburg, 2024-07-13)

#7659

I'm signing because the tarrifs are way to high. How can you get 289kWh of electricity from R1000 that's daylight robbery and uncalled for. The streets where I live still have potholes but the tarrifs are ridiculous where is that money going.

Busisiwe Shongwe (Johannesburg, 2024-07-13)

#7665

I am signing because this doesn't allow us the lower class people to survive the current economy and it's not my fault that the government is not attacking the illegal connections.

Benedictor Matlonya (Ekurhuleni, 2024-07-13)

#7666

I'm signing this because the people that provide our municipal services need to be held accountable for passing the buck onto consumers for their errors/failures. Even taking advantage of pensioners through tariffs like these proposed forcible payments is another example of a lack of accountability on the service providers end.

Kwame Phaahla (Midrand, 2024-07-13)

#7671

This country is kill us with the high prices of lights where they told us that is helping us ....

Fagmieda Richards (Robertsham, 2024-07-13)

#7672

I'm signing because I'm frustratingly highly disagree with these tariffs hikes which are so ridiculous and as a service paying resident feel that we are taken advantage of. Already it's not easy to live with everything being paid for but bearly surviving. These tariffs need to be cut down.

Mmabatho Lekgeu (Johannesburg, 2024-07-13)

#7674

The charge is too high and not justified because the city already has a margin on the power we consume

Austin Mpandawana (Randburg, 2024-07-13)

#7675

I’m signing this because I am standing for what is right.

Hannah Tanyanyiwa (Johannesburg, 2024-07-13)

#7677

There is no way we will afford to pay R200 per month plus a 12.7% increase!

Bontshitse Tladi (Johannesburg, 2024-07-14)

#7704

This is unacceptable. I cannot afford rates let alone the service.

Esterhuizen Florence (Johannesburg, 2024-07-14)

#7705

I'm signing because already we are paying a ridiculous amount of money for electricity for way too little units , adding this fee is just making things worse for us. For those who are bridging, what is going to happen to them then? And to the municipality which has not used its fund for what it was for and continued to squander money for their own benefits, what is going to happen to them? The law is too quick to punish the innocent and leave the culprits to continue benefit where they are not supposed to. Please fix your house before coming for the good citizens of the country. We do not deserve this.

Keba Seero (Johannesburg, 2024-07-14)

I AM TOTALY AGAINST NOT JUST THE EKSTRA R200 BUT ALSO THE REDICULIS INCREASE, IF THE ANC GOVERMENT DID THEIR JOB AND UPKEPT THE FACILITIES AND NOT JUMP ON THE GRAVY TRAINE WE WOULD BE PAYING LES FOR POWER AND ALSO LESS FOR WATER, NOW WE THE PEOPLE MUST PAY FOR ALL THE MISTAKES, MISUSE AND STEELING IF THE ANC GOVERNMENT. ALL THEY CAN DO IS WORK THE LAND INTO CHAOS, STEELING THE PUBLICK POOR, KILL PEOPLE IN HOSPITALS, KILL PEOPLE OUT THROUGH HIKING COSTS ON FOOD, PETROL, ELECTRICITY, WATER, LOANES, UNDERPAIMENT FOR THE HARD WORKERS ANDVOVERPAYMENT TO TOP LEVEL WORKERS AND BBBEEE, LETTING A 100000000 PEOPLE DIE AND IMPOVERICHED TO SUPORT THE FEW SOLD OUT LEADERS TO THE NWO.
