Transmission, Generation and Distribution tariffs
Since DA has taken over Ekurhuleni, electricity increase has gone very crazy.
I'm a pensioner receiving R2100 every month and white people still remain very rich and increase will never affect them at all. As a black person I don't see democracy just suffering over and over again and it's not fair. We try to pay what's due but enough is enough. I'm not the only person experiencing this very high rise in electricity.

The Application
The economy can't afford this type of increase. People doesn't have money. They will increase poverty and unemployment.

We are tired of being punished by eskom for their failure to eliminate corruption and poor financial management.

The Application
One of the mai issues, I would like to address. Big compancies, government, municipalities etc that have not paid electricity for years, continue to receive electricity. As a household if you do not pay the full amount each month your electricity is immediately after due date cut. Then you have to pay a reconnection fee.
My question is households with owes R1500 eg, more a priority than companies and institutions who owes millions of rands. This scenario is totally wrong.
Before Eskom and NERSA sort out the illegal electricity matter a moratorium should be placed on tariff increases. This is a serious matter and the people staying in rural towns is hit the hardest since no job opportunities is available of in some instances minimum wages.
Then an performance audit should be done om all the employees at Eskom. Do we really need so many employees. You wait sometimes with a query for more than an hour to talk to an operator, just to be cut off and start all over again. The website is not working and Alfred is limited with assistance. AI is the wayforward for Eskom to address queries etc.

What is the end game here?
What smoke and mirrors game are we playing now.?
Why is the public always being taken for fools?

The Application
The increase application is not practical as the economy is growing at the desired rate. Unemployment being a major concern, which means we will not be able to afford electricity in the near future.

Poor management at ESKOM for years , our government is also accountable for allowing this to happen without any serious intervention.

Have the consequences of such an increase been thought through by a panel of intelligent people? From a world class company, with reasonable tariffs, Eskom has become an inefficient electricity supplier, mismanaged by incompetency and corruption; hardly intelligent. There is no good reason why users should bail out unaccountable, irresponsible performance.

Electricity should be a basic right in this country and it shouldn't cost an arm and a leg for every citizen. Our salaries are not increasing so in proportion to that how are we to afford such a big increase?! Stop sending our coal at such cheap prices to our neighboring countries and instead provide us with electricity at reasonable prices!

How are we suppose to cope. Doesn’t make sense as we are already struggling to make ends meet. Guess we’ll have to go back to paraffin stoves and candles etc.

So many people and company's got solar and they still can't provide affordable electricity. We are pensioners and can't afford it now, and with an increase we won't be able to buy what we need in electricity!! They are in this mess because of miss management and corruption, now they want to punish the consumer!! What of the really poor people of this country!!! They must cut the enormous salary's they are getting and plow that money back into Eskom!!!!!

Eskom has lost the right to be the sole supplier of power to South Africans who are sick and tired of all their endless shenanigans and holding the country to ransom. Get out of the way and allow private generation and sale of Power.

Ons leef alreeds minimaal met inkomste as pensionarisse. Daar is geen manier wat ons soveel ekstra per maand kan betaal aan Eskom nie. Ons betaal alreeds deur ons nekke wat belasting en stygende lewensonkostes aanbetref.
Daar is geen manier dat die middel en laer inkomsteklas hierdie styging sal kan bekostig nie. Weereens gaan armoede nog toeneem, wat dink Nersa en Eskom gaan van ons word wat dit nie kan bekostig nie????!!!!
