12.72% increase is ridiculous it has to be removed period, we can not be recharging every 2days we don't have that kind of money

Letwin Phakathi (Johannesburg, 2024-07-05)

#6013

I am not happy about this electricity increase. I want to pay an affordable and reasonable amount.

Lindiwe Sangweni (Johannesburg, 2024-07-05)

#6015

1. I don't understand how did you arrive to the amount.
2. There was no consultation.
3. The amount is unreasonably high
4. I am a pensioner and cannot afford it.
5. Deal with corruption that us happening in daylight everywhere.

Protest against city power electricity service fee.

Tyrelle Grantham (Johannesburg, 2024-07-05)

#6021

This is utter nonsense due to their inability to pay their debt. No one has this ridiculous amount of money at their disposal especially at this very period of lack. If they fail at being the fair middle man, they must just let Eskom take over directly.

Gugu Ncala (Johannesburg, 2024-07-05)

#6023

The increase of a monthly service charge and increase in KW usage is unacceptable. The unemployment rate is high and citizens are struggling to keep up. Back office reversals are delayed and citizens are told to pay 10% until matters are resolved = unacceptable. City Power have a court order against them, due to non payments to Eskom. Citizens cannot be held ransom for undue increases to settle Eskom. Government officials use power and dont have to pay why should citizens have to carry the burden. The new set monthly fee of R200 should be removed with immediate effect.

Aletta Szalay (Randburg, Gauteng, 2024-07-05)

#6025

The unit price has increased and the R200 fee is just unaffordable

Ahmed B (Lenasia, 2024-07-05)

#6026

This arbitrary increase is not only unconstitutional but very disrespectful to the consumer. We must be consulted and consulted properly .

Mpho Nolepo (Johannesburh, 2024-07-05)

#6027

I'm signing because these rates are too high and we simply cannot afford them

Imraan Hassimbhai (Johannesburg, 2024-07-05)

#6032

Because that service fee is not sustainable because we already pay for power with all the fees included!!

Engela Smit (Johannesburg, 2024-07-05)

#6034

I am signing this because it is ridiculous to add additional charges to paying customers who are already struggling in this economy.
It is also unfair for this charge to only be implemented in Gauteng. Obviously it is not a necessary charge or it would have been nationwide.

Genelle Naicker (Randburg, 2024-07-05)

#6035

We are paying more than enough!!!

Debbie van der Linde (Randburg, 2024-07-05)

#6037

The cost of living keeps increasing and I cannot afford a 200 rand service charge

Mohammed Saadiq (Johannesburg, 2024-07-05)

#6038

Already electricity is too pricy currently and it's not fair that other people who are working and could afford to pay electricity, they don't, especially from townships and ppl staying at makeshift houses. Over and above honest citizens when they pass limit they get half khw not full, very unfair

Ellen Koloko (Johannesburg, 2024-07-05)

#6040

Enough is enough.
Being bullied by a bunch of uneducated, dimwitted, dishonest, unscrupulous, corrupt officials must come to an end

incompetence city of Johannesburg and city power failed to consult us the customers.we still have load reductions daily because of their failures.

#6057

This is like buying patrol and paying the attendant what ever increase in electricity part form of the network and what so ever it is called their bills the failed to pay Eskom let it not be our issue

Thifhelimbilu Nemukondeni (Johannesburg, 2024-07-05)

#6058

I'm signing because I think that the R200 is ridiculous,unnecessary and too much. Already we struggle to purchase enough electricity to take us through the month,with this R200 surchage, our lives will be even more difficult

Stanley Maluleke (JOHANNESBURG, 2024-07-05)

I do not agree with this daylight robbery

Mahomed Iqbal Ebrahim (Johannesburg, 2024-07-05)

#6065

I'm signing because to charge us that amount whilst other people are using electricity but not buying even a single unit it's unfair

Daniël Martin (Johannesburg, 2024-07-05)

#6067

The more we pay, the less we get. Now, we are being forced to cover the cost of the corruption that bankrupt the CoJ!

Angela McClelland (Johannesburg, 2024-07-05)

#6072

The service fee is not fair. Residents have a right to affordable basic service of electricity.

Mava Velaphi (Johannesburg, 2024-07-05)

Kaelip Vieira (Johannesburg, 2024-07-05)

#6095

I‘m signing because prepaid electricity is already more expensive per unit as the service charge was built into the per unit charged. If they want to charge a service fee they should drop the per unit charge

Charl Spangenberg (Johannesburg, 2024-07-05)

#6096

This is*****en insane
We are barely surviving with everyone going up and now this! Another R200 on a budget hanging on a thread! You guys want to see us dead

#6105

I am pensioner and cannot afford the new expense for the electricity. I'm battling to buy monthly prepaid electricity. I'm battling to make ends meet.

Selokela Mailula (Liefde en Vrede, 2024-07-05)

#6106

Electricity tariffs are too high. Why punish prepaid meter user with an extra R200 service fee. Please have pity on us.

Prisca Manala (Johannesburg, 2024-07-05)

#6107

This doesn't make sense.

Justice Moabi (Rodepoort, 2024-07-05)

#6108

I am signing this petition because I disagree with the initiated service fees for prepaid electricity users such as myself. It is very unreasonable to the current interest rate our country is already facing and cost of living is also already high, I can barely afford to buy electricity a month without getting into more debt or use other resources. I am therefore against this service fee it should be scrapped altogether.

Bafedile Makete (Johannesburg, 2024-07-05)

I cant afford

Debbie Souls (Gauteng, 2024-07-05)

#6112

It’s very unfair what they’re trying to do. The electricity already we buy R500 n get units less than 200 units that’s very unfair.

Caroline Netshivhodza (Johannesburg, 2024-07-05)

Siphiwe Nxumalo (Ekurhuleni, 2024-07-05)

#6123

City Power is in debt to Eskom and passing the bill onto us consumers.

Corruption, mismanagement and illegal connections

Your increase is way above inflation and will affect our overall inflation.

Nishen Sewram (Randburg, 2024-07-05)

The financial increase in basic human requirements are already toooo much.... I agree 100% with this petition...

2.5 miljoen people must pay more so that 47.5 miljoen people can steal or get electricity cheap or for free.

Sarel Potgieter (JHB, 2024-07-05)

#6132

Already we are struggling as it is with the economy and having to be charged R200 and still the tariffs went up again it’s too much.

I am affected by this R200 that the impose without justification.how is this amount brocken down, how did they service their network before ?

Noel Mabasa (Johannesburg, 2024-07-05)

#6142

There are many people not buying electricity yet living off it by illegal connections, it's unfair towards us that are infact buying on a daily basis.

Lutece' Martin (Gauteng, 2024-07-05)

#6143

I can no longer afford these expenses. The costs of electricity, water, and utilities keep rising relentlessly. Without salary increases, how are we expected to get by? I've been faithfully paying income taxes to SARS for more than 40 years and have steadfastly supported this government. This treatment feels like a clear insult to a fellow South African who has backed the ANC government since my early school years.

Farouk Moolla (Robertsham, Johannesburg, 2024-07-05)

#6144

The service fee imposed on us is unfair, we are barely surviving with price hikes on basic needs.
It's putting financial pressure on us, we can barely provide for our families anymore and we don't have a say on these issues, it's like we don't matter unless unless state facilities want to take from us.

We basically working to serve other people's lifestyles while we suffer.

Mosima Masha (Johannesburg, 2024-07-05)

#6148

Im signing because I do not agree with the increase It is Highway robbery and should be deemed unconstitutional. We are already paying for services we are not getting plus we paying everytime we have loadshedding as meter units deplete faster then normal on prepaid. I will never agree to paying this. If im forced they can come fetch thier meter!

Nick Guilherme (Johannesburg, 2024-07-05)

#6155

I'm signing because it's not right that we must pay for the misuse of funds by these departments.

Noxolo Mashata (Krugersdorp, 2024-07-05)

#6177

This increase has been sudden and no engagement was had with the affected customers. Also, City power is already charging us elevated tariffs when compared with people who are supplied directly by ESKOM

Tobokani Sebele (Johannesburg, 2024-07-05)
