We pay our accounts every month. Municipalities do not pay Eskom. Iso recovering of debt by Eskom the paying users are punished by increasing electricity bills of the law abiding citizens.Rita Haasbroek (Roodepoort, 2024-07-03)

In the economically difficulties we are facing with already exuberant charges and fees from COJ adding another R200 onto of a 12% increase is extremely unfair will the government only be happy once we are crippled financiallyLUCRETIA GOUS (CLAREMONT, 2024-07-03)

You can not increase a service fee for a service not rendered in the first place. Fix load shedding permanently and stop ignoring illegal unpaid connections. Service your paying customer then ask for an increase.Dennis Swanepoel (Krugersdorp, 2024-07-03)

I'm tired and can't afford anything anymore, we pay for services and everything keeps on going up for people who are paying and those who are not paying for anything, keep on getting everything for free. Where do we get all this money, only services are increasing but people are still on the same salary 😔Ambani Maduwa (Johannesburg, 2024-07-03)

EK is gatvol with City Power. The price of electricity that has skyrocketed from R150 per kilowatt-hour (kWh) to R236.34 per kWh is madness. That's a massive increase of over 57%!The increase in electricity prices must be a significant burden for many households.

I believe that the standard fee levied on electricity purchases is unfair, considering the economic conditions. The repo rates are at its highest, while our salaries have remained stagnant. I ask that City Power and NERSA to reconsider this fee, we as consumers are struggling, we haven’t recovered since COVID.Maxwell Hlongwane (Johannesburg, 2024-07-03)

Im signing because I don't agree with the introduction of R200 service fee. It's really unreasonable bcz we are now being charged for buying electricity. City power must use its budget allocation from City and the one they generate when we buy electricityMtokozisi Ncube (Johannesburg, 2024-07-03)

I just don't like what city power is trying to do by expecting us residents to pay an extra R200 when the cost of electricity is already sky high. Please stop this nonsense. I say No to extra fees and No to high electric charges. Hell noooooo.Thabang Mogomotsi (Rooodeport, 2024-07-03)

I am signing this petition because l can not afford to pay a R 200 charge on electricity on top of the charges that are already there like levies, sewerage etc. I have a small child who still needs diapers and that R 200 that will be taken away from me is exactly the money that contributes towards buying those diapers and l do not earn well. My income is not enough to accommodate another R 200 on top of the expenses that l already have as it is.Zanele Lukashe (Johannesburg, 2024-07-03)

Im signing because the whole exercise is ridiculous. Where was City Power sourcing the infrastructure funds all along. Had they capped the amount to R50 it woudlve been better.

How do you impose costs on an already struggling country? Already the employment numbers in jhb dnt make sense and everything is expensive.

It really is unfair that low cost houses built for first time homeowners can incur so many costs: Body corporate levies, COJ tariffs, water purchases and now a R200 electricity service fee on top of the electricity increase.

As per sowato. Article we are not freeloaders. It was decided for us to install these meter. Plus when it was 7nder Eskomwe got free units. It is ridiculous that a R1000 get you you 252 units.
