Excessive Electricity charges #*****
I purchased electricity via the Capitec app and paid R2000.00 but only received electricity to the value of only R1495.65 which is 460.5 kWh. (Receipt number: ***) Electricity for the value of R2000.00 should be between 768kWh & 722kWh in the Ekurhuleni district, Tarif A and Tariff B. I then called Capitec to find out why this happened and were notified by the consultant that Capitec do not provide the tokens at all and stated that the purchase was directly to and from the municipality instead, with this, I advised that I purchased the electricity via the Capitec app and therefore rendering this a Capitec issue. Capitec is providing a service to the public by allowing people to purchase electricity from Capitec via the app, this means that Capitec is rendering a service in this regard and should be liable. The consultant could not advise on what happened to the R505.00 that went missing but did advise on a R280.00 fee charge from Capitec to the municipality, this however still does not explain why I was charged R505.00 and should also not be a chargeable fee to the public seeming Capitec is rendering this fee and should do so at their own expense then. The consultant then told me to contact Ekurhuleni to elaborate on the missing funds in an attempt to steer this away from Capitec's responsibility. I then advised to the consultant that I purchased the electricity via Capitec and indicated that Capitec is committing ***** by *****ing money from its clients where the consultant then confirmed this in saying YES they do. (Call ***) Perhaps it is time to move away from Capitec due to the incompetence and transaction *****.
#Think twice before buying electricity via the Capitec App.

Truly sad to see such a well-spoken of bank now allowing money to vanish from transactions and not willing to take ownership of their *********** actions.
