Outage

A pole fell into my yard on Saturday night [30 August 2026] . Eskom technicians came to switch off electricity as it was unsafe and left. Since then we have had NO electricity for 5 days, heading to day 6. We have logged bynumerous tickets on Alfred with no feedback and made calls with no help. And yet we pay high tariffs of electricity and this is the service that we receive.

The pole is still lying in my yard. This is a safety hazard and we are sitting in the dark with food spoiling. Please send a construction team urgently today.

Until now there has been no resolution there is a lot of damage, would you stay for 7 days without electricity?
