She even called to check if we had been connected. On the third <br />[10:20, 5/1/2017] +27 81 ********** : Dear Adel <br />Good morning.

I phone pretea metering and the call contact centre told me there are technicians who have been allocated. I told her our food is rotting and we do not know when they will eventually come. No water and electricity till now. She told me she dosent know but we have to be patient. I asked for the technician contacts and she said she doesnt have and added that there are so many of them working </p>

Dear Ephraim
The applications are handled by Eastern Region Properties and once they are satisfied that the application is complete, they give the request for reconnection through to Protea Metering.
It seems that the delay was with the application process, and Protea Metering did the reconnection on the same day that the request was received.
We do, however, regret any inconvenience that you had suffered due to the delay with sorting out of the application process.
We appreciate the changing of the rating of this review.
Warm regards
