cannot justify - crazy amounts

Please can someone justify the tariffs?? i pay R300 every second day for units - we have turned off lights and geysers and all - we go through almos 50 units during the night and only during the night. Meter man did an inspection a little while ago and found ne person on the property had bridged their meter. after this our electricity was fine for 3 weeks then it started again. No average person can spend R300 every 2 days for electricity - there is no one home during the day so everything is off. we only turn the geyser on when home.

its beyond justifiable

Good Morning

As advised this morning on our live chat, the owner of the property needs to send us the latest council bill which we have already requested as well as from the rental agent.  The rate on the meter is set as per the municipal account that the owner provides.  with the application.  Our tariff department needs to have a look at the account and adjust it accordingly. As soon as we receive the account we can work on the tariff. The owner has in the past rep**** to us and said noted but he never sent it. Please reach out to the owner of the property as well.  We apologise for any inconvenience caused but we have notified the owner of the property. Kind regards The Meter Man

Best regards,

Good Morning

I will check with our tariff department if your owner has sent us the council statement.  Have you since spoken to your owner or rental agent as previously asked? 

Best regards,

Hi Tamza, please supply me with your meter number.  We are aware that the owner is our client but he is in charge of the tariff on the meter as mentioned to you before the rate on the meter is set according to what the council charges the owner. 

Best regards,

We have now asked the owner again for the Eskom account and notified them that you are very upset. 

Best regards,
