Eskom’s poor service costing consumers

We have so many power cuts and yet our electricit­y bills remain high, writes Eddie M.

Eskom’s thievery, inability to provide uninterrup­ted power supply, incompeten­ce, lack of skill and bad workmanshi­p are costing paying consumers jobs losses and earnings.

While their jobs are secure and they even get paid bonuses for super bad performanc­e with no consequenc­es for not doing what they are paid to do.

They keep on blaming the previous government but they were handed a fully operationa­l system which they could not maintain and upgrade because they were too busy planning on ways to steal the money.

Now they have the nerve to request tariff increases but still their service is not improving.

They think because we are informed that there will be stage whatever load shedding, they are doing their jobs.

What a disgrace and misuse of our hard earned money. We have so many power cuts and yet our electricit­y bills remain high.

Our appliances are starting to fail because of all the on and off switching by this government-controlled utility. Shame on you, ANC.
