My house is unprotected due to the fact that the alarm battery only last for a short while without electricity. I have lost all my food in my fridge as well as my freezer. I have overspend on my budget to purchase fuel for my generator.

The constant electrical and water suoply failures are inconvenient and costly.

Willem Acjerman (Kempton Parj, 2019-06-12)

#820

Electricity to be restored today, as we are sitting without power since Saturday morning

Chantel Hebler (Kempton Park, 2019-06-12)

#821

It is absolutely ridiculous that we are without electricity for 4 days now. Then we still get fed a load of bull that it is due to cable theft. Rather be upfront and say it is due to bad maintenance but don't lie to residents! Get your act together Ekurhuleni!

Too much losses due to electricity outage.
Seems like nothing is being done to help the community!

Charlene Guthrie (Glen Marais, 2019-06-12)

These power outages are unfair

Tired of enduring the inconvenience of either water or electricity cut off's. Yet rates just escalating but services don't improve

I sign this cause I believe the Erkhuleni municipality is generally doing a good job to maintain the infrastructure however I believe they can be more transparent regarding the causes of breakdown that we the residents are frequently inconvenienced with.

Peter Palmer (Kempton Park , 2019-06-12)

#839

I'm sick and tired of paying more and more towards municipal bills and getting less and less in return, due to bad management of the Ekurhuleni Metro

MARINDA SMITH (KEMPTON PARK, 2019-06-12)

#840

We pay top rates for services at Ekurhuleni but have continuous breakdown in electricity and water department. We want refunds on the petrol for our generators we have to use. We also want a credit for the time limit we were without services!

Ester Du plessis (Kempton park , 2019-06-12)

#843

Negligence of behalf of the council due to not maintaining the infrastructure. Employ personnel who can project manage, set up schedules for routine checking and maintenance.

Debbie Rademeyer (Kempton Park, 2019-06-12)

#846

We are having a HUGE price hike and no service to show for it

Ilona CrawCour (Kempton park, 2019-06-12)

Ekurhuleni municipality and Mayor Masina have proved themselves to be incompetent

Colin Reid (Kempton Park , 2019-06-12)

#857

I’m tired of being charged exorbitant tariffs for services that are not maintained and regularly serviced, which leaves the user inconvenienced!!!

June Schnetler (Kempton Park , 2019-06-12)

Something seriously needs to be done and immediately, the situation has never been so dire in all my years in Kempton Park.

The GEB is one of Five tripple rated Estates in Ehurhuleni and the present disaster of the melt down of the Glen Marias power station that effected tens of thousands raises a mypriad of questions and readiness to deal with disasters

Nicolaas Van (Glen Erasmia, 2019-06-12)

Enough is Enough
I'm in Kempton for the last 60 years and never experienced something like this Sham on the counsel and the so could Leaders ( playing toys drones)

I have suffered serious losses from these outages. My son is 7 months old still feeding on milk had to make fire on the ground just to ensure he,s fed and washed daily and yet im charged around R5500pm on services electricity being the bulk of this amount. Haven't slept for days having to guard my family due to no arlams and beams. In feddup!!!!

Collen Mbhele (Norkem Park Kempton Park, 2019-06-12)

#866

the electricity and water situation in Kempton Park needs to be attended to immediately. A full service maintenance should be done without delay!!! The power situation is NOT due to cable theft, don't try and lie about the situation, it is due to NO MAINTENANCE. We are paying for a service which is NOT being provided.

Linda Kriel (Kempton Park, 2019-06-12)

#870

Tomorrow will be the 6th day without electricity.. It is unacceptable, really. Loadshedding is fine, but this is outrageous.. You can just as well leave the situation as is, as we are used to no electricity by now.. One thing less to pay for each month!! That suits me perfectly.. Jaco terblanche should be the MAYOR as he ia the only one trying to assist..

Jonathan Oliver (Kempton Park, 2019-06-12)

#872

Patheti to say the least. Lost al my meat and frozen veg wich i bought for the month. Myself and my wife has list our jobs and dont have anymore food time give my children. And we wont be able to claim it as the munisipality (like the goverment) always refuse to take any responsibility for anything they bugger up!.

Hennie van Dam (Kempton Park, 2019-06-13)

#873

I am signing because of poor service from EM
if is not water then electricity i wonder what next
rubbish removal

Joseph Sibiya (Ekurhuleni, 2019-06-13)

This Municipality is not fit for purpose anymore!

Etienne Nieuwoudt (Kempton Park, 2019-06-13)

#878

Poor maintenance of the infrastructure is just not acceptable causing week long outage.

Gabriel Botha (Kempton Park , 2019-06-13)

#879

We have without electricity for 5 days and we are suffering. Come month end the municipality will want us to pay for the services that they didn't render

Refilow Maja (Johannesburg, 2019-06-13)

#883

This situation is unacceptable and I dread future situations like this.

Angelique Bryant (Glen Marais , 2019-06-13)

#885

Service which we pay for and tired of cable theft.

Zirkia Kennedy (Kempton Park, 2019-06-13)

#889

We continually have electricity interruptions or problems with water. Having no power for days on end is ridiculous and if proper maintenance was carried out we wouldn't have these problems. By not keeping up with maintenance and pre-empting problems before they arise is costing more in the long. Had adequate maintenance had been done the damage would not have been so bad

Maureen Anne Burrows (Kempton Park, 2019-06-13)

Of all the power outages

Janita Van der Merwe (Kempton Park, 2019-06-13)

I need power

Maxwell Nyatsambo (Johannesburg, 2019-06-14)

I am signing because I am fed up with this nonsense, I am studying and working so I don't have the money to buy meat just to go rotten in my fridge. This crap must end now. #7days with no electricity

Keagan Smith (Glen Marais , 2019-06-14)

I have had enough of poor service.

Tertia Hussey (Kempton Park, 2019-06-14)

#906

Because I am sick and tired of a metro council who don’t stick to their promises. I have much more to say but the space is too limited.

Kevin Veeren (Johannesburg , 2019-06-14)

#907

We have regularly power failures with no notice and we seem to be ignored by the municipality we pay the say as everyone else however we get poor service. This substation is 1km from my house and we were the last to be connected... No apology or info from municipality

Lyndon Stanley (Kempton Park, 2019-06-14)

#908

This didn't need to happen if competent people were constantly in place to do regular upgrades and maintenance. Obviously the mayor doesn't care as he wasn't affected and flying drones rather taking care of this matter costing rescidence alot of extra money! We oaynour rates and taxes, we pay PAYE, for what???!!

Luzanne Viljoen (Kempton Park , 2019-06-14)

#909

Every month I get a ridiculous bill for water and lights, but we don't have any electricity most of the time, it's either no water or no electricity, this is absolutely un acceptable, I have to now not eat the rest of the month because all my food went bad

Yolandi Du Toit (Johanesburg, 2019-06-14)

#911

1- Ekurhuleni should do regular maintenance on all substations and upgrade the MV cables
2- a backup generator could’ve been used to minimize the blackout

Amanda Davison (Kempton Park , 2019-06-14)

#912

Services in Kempton Park is disgusting. Everything is falling apart, electricity and water outages. Town looks like a pig sty. When will we as public have proper answers instead of this beating around the bush and get empty promises. We all want everyday utilities to work. Even going to the media is like water of a duck's back. Signing this petition from a very fed up Kemptonian.

Paula Annandale (Kempton Park, 2019-06-14)

#913

I am a resident of Kempton Park and our service delivery is bad for the amount of moneybwe have to pay every month. Struggle with refuse removal, electricity outage the last time was 80hours in VRP. Non water supply for 2 days, then again no electricity and water supply. LOW Water pressure in VRP as well

Elisma Pienaar (Kempton Park, 2019-06-14)

#914

We are supposed to be the Aerotropolis of South Africa. We constantly sit without water & electricity. Instead of lining your pockets, get off the gravy train & maintain this town as it should be maintained.

Shelly Richardson (Kempton Park, 2019-06-14)

#922

I’m tired of paying for non existent service delivery. The powers that be are only for themselves and not the community. We need change. Replace incompetent people with people who know how to do the job and want to work!!

Vivienne Dalzell (Kempton Park , 2019-06-15)

#925

Lack of services and maintenance is reduculous. Should we strike by means of withholding our rates and taxes??

Lydia Terblanché (Kempton park, 2019-06-15)

I agree we have an on going issue with electrical and water supply. The issue need to be addressed and rectified.

Beswent Bester (Kempton Park, 2019-06-17)

#944

I am sick and tired of the negligence and uselessness. The electricity situation is pathetic. We pay for a service we don't get, and we have to throw away good expensive food because it has gone off due to no electricity.

Sabrina De Klerk (Kempton Park, 2019-06-17)

#950

We pay for maintenance to be done on utilities.....

Chené Blom (Kempton park, 2019-06-18)

#953

We require a CONSTANT electricity supply. Not all the outages for No reason...…..Maintenance done on a regular basis...……..All out appliances are breaking down. Security Risk is HIGH.

Doris Pittuck (Kempton Park, 2019-06-19)

#956

The power failures in Kempton Park have been getting worse and worse an nothing is done about it. We are only offered lame excuses by the municipality. There are also continious issues in Glen Marais with water. These have also been getting worse over time.

Our hard earned tax money is used to pay salaries for an over staffed, useless municipality that can do nothing but talk and waste our money.

Gerrit Terblanche (Kempton Park, 2019-06-20)

I am tired of these power outages in our area. Our food is getting spoilt, security is being comprised, any devices plugged in when the power switches off is now being damaged. We still have to pay the same bills.

Nelanie Naidoo (Kempton Park, 2019-07-06)

I'm signing because, I am dick and tired of or no water or no power. What the hell is happening in SA. Why are we paying taxes , electricity. For what. Are we going into stone age. Why don't they fix the problem.

The power outages are RIDICULOUS!! Competent people should be employed to do the maintenance which should be done regularly.

Doris Pfeifer (Edleen, 2019-07-07)

We are experiencing far too many electricity outages, very few are recorded for residence to be aware of them to make alternative arrangements. Very inconvenient...
