Effective July 2024, after-hours assistance for blocked pre-paid electricity meters will no longer be available. Therefore, arrangements to unblock a meter must be made before Friday afternoons at 14:00.
Once all credit control actions (such as SMS notifications and final demand notices) have been implemented and no response is received from the client, a one-time block for R300.00 will be instituted on arrear accounts. This means that the account holder can incur up to 10 transactions to the maximum value of R300. After reaching the R300 limit or completing 10 transactions, the meter will be fully blocked with no further purchases allowed and unblocking arrangements will need to be attended to during the week.
If you buy 10 times for R10.00 or R20.00 your meter will be blocked before you reach the R300.00 limit due to the 10-transaction cap.
To UNBLOCK your prepaid meter, follow one of the steps below:
• Full payment of your municipal account
• Payment arrangement
• Apply for Indigent Subsidy if you qualify (2 x SASSA)

Na-ure bystand vir geblokte pre-paid meters word vanaf Julie 2024 gestaak
Met ingang van Julie 2024 sal die na-ure bystand vir geblokkeerde pre-paid meters nie meer beskikbaar wees nie. Enige reelings om ’n blok te lig moet dus geskied voor Vrydag-middae om14:00.

Dit beteken dat die rekeninghouer tot 10 transaksies kan aangaan, tot ’n maksimum van R300 om krag te koop. Nadat die R300-limiet bereik is of 10 transaksies voltooi is, sal die meter ten volle geblok word en geen verdere aankope sal toegelaat word en ontblokkeringsreëlings sal gedurende die week gedoen moet word.
As daar dus 10 keer krag gekoop word vir R10.00 of R20.00 sal die meter geblok word voordat die R300.00 limiet bereik is as gevolg van die 10-transaksielimiet.
Om ’n geblokte pre-paid meter te ontblok volg asseblief een van die volgende stappe hieronder.
