Prepaid Electricity | Eskom urges customers to recode meters by 24th November: Daphne Mokwena

[@507mosco]

How are we expected to recode our meters without proper instructions on how to do so?

[@Malejie]

Exactly my thought... all she mentioned was a 20 digit code to be entered... other than that, you need to figure it out on your own I guess or phone in to get assistance as to how to update your meter.

[@nikkijooste-strombeck5045]

I was just thinking this! I don't know what to do.

[@AbbiGovender]

What happens to the people that cant afford especially the senior citizens with a pension of R2,180

[@ArthurMtshali]

Where do we get these & who is installing for us

[@morganchetty7593]

Why is there no notification placards or programmes outside or inside rent offices across all district municipalities to show customers on how to recode upgrade their meters. Why hide or shy away from ratepayers as this is govermental or gazetted by goverment. All rent offices should have clear notifications for all customers (ratepayers) to be aware.

[@phamphiletsoalo6101]

Cause the cost to fix this is R12k. I think this is a business decision (profits)😢

[@RickOShay]

Eskom should not feel proud - they are grossly overpaid to do one thing - to keep the lights on. They are not being paid to run up hundreds of billions in debt! When Eskom is no longer bankrupt and makes a profit - and has kept the lights on for 5 years - then we'll applaud them - not before.

[@BotsheloTlholoe]

Is it the same 20 digits numbers we all use to updated

[@diatilenthoba8262]

R100, electricity don't finish a week... with this high unemployment life is tough 🤞

[@JohnMelane]

Eskom must first clean his or her house I've been applying for a meterbox because my one became blank until now its a fourth year now I've got references and i also went to their offices at Belleville now how must i recode without a meter box they must go back and check the people's complaints and also their technician's if you 0:04 0:04 ask them they told you they are not here for you 😮 now i depend on the neighbors for power

[@sithembisomaphumulo8975]

Same story but my meter screen reads searching since and power is still on since.

[@GeraldNagel-q8u]

Eskom has already stopped prepaid meters on 20 October 2024. Many of us cannot upgrade nor buy or load electricity. Alfred communication, phone calls, emails with no result for days. ESkom has faulty meters now and have to replace. FACEBOOK has many entries with complaint. I have reported to the local newspaper on the Westcoast. Don't think it will help. NO ELECTRICITY. I hare the word "escalted being used by Eskom. Hope SABC will up.

[@davisphala1377]

So what about people who still use the old meters

[@Dasit246]

Axacly my issue...what abt all of us still using the old Meter Box that's outside?...

[@phamphiletsoalo6101]

​@@Dasit246it's gonna need to be upgraded

[@MatomeTauyakomaSeleka]

I wish my meterbox to be upgraided very soon because i can't buy elctricity to any retailer at the moment.

[@SarahArendse-ts2pk]

[@RhonaVenkatasu]

[@siphoduma8858]

[@Banginathi]

@@ntombi84 lol zodwa you misunderstood my comment, i am in support of your statement. They should simply give us a link. I dont have instructions also

[@takithetutor8300]

Complaints are no different to load shedding

[@AbbiGovender]

Everything is about monies,how much is the two tokens to recode our electricity meters.Who gets the monies for this???

[@hestersenekal5040]

What must I do and where can I go to do this please. Can you help me with this and what and where to do and go please.

[@powlly5738]

It's amazing how eskom is not addressing concerns of their customers. I was finally able to buy recharge units but there was no 20 digit recoding number supplied Eishkom!

[@jeantm4223]

How do you record it

[@SandraBizarroTavares]

Where do you buy the two tokens?

[@louisamfolo6359]

Will I have to buy electrity before I recode?If so,is it advisable to purchase it with my bank?

[@powlly5738]

Eskom is throwing a problem on our laps without doing anything to help. I couldn't buy electricity from the shops or online today. 22 Oct 2024 We already have a crisis

[@powlly5738]

I was finally able to buy recharge units but there was no 20 digit recoding number supplied. Please help eskom Please talk to your customers individually and tell them what they must do to comply.

[@ArthurMtshali]

This is pin pocketing

[@jerrynovember]

HOW DO I KNOW IT IS UPDATED? Because we bought electricity so many times that we don’t know if we already got those 20 digits or not. So how do I know I already updated my box by mistake ???

[@nikkijooste-strombeck5045]

This is what I'm wondering as well. How do we know when it's updated? Have you found any answers?

[@jerrynovember]

@ Yes I’ve found the answer: To check whether your meter has been recoded/upgraded to KRN2 or is still on KRN1, please enter the code “1844 6744 0738 4377 2416” on your prepaid meter’s keypad. The screen will display either the number 1 or 2, and in some cases, there may also be alphabetic letters alongside the KRN number. Number 1 means your meter is still on KRN1 and needs to be recoded/upgraded to KRN2.

[@ThamsanqaBusukuThamsanqa]

I just record down my numberz down but nothing goes on

[@afrikaazanialuti]

Is this why I am unable to load my voucher?

[@andileluvuno4988]

Make an audit on salaries, you will then understand why so much hikes. I always argue that the professionals in third world always bench mark with first world, infect first world countries are professionals and politicians like Norway use public transport on their ticket to work

[@raymondmpisane9798]

My charging code has 20 numbers. Do I have to recode ?

[@leoneldemagalhaes2998]

Where can I get the number

[@kamohelosinqaba]

@@leoneldemagalhaes2998 buy electricity at Shoprite or Pick ‘n Pay, the recoding digits will be on the slip

[@TheChe_23.]

How? Please ask them to communicate properly?

[@Martha-i9z]

Does the lady who tells us about Eskom, is she staying at Suburbs. We at the locations we are Suffering, pensioners, taking care of our grandchildren. Sometimes we go to bed on an "Empty, Empty stomach.

[@nikkijooste-strombeck5045]

I really feel for you!!

[@kaygeemasehla8375]

They know us when they need our votes they do door to door,but can't do door to door to help with meters updates not everyone can read & understand this meter updates

[@RickOShay]

SABC teach your presenters and interviewers basic skills! What information does the viewer need?! Does this affect all meters or just those in Eskom areas? How do we recode our meters? How do we contact Eskom in the event of a recoding problem?

[@claymileson6456]

Waffle waffle, we are waiting to find out exactly how the recoding is to be done.

[@DMSOLUTIONSADMIN]

THEY SAY MUST RECODE BUT THEY REFUSE TO TELL US HOW THESE PEOPLE ARE USLESS MAN PUT A DISCRIPTION ON HOW TO DO THIS, THE ONLY THING THEY WILL SAY IS WE NEED TO RECODE OR WE WONT HAVE ELECTRICTY AFTER NOVEMBER THEY SO DUMB

[@IbrahimBenyi]
