Who do I contact if something goes wrong with my  prepaid meter?

The electricity call center can be reached on the following numbers 012 358 9999 / 012 3399111.

This means that the Municipality has blocked your pre-paid electricity meter from purchasing pre-paid electricity until the Pre-paid meter is unblocked and in this case an arrangement must be made for an arrears account to be paid or proof of Account payment must be provided to the municipal Finance Department that the account has been paid and then the pre-paid electricity meter will be unblocked.
