Gasping Posted June 25, 2009 Share I think Eskom did what we used to do to Dad - If you want R20, ask for R30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thug Posted June 25, 2009 Share How the #@%^ can the man in the street ie you and me, afford a 31.3% increase in electricity !! Of course there are special agreements with big businesses so that doesn't affect them. Also PD communities will only be getting a 15% odd increase. http://www.fin24.com/articles/default/display_article.aspx?ArticleId=2531181 The Thug2009-06-25 06:05:36 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christopher Brunsdon Posted June 25, 2009 Share Well at least I get a 10% one next month - ours is in July. Sux though as I should be getting a 50% one to bring me in-line with minimal wages for my experience (ignoring the job offer I just saw that initiated my above rant) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thug Posted June 25, 2009 Share Midrand - There are lies being told on the electricity issue in South Africa and Eskom is discriminating on price and pushing consumer electricity prices in South Africa into the top half of charges worldwide, according to a leading economist on Friday. Chief economist of Economists.co.za, Mike Sch?ssler, told the National Consumer Forum in Midrand on Friday that Eskom sells electricity at cheaper than cost to internationals, but consumer prices have quadrupled between 1996 and 2009. "If you say you are not making money, but are giving a 34% increase to people paying above costs, what are you doing to those you are selling to below cost?" asked Sch?ssler rhetorically. "It is not correct to say we have the cheapest electricity in the world - rather tell us industry has the lowest prices in the world," he said. Industry pays the second-lowest price for electricity after internationals in South Africa, while residences are on top and paying well above cost. "How can we export electricity at a price one-third of what consumers pay and then ask for 34%?" questioned Sch?ssler.
