Residents claim they were not informed of City’s plan pre-paid meter installation

Residents of Lyttelton have claimed that the Tshwane metro ambushed them with the roll-out of prepaid electricity meters in the area.

A resident who spoke to Rekord, Khosi Prodence said it was unfortunate that the metro would just take such a decision on her behalf without even checking with her first.

“It is very strange for the City to just decide they are going to come inside my house and install their boxes in my house without notifying me. I am honestly okay with my conventional electricity, this thing of prepaid would disadvantage me, what if I run out of units before month’s end?” she said.
