Eskom has really made electricity a luxury in Mzansi. Never mind the daily loadshedding, one man paid R600 for 64.3kWh of electricity – that is insane!
Prepaid meters have definitely made it easier for people to control their electricity consumption, however, there are still a lot of things that don’t add up. Like paying R600 for 64.3kWh of electricity.
Twitter user @keepprayingbro shared his friends prepaid electricity token slip, showing that he paid R600 for 64.3kWh of electricity. Something has to be wrong here!

“R9,4 per kWh means you are a heavy user but opted for option A, instead of B. So nothing untoward here. Just chose the correct tariff.”
@Siyabashaya said:
“Daylight robbery. Or maybe you forgot to pay municipal rates. A lot municipalities simply recover it from your next pre-paid recharge.”

Mzansi man left in shock as landlady sends him a mere R10 electricity when his units ran out
In related news, Briefly News reported that electricity has become a luxury. Between Eskom and stingy landlords, one young man might be turning to candles as permanent fixtures, LOL.
With loadshedding, constant power outages and electricity costing an arm and a leg, some Mzansi citizens would prefer if they’d just shut it off completely.
Twitter user @Real_Stevemalt was out of units so he contacted his landlady, and was not prepared for what she was about to present him. A mere R10 electricity is all our guy got and he had no words.
