I'd like to know if there is anyone or authority that handles loadshedding unfairness. As I travel between 3 area's weekly and have done so for decades it's become very obvious that a particular area has on average 1 round more loadshedding daily. The way the stages are shuffled is the reason the area has more loadshedding. It's even obvious on the app if you factor what stage starts when and in an old day planner the actual occurrences are noted for each area. Asking any Eskom employee yields nothing as they will argue that loadshedding is fair with evidence on the table.
Can't log in using google account. Keeps aking me to provide a handle. Can't get help from the help center as it too keep asking for a handle. Don't remeber ever logging into Twitter so asking me to give a handle is madness. Reminds me why I stopped using Paypal. Worked fine in the 90's, up untill they started asking users to provide an adress and kept refusing any SA adress. So two infinite loops to nowhere.
Bad. Got delayed 4x today at Kroonstad branch while 5 people were helped while I was waiting (some with the same order). Roughly 15mins +- to 16:00 the lasy helping me decided to refill the machine (unnecessary) while the lady at the next till helped 5 people, on top of which a cup got knocked off the table causing more delay then she asked me if I minded waiting while the other lady was using the machine, so I rep**** why? Once she finally got her **** together the cleaner came and kept her from finalizing the sale. It was obvious that I was not the preferred customer, so thanks. Cheers.
Wow, why is being punctual so difficult? ie. U Save Kroonstad is 11 minutes late opening. I'm leaving.
Vodacom has not only taken a page from Eskom, but copied the whole book. Lately the signal and speeds are just bad if usable, not to mention during loadshedding there's no signal. The night owl data has become nothing but a **** as one can now never trust the power to stay on. It's odd though, when the schedule for loadshedding changes there's no signal from Vodacom at the previous scheduled hours while the power is on. Is this the new norm, I'd like to know so I can better decide my next ISP.
