Many residents throughout the city contact the metro each month to give their meter readings.<\/p>\n

In recent weeks many of these residents have reported a problem when trying to submit these readings.<\/p>

<\/div>\n

Ward 36 councillor Wendy Morgan shed some light on the situation stating, \u201cThe contract with the current service provider for the meter reading capturing has expired,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Ntiyoso Consulting: Call 010 900 4641 or send an email to trevor.mupeti@ntiyosoconsulting.co.za<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cMeter readings should be submitted on the same day of each month to ensure that each month is charged for the same amount of days,\u201d Morgan said.<\/p>\n

\u201cSubmitting your meter readings also avoids interim readings which are normally higher than your normal consumption.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe community should also note that third party payments on an account can take up to seven days to reflect.<\/p>\n

\u201cResidents are, therefore, encouraged to pay their accounts with enough time to avoid disconnection notices.\u201d<\/p>\n
