Eskom has warned the community to be careful when purchases energy efficient products.<\/p>\n

This comes on the tail of claims that Eskom is in partnership with a company called Gimme Power CC and\/or any other company that claims to sell a product which reduces electricity consumption.<\/p>

<\/div>\n

This is not true.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, the company is personal selling, among others, a product termed “electric buddy” which is purportedly approved by Eskom as being energy efficient.<\/p>

<\/div>\n

At no stage did Eskom endorse Gimme Power as a company working in partnership with Eskom, or the “electric buddy” or any of Gimme Power\u2019s products to be energy-saving.<\/p>\n

Thus the conduct of distributing marketing material stating that Gimme Power is in partnership with Eskom or that Eskom has approved any of Gimme Power\u2019s products as being energy-efficient is not only false but misleading to the public.<\/p>\n

Eskom is not associated with any of the company\u2019s products or promotional\/marketing material.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
