How to contact Eskom in the Western Cape

Eskom would like to share its complaint handling process for customers whose query/fault is not attended to or has not been resolved to their satisfaction.

Eskom customers are encouraged to direct their query/fault directly to the ESKOM’S Contact Centre. The report must include the account number of the affected property or properties.

The following channels are available. 

• Eskom Contact Centre: 08600 37566 or 08600ESKOM (available 24hrs, seven days a week)

• SMS line: 35328

• E-Mail: customerservices@eskom.co.za

• MyEskom Customer App, downloadable from “APP STORE”

Valuable Tips:

When many affected customers report the problem, it will naturally receive a higher priority. (Eskom relies on the report/reference of just one complainant, it may seem that the fault is a single customer issue).

Eskom clients are therefore encouraged to use the system to report faults and to ask for a reference number. 

Always include a valid account number, erf/stand number or meter number for effective service delivery.

Complaints:

To follow up on issues when a response is not forthcoming, you may escalate your complaint to Customer Relations Management during weekdays.

If your query/fault has not been attended to within 48 hours, please direct your complaint to the responsible customer ralations manager during weekdays - always provide your reference number.

CUSTOMER RELATIONS MANAGER WESTERN CAPE: David Ockhuis on 078 269 1917or e-mail: CustomerRelationsWC@eskom.co.za
