Laptop Computer Margaret Keswa of Dube, Soweto, went to Eskom's Braamfontein offices in 1998 to ask for a power connection. She still does not have one, but the bills keep on coming.

"Computer industry analysts estimate that some 60 percent of all corporate data exists only on desktop and laptop computers, " said Walter Scott, CEO of Acronis. "Incorporating Acronis True Image with New Mexico Software backup server is the ideal solution to capture that corporate data and ensure that it is not lost. While traditional server backups are effective for protecting server data, every company should have a combination of server and workstation backup plans."

Desktop Computer Moffat Sithole, of Rockville, electricity was cut off in 1997 following a debt of 277,69 rands. Later that year he paid Eskom 278 rands and started receiving 31c credit accounts. He has never had electricity in his house again, but Eskom is demanding an 800 rand reconnection fee. Sithole, a pensioner, said he wrote to Eskom asking why agents had removed a cable to his house instead of just disconnecting the supply, but has had no reply. He has been receiving monthly bills, and the most recent one informed him that his consumption for July stood at 839.03 rands.

Notebooks Mzikaise Kubeka, a resident of Dube, complains "Eskom often billed people without reading the meters. Right now my meter is not working. I have reported it several times but nothing has been done about it. How does Eskom determine my consumption? Where do they get the amount from if they are not checking the meter?"
