Successful Completion of Token Identifier (TID) Rollover in George

George Municipality is pleased to announce the successful completion of the Token Identifier (TID) Rollover across all areas within the George Municipal precinct, including Uniondale, Haarlem, Wilderness, and surrounding areas.

Reports indicate that even areas serviced by Eskom have largely completed the TID rollover process. However, a few meters with irregularities, such as outdated meters or instances of tampering, have been identified. These will be addressed on a case-by-case basis.

With the 24 November 2024 deadline for all prepaid users in South Africa to switch to Key Revision Number (KRN 2) approaching, the Municipality assures residents that nearly all users in the George, Municipal area have been successfully updated. The remaining exceptions are limited to the identified irregularities, which are being managed.

The Municipality commends the officials and stakeholders involved such as Ontec and Eskom in this rollout for their dedication to the campaign, which included a robust communication strategy launched in 2022. Their meticulous planning and execution ensured the prompt completion of this important initiative. A special thanks is extended to the residents of George for their cooperation throughout the process.

Should residents encounter issues with purchasing electricity after 24 November 2024, they are encouraged to contact the Municipality or Ontec for prompt assistance.
