    Eskom CEO says IPPs will cost R18 billion to bring to the grid

    Escom blames the need to increase power prices on the escalating price of export grade coal. All the power stations in South Africa were designed to work on the lowest grade coal available, basically what couldn't be sold anywhere else, which costs around 1/15th the price of export grade coal.

    Do you tip petrol attendants?

    MTN SuperSonic Feedback

    Has anyone successfully done a top-up via their online app. I'm trying to query it but no response. An earlier comment mentioned getting a ticket from the member page. that seems to be gone. Do they allow multiple accounts? if so it will be a damn sight cheaper than topping up. 100GB for 699
