Eskom starts load shedding

The Eskom websites currently states "Load Shedding Status: Stage 3" what does that mean? When will we have power back?
 
Blackmail cycle, must like the Mafia protection racket .. pay us in order to not make your life difficult (util next time anyway).

It never fails to remind me of a scene from Mad Max 3 where they turn off the tap to put on an embargo until they get what they want, and then embargo is lifted.
 
Eskom Load Shedding Schedule Page....

Eskom you bastids - stop teasing us - that fcking page is useless :mad: @ Eskom - they can't even plan their bloody loadshedding - most Western Cape areas that link gives you a 'your area not found' and for those areas that are found, the schedule is not being adhered.

Dammit Eskom -at least allow us to plan for when the power will be off - this random electricity cutoff is very frustrating.

Just got notice that power will be off here DAILY between 2:00 to 4:00, 10:00 to 12:30 and 18:00 to 20:30 until the 1st of April.

Why do they not just turn it off and get it over with. Thanks Eskom for giving the term 'Dark Africa' new meaning.....

Well at least it seems that the clock in Eskom's head office is running on batteries and not electricity as it seems to be working.

Power went off at exactly 10:00 and came back on at exactly 12:30.
