Waste removal is a problem. They don't keep to their roster, they damage the wheelie bins, they leave the empty bins at the wrong houses. We pay for a service which is sub standard.

I’m tired of shocking service and quality of water in our area
Constant sewage spillages and very low water pressure

It is disgraceful how badly you are doing your job.

(Germiston, 2021-02-27)

#1823

We are being abused by those in Power, and expected to pay for Rates etc, and should we not, we are cut off. Overbilled, and onus on us to prove it.

(Germiston, 2021-02-28)

#1835

Tired of having to pay rates and taxes, and not receiving decent service from Ekurhuleni.....!!!!

The current municipality is a joke, they do not care about the people they are supposed to be working for.They should forfeit their gross salaries till there are major improvements

(Germiston, 2021-03-01)

#1847

Ekurhuleni is suffering from complete neglect. There is no interest taken in the well being of communities, becoming a free for all, with some people doing as they please. And with no consequence

(Germiston, 2021-03-01)

#1849

The waist dump in Alberton looks horific never ever been in such a disgusting state and staff is just sitting there doing absolutly nothing 😠

(Germiston, 2021-03-01)

#1860

We are paying for services but nothing is done. There is no services

(Boksburg, 2021-03-01)

#1863

Why do we pay rates and taxes and refuse removal

(Germiston, 2021-03-01)

#1867

Want ek is gatvol vir die vuil shithole Springs wat veroorsaak word deur die anc beheerder stadsraad..

(Springs, 2021-03-01)

#1868

The whole of Ekurhuleni is in bad state; rubble in street; rubbish dumps sky high; potholes becoming dams; street lights on ALL day .... one can go on ALL day ....

(Boksburg, 2021-03-01)

#1872

(Germiston, 2021-03-01)

Everywhere there are rats! It is your legal duty to protect our environment.

I want to see change in my society

(Alberton, 2021-03-03)

#1879

I need work cleaning office

(Sprutivew, 2021-03-08)

#1889

General apathy with regard to the service of the EMM and its managers

(Ekurhuleni, 2021-03-31)

#1891

My rates are going up by 350% I will NEVER be able to sell my home for that amount. We are paying for non-existent service. It is time to stand together and stop paying until they stop stealing

(Bedfordview, 2021-03-31)

#1892

Agree with everything on petition

(Kempton park, 2021-03-31)

#1893

The municipality is not abiding by the laws

(Germiston, 2021-03-31)

#1897

The service problems must be sorted out once and for all. Permits for apartments, clusters, should not be issued until our infrastructure is completely overhauled and upgraded.

(Germiston, 2021-03-31)

#1898

Tired of incompetence and maladministration......we cannot continue like this!!

(Bedfordview, 2021-03-31)

#1899

I am tied of paying paying paying and getting no service.
I am tied of the way the poor are treated.

(Ekurhukeni, 2021-03-31)

#1903

Need to be proud

(Oriel, Bedfordview, 2021-03-31)

#1906

I’m tired of paying rates for services I don’t receive.

(Bedfordview, 2021-04-01)

#1907

We pay for waste removal so it should be done

(Bedfordview, 2021-04-01)

#1909

Am tired my rates and taxes being wasted away.

(Bedfordview, 2021-04-01)

#1913

Unhealthy for our dustbins not being emptied and risk of dustbins being stolen when left outside to be emptied and not done on our removal date. We pay for the service and expect to get the service. We can stop paying and do our own refuse removal

(Albemarle, 2021-04-02)

#1914

The garbage has not been collected and it'd not the first time

(Germiston, 2021-04-02)

#1917

Unhappy with services

(Germiston, 2021-04-02)

#1918

It's very rare that our waste is collected on the due date

(Germiston, 2021-04-02)

#1921

I'm sighting because enough is enough.

(Germiston, 2021-04-02)

#1922

I dont not agree with just doubling the rateable value without and proper evaluation been done

(Germiston, 2021-04-02)

#1924

Waste collection not collected is becoming a common thing and we paying for the service and i have to find other means to pay to have my wasted taken away privately

(Germiston, 2021-04-02)

#1925

Fed up with service delivery

(Germiston, 2021-04-02)

#1926

I am being affected by the non removal.

(Germiston, 2021-04-02)

#1927

It is our constitutional right to have a municipality deliver basic services for which we pay.
Refuse collection is not done once per week as stipulated.
This is a health violation against the community.

(Germiston, 2021-04-05)

#1930

Collection of refuse is a public service to be supplied by the various municipalities.

(Bedfordview, 2021-04-06)

#1934

we need our waste collected we are paying for the service. Called day light robbery

(Benoni, 2021-04-08)

#1939

I pay tax

(Bedfordview, 2021-04-14)

#1943

Waste management is intrinsic to health management.

(Bedfordview, 2021-04-14)

#1946

We tax payers demand a healthy environment.

(Bedfordview, 2021-04-14)

#1954

I am sick and tired of paying taxes and not getting the Muncipality services that should be used to ensure proper, maintenance of infrastructure, timely refuse collection, repairing potholes and ensuring our water is drinkable. We have sewerage leaking into our water system.

(Bedfordview, 2021-04-14)

#1959

No service no pay!

(Bedfordview, 2021-04-14)

#1960

(Gauteng, 2021-04-14)

#1962

I pay for a service. Sick to death with poor administration corruption and incompetence

(Bedfordview, 2021-04-14)

#1966

Every office bearers shouls be held reaponaible and accountable

(Germiston, 2021-04-15)

#1971

Council is not providimg the services I an forced to pay for. They do what they want without thinking of the residents. It is sickening how our area has been deteriorating. Wr need someone wwho actually deliver service an not just srt on lining their own pockets. Why should i pay for services not rendered.

(Primrose, 2021-04-15)

#1973

We are paying for services we are not getting.

(Gauteng, 2021-04-15)

#1975

I'm signing because I care and I have wondered for a while where I could voice my concern. This is an opportunity I am thankful for.

(Germiston, 2021-04-15)

#1978

I want our families to grow up in a clean and healthy environment

(Germiston, 2021-04-15)

#1982

Service delivery is poor why we need to pay on time or we get cut off dont think it is fair

(Germiston, 2021-04-15)

#1983

Waste has not been collected in 2x weeks and it’s building up, so much so that we will be charged for double bins! It’s bad!

(Primrose, 2021-04-15)

#1988

The waste removal service is non existent and the rubbish are piling up. We are still charged although we get no service at all. Bins are stolen all over the place because noone knows anymore when to take them in and when they will be cleaned

(Primrose Germiston, 2021-04-15)

#1989

Tired of the lack of service delivery

(Germiston, 2021-04-15)

#1991

Poor service delivery, bins have not been emptied in 2 weeks

(Primrose, 2021-04-15)

#1993

Sick and tired of the lack of service delivery! Something needs to change!!

(Germiston, 2021-04-15)

#1994

I feel we as a community deserve and are entitled to a clean and pleasant environment where our kids can grow and prosper
Let's get our city back to its former glory not only for the residents but for the province it's in aswell as the country we all so dearly love and cherish. For South Africa

(Germiston, 2021-04-15)

#1997

I agree with the grievance.
