Eskom could face class action suit
If you or your business has suffered quantifiable losses due to load shedding - you can join a class action lawsuit against Eskom.
A South African law firm's gearing up to take on Eskom in court.
Elaine Bergenthuin of De Beer Attorneys says Eskom's failure to do its job is at the heart of the matter.
She says they've been approached by companies across the country, who say business for them came to a standstill during power cuts.
"Companies running factories had to shut down those factories - for specific periods of time. So it's a definite a loss of profit, damages to machinery and equipment, having internet connectivity, phone connectivity affected as well the loss of good will and reputation as a result of that," Bergenthuin said.
Bergenthuin says anyone can contact them.
