Pay your account before the busy season, says the City of Cape Town

The City of Cape Town has urged its account holders to plan accordingly when paying their accounts to avoid possible debt management and legal action.

Debt actions have been intensified, especially against frequent defaulters and those who are able to pay but choose not to do so.

The City’s Mayoral Committee Member for Finance, Alderman Ian Neilson said the City has programmes in place to assist those who are struggling with payment.

The busiest time of the year for account payments, says the City, are normally  in November and the December, thus as many customers choose to make payments or payment arrangements before they go away for the holiday period or to settle accounts. The City has warned that increased activity can however lead to longer waiting periods at City facilities.
