Johannesburg residents using prepaid water meters in specific areas have until Sunday, 24 November 2024, to update their meters to avoid service disruptions. The Token Identifier (TID) for all Standard Transfer Specification (STS) prepaid water meters is set to expire on this date, necessitating an upgrade to ensure continued functionality.Johannesburg Prepaid Water Meter Update Deadline Approaches
Affected Areas
The following areas are impacted by this update:
• Orange Farm
• Cosmo City
• Orlando East and West
• Diepkloof in Soweto
Background
The rollout for upgrading the systems from Key Revision Number (KRN) one to KRN two commenced in July 2024. This upgrade is crucial as the current TID will run out of range after 24 November, causing prepaid meters to stop accepting new tokens. Johannesburg Water spokesperson Nombuso Tshabalala emphasized the importance of this update to prevent service interruptions.
