Posted on: 03-11-2017Why are there no Active and Archived insurance documents, made available for the owners to access? Every owner must assess their Unit/s market value annually, and adjust the insured value with AIG SA (Pty) Ltd accordingly? For information purposes to All Unit Owners, the policy number is 03MMM4218565. A renewal was meant to take place on 1 September 2017, was this done with AIG SA (Pty) Ltd?

Notice of immediate implementation of water rationing across Cape Town
Dear water user
The City of Cape Town has activated water rationing to forcibly lower water usage in line with water restrictions across the metro as phase 1 of its critical water shortages disaster plan.
Water usage remains dangerously high above required levels.
Rationing will lead to intermittent supply, likely during peak water consumption hours in the mornings and evenings. It won’t result in a complete shutdown, but some areas may experience short water outages. Service will be restored as quickly as possible. Please note the following key points:
• Please keep up to 5 litres of water available for essential use only during rationing.
• Please do not store excessive municipal water.
• Definitive timetables of the outages cannot be provided as water systems must be managed flexibly to avoid damage to critical infrastructure.
• When you experience a loss of water supply and before you contact our call centre, please check your neighbour’s supply first to see whether it is likely a case of rationing.
• If you reside in or operate from multi-storey buildings, ensure that the water supply system (booster pumps and roof-top storage) is in working order in compliance with the Water By-law.
• The City is not liable for any impact on or damage to private infrastructure resulting from the rationing or associated operations.
• Please ensure that all taps are closed when not in use to prevent damage/flooding when the supply is restored. Ensure that you take the necessary steps, such as speaking to your insurer if possible, to mitigate potential damage and for fire prevention.
• When supply is restored, the water may appear to be cloudy from the extreme pressure reduction exercise. Please do not waste the initial water. Use it for flushing.
Water management devices are also being installed city-wide to limit excessive consumption.
Further restriction levels and usage targets will be announced at short notice and as necessary to drive down consumption to a safe level. Critical services such as clinics and hospitals will be largely unaffected. This phase is intended to help us avoid more extreme phases of the disaster plan.
Phases of the critical water shortages disaster plan
Phase 1: Activated: water rationing through extreme pressure reduction and limiting supply
Phase 2: Disaster restrictions (water collection points)
Phase 3: Full-scale disaster implementation (extreme rationing at distribution points)
Cape Town is situated in a water-scarce region. Climatic unpredictability, such as this protracted drought, must be seen as the New Normal which affects all aspects of our lives. In Cape Town, the Western Cape, and many other parts of South Africa, this severe drought continues.
Please visit www.capetown.gov.za/thinkwater for all further information required, including information on the Water By-law. We will only get through this together.
Let’s Save, Cape Town! Together.
Yours faithfully
Achmat Ebrahim

Posted on: 19-10-2017Good evening home owners,
As you are aware, we have encountered significant challenges with the migration to a new pre-paid electricity service provider. This migration was informed by future cost savings for individual home owners as well as the Body Corporate.
As per my previous message, we have called in various experts to assist us with this matter.
Yesterday evening, an urgent special trustee meeting was held to discuss the current situation.
Whereas the explanations given for the difficulties remain highly technical, inconsistent and vague at times, we have made a decision to appoint Ikapa Power Management to resolve the issue, as they provided plausible information and have physically demonstrated their ability to affect the migration allowing the purchase and usage of electricity.
We will continue to communicate to you the progress made in this regard, including any unused vouchers you might have purchased as well as bypassed meters, as from tomorrow 19 October 2017.
Regards,
Johnny Wijnen
Chairman

Posted on: 15-10-2017Hello all,
Further update on the electricity issues:
It has not been possible to connect the meters with the codes provided by PEC, the previous provider, despite various attempts made jointly between PEC, Ideal Prepaid and the meter manufacturer.
New codes have then been obtained from the meter manufacturer. This has also failed.
The meter manufacturer will be on site on Monday to attend to the matter.
Should anyone run out of electricity in the meantime, please contact Andre on 072 090 2024.
Our current focus is on resolving the issue. Once done, we will provide you with a comprehensive report.
Regards,
Johnny Wijnen

Posted on: 14-10-2017Regarding electricity:
1. One should treat very good offers with suspicion (it was to good to be true);
2. If something is working well, do not seek for a better option

Posted on: 14-10-2017I know Andre is doing his best, and there are problems, but it has now been 9 days I have been unable to get electricity. I am assured each day that success is imminent, but it's 5pm on day 9 and the meter is still not taking a pin. Am I the only one still waiting? This is really bad.

As eienaar is ek totaal in die duister en ontvang graag u terugvoer of trustee voorsitter terugvoer.Baie dankie

Posted on: 13-10-2017Hi Ek wil weet of PEC ook n 10% en 14% fooi gevat het op transaksies. Hibernian se krag is baie duurder per eenheid as ander plekke in die kaap. Dit beinvloed ons vakansieverhurings oongelooflik baie. Hoekom is die fooie so hoog. Vir R200 kry ek as als af is slegs 89 eenhede. Dis belaglik? Marina Koegelenberg

Posted on: 12-10-2017Hi Richard,
I'm in the same situation.
Please contact Andre should you run out. He'll provide a temporary solution.
We've been investigating the issue and the preliminary findings are that the problems are caused by the previous service provider cutting us off prematurely, without providing all the required information.
We will investigate further and get a full report.
We have changed service providers to achieve significant savings to the individual home owners as well as to the body corporate.
Having said that, it has been a frustrating change-over process so far to say the least. Everything possible is being done to resolve the issues ASAP.
Regards,
Johnny -

The change over from PEC to IDEAL will take place today.
Please see attached document for instructions on how to purchase electricity from IDEAL.
It is advisable to register for EFT or direct deposit online (see attached) as there is a 0% gateway fee of the face value on the transaction when using these channels.

Prepaid Electricity Notice
Posted on: 03-10-2017Good day Owners
The Hibernian Towers Body Corporate has invited several contractors to tender for the new prepaid electricity contract.
Ideal Prepaid has won the contract and 30 days' notice was given to PEC to cancel their services.
PEC has to issue new key change tokens to the new service provider and has started with the process. PEC has promised that all key change tokens will be available to the new service provider by end of day tomorrow, Wednesday, 4 October 2017.
Unfortunately, this has created some problems with owners not being able to buy electricity.
To buy electricity in the interim until the service has been transferred to the new service provider, you can contact Sarel at 079 317 5385 via sms to issue an electricity token for you. Please send him your meter number and he will send the token via sms back to you.
Apologies for any inconvenience caused.

Storm safety at Hibernian Towers
Posted on: 06-06-2017Good afternoon everyone, this is a request that all occupants secure their patio/balcony furniture during the storms which have been forecasted overnight and tomorrow. Also check that the drain on your external balcony is free of debris to ensure effective draining and prevent flooding
Thank you for your co-operation in this matter.
