# Eskom’s grace period for zero buyers to regularise accounts concludes today. Customers must settle tamper fines and address meter issues to restore electricity without added charges. Following this deadline, Eskom will intensify audits and issue penalties up to 12-thousand-rand for non-compliance. Customers are urged to act promptly to avoid penalties and service disruptions. Eskom spokesperson Daphne Mokwena highlights available payment support and encourages eligible households to apply for the Free Basic Electricity grant through local municipalities:
