# The South African Federation of Trade Unions says it rejects the attempt to portray Eskom’s financial performance as an unqualified success. The power utility achieved roughly 30.35-billion-rand in profit for the 2026 financial year, more than doubling its 14-billion-rand profit the previous year. SAFTU’s Asive Dyani says Eskom’s profitability is a consequence of making […]
# Suid-Afrikaanse motoriste staal hulle vir nog ‘n skerp styging in brandstofpryse Woensdag. Petrolpryse gaan met ongeveer een-rand-34-sent per-liter styg, terwyl dieselpryse tot tussen twee-rand-93 en drie-rand-14 sent per-liter kan styg. Die stygings word aangedryf deur hoër internasionale oliepryse en ‘n swakker rand. Die jongste verhogings plaas verdere druk op huishoudelike begrotings en vervoerkoste.
# Cell C sê die afskaffing van vervaldatums vir mobiele data kan sy inkomstegroei raak omdat verbruikers minder data sal aankoop. Ongebruikte data verval vanaf Januarie volgende jaar nie meer nie, wat beskryf word as ‘n groot oorwinning vir verbruikers. Die nuwe reël beteken kliënte kan ongebruikte data onbeperk oordra, wat die einde maak aan […]

# Eskom het ‘n tweede agtereenvolgende winsgewende jaar aangeteken, met wins wat ná belasting meer as verdubbel het vanaf 14-miljard-rand verlede jaar tot 30,3-miljard-rand vanjaar. Uitvoerende hoof Dan Marokane sê verbeterde kragstasie-beskikbaarheid, strenger kostebeheer en verminderde dieselverbruik het die ommekeer ondersteun. Eskom se kostebestuursprogram het besparings en inkomste van 22,4-miljard-rand opgelewer. Marokane beklemtoon winste sal […]
# Cell-C says the end of the expiration of mobile date will slow its revenue growth, as consumers will buy less data. From January next year, unused mobile data will no longer expire, described as a major victory for consumers. The new rule means customers can carry over data indefinitely, ending the “use it or […]

The increases are being driven by higher international oil prices and a weaker rand. The latest hikes will add […]
