Customers should please switch to emailed accounts before 31 December 2025 by sending their account number and email address to the email and SMS channels provided. Customers who have their email addresses and phone numbers on the system, but aren’t signed up for emailed accounts, may receive an SMS soon.</p> | <span><p>‘We are on a mission to reduce the number of accounts, both residential and commercial, which are printed and sent via the South African Postal Service. All residents need to do is send an email or SMS with both their account number and email address to request an emailed account before 31 December 2025. It’s quick and easy, and residents can enjoy the convenience of their account being sent directly to their inbox.<br> <br>‘And if residents don’t have an email address, there’s no need to worry. The City will ensure that all account holders with no email access will still receive their account. They, or a loved one, are advised to contact the City’s Call Centre so we can assist them. <br></p>
