CZI has in the past few days received numerous complaints about TelOne bills with some having been disconnected. We would like to advise members that in our last engagement with Post and Telecommunications Regulatory Authority of Zimbabwe (POTRAZ), we were advised of the following:
· The average charge per unit is US7c, this is the amount which apply for all TelOne bills
· TelOne had no authority to charge in Foreign Currency until the end of January 2009. This therefore implies that only bills from February 2009 can be paid in foreign currency.
· CZI has made it clear in its engagement with various utilities that retrospective billing will not be tolerated.
You are therefore advised to ensure that your TelOne bills are in line with the indicated rate per unit. If you are having any issues with your bills, please see Ms. Makwangwaidze at TelOne offices, Conner Julius Nyerere and Nelson Mandela Avenue.
For those outside Harare we will be advising you of the contact people in all major cities in due course.
If you fail to reach an understanding with TelOne, please contact CZI offices for further assistance.


On ZESA Bills
