AI Review Summary
Based on recent customer reviews, Grid Control Technologies (GCT) is facing significant dissatisfaction from tenants and homeowners across various residential developments. Customers consistently mention concerns about inflated electricity and water charges, rapidly depleting prepaid balances, and meter readings that appear inaccurate. A recurring theme is frustration with unresponsive support channels, including delayed WhatsApp and email replies, alongside perceived rudeness from staff. Many feel trapped by exclusive supplier arrangements with their landlords or developers, and express that explanations for unusual deductions are either unclear or absent, eroding trust in the billing system.

*****s and ****mers
This company doesn’t deserve even a one star, all of sudden my electricity bill is R1000 more. No idea how they’re taking R300 just overnight I haven’t even passed 12 hours after topping up and they eat the money. The amount shown per unit is almost double within a couple of weeks

GCT LITERALLY ****MED ME OUT OF MY ELECTRICITY
These guys are ****mers! They literally just decided to take my entire electricity units (R374) for no reason, then try to claim it was for water and municipal charges. I GET CHARGES OVER R1300 EVERY MONTH FOR THESE CHARGES!! Worst part is I consciously tried to save electricity this month, by only using gas stove, only washed laundry once this month and even mostly using my laptop on battery mode. Just for them to decide "NO WE FEEL LIKE YOU DIDNT USE ENOUGH ELECTRICITY"

East on 82
Gct system for electricity and water is the worst system created ever, I don't understand why Rental places use their system for tenants. A Month for just electricity where we rent is literally R2000, we pay more then what a person for electricity should be paying. It's not even a full house, their system is a ****, the charges are ridiculous every time u load light u are charged just for loading. Many of us from East on 82 Rental Apartments are forced to switch of of our geysers to try save electricity but still we pay alot of money. Worse wors system ever for electricity we are being ******. When I first moved here in 2021 for the whole month it was R1000 it's 2025 and it's 1000 more. And my family we only just 3. This is the reason that makes people move out of this place. I would not recommend companies to use GCT control for electricity
