Jirama has a new opponent

Jirama
Jirama is the only one firm providing electricity and clean water up to now here in Madagascar. This firm has never had competitors in that business.
Now is the time for Jirama to make a revolution. That is far to be an ultimatum but just a reminder and an awakening to the real situation.
Because customers are not satisfied of the quality of the services, they will for sure look after some other alternatives. Among that, we have lots of ideas but not that much experience.
But when enough is more than enough, there is no way to keep on dealing with that bad service condition offered by Jirama. It is time to face the music.
For instance,
1-Jirama is supposed to inform his customers whenever he plans an outage. He can use whatever means of communication once it gets to the most of population’s hears.
Not long, we could have noticed shortage here and there in Antananarivo. But Jirama did not mind about getting his customers informed in advance. Even his web  page hasn’t got any information about that last.

2-Billing : I don’t know much about what is going on in their offices but if it was about computers, I would say that there should have been infected by viruses at list to give a fake calculation.
In a semester how could that be possible that you have to pay pretty the same amount each month when no one is home during holidays.
Dam as I am, I think that what they do is not that normal. I really wonder what those diploma holders are doing. Aren’t they supposed to do something right up there?
When you ask for explanation, that is what you get:
“We couldn’t take the consumption report during those last months and we just calculate the average of your monthly bill. That’s why you owe the Jirama this amount of money. In case you over pass the said amount, you have to quench the gap.”
The question you may wonder is I guess: And if the asked amount is too much compared with what I consume?
Here is the reply: “Then you pay what it asked first. Later on, we make the discount within the coming bill”
Hope they are not gonna get us.

That one is just a case among thousands. Here is another one.
You’re from home and receive a bill from Jirama. How surprising it to see that you owe more than the normal money to the Jirama.

The reason is just simple. By dint of reading the paper (I don’t wanna use the world bill since it doesn’t deserve it) you can understand that you are among those who didn’t pay the previous consumption.
Even more the two or the three last. Come now!
If you did pay the three last consumptions and you still get a paper from Jirama telling that you’ve got to pay those three months. Don’t lose your temper for that. That is the way they work. That’s obvious.
In case you need more info, don’t waste your time joining their offices; just bring the receipt proving that you’ve paid them already and period. In case you’ve thrown them away (that’s is your bad, they don’t care) you’ve to pay what is said on the paper in order to have a new receipt of payment. And that is the only one thing to do if you still want to have an energized household.
Here is a trick to forget that entire accountancy problems, vodka straight from the bottle.
I look myself being given a prize :-)

That’s all fluff! What makes me special is the following.
I do like giving my personal comments but I love finding some more solutions for things that are not good for my blood. I don’t like being juggled forever.
Guys, here is my question then. How can we get electrified without paying any money to the Jirama? (Or at least, the least of amount)
Feel free and realize yourself. I need your how know to get out of that dead lock.

You have an apple.
I have an apple.
We exchange our apples,
each of us still has an apple.

If I have an Idea,
and you have an Idea.
If we exchange our ideas,
we both will have two Ideas.

  1. It is a high time for the JIRAMA to have an opponent.
    You’re completely right talking about the quality of service. I AM NOT SATISFIED AT ALL.
    But it will be too late for them to react.

  2. Better late than never lol
    We shouldn’t be afraid of changes. Never give up.
    On our side, we can just do what we can.
    For example, applying tricks that can save your money.
    That way, you the client are the first competition.

  3. There were some tricks to steal jirama’s electricity but now it’s quite impossible because they have special equipements to detect any wires that don’t pass through the counter. Stealing is only good when you are not caught, so watch out :)

  4. “Stealing is only good when you are not caught, so watch out” Yep, that’s right. For that, we just need to know how they work and we do otherwise.
    Tthis page reminds me a thing: One day, I had a chat to person and he asked me this question: “Which entity is the smartest: Army, Engineer, Politician, Hackers or (some that I don’t remember).
    Can you guess which of those?
    Would you mind giving more details regarding that one :”now it’s quite impossible because they have special equipements to detect any wires that don’t pass through the counter.”

  5. recently; i have some poblems too about my bill. they supposed having done 4 deductions in a month! really, it’s amazing!
    so is it one of the defaults of this company or do someone try to embezzle?

  6. Here is a post from a reader, it is in Malagasy so I ‘ll let it as it is :
    Ny lesoka hita eo amin’ny orinasa Jirama,
    Tena maro tokoa ny lesoka sy olana izany hoe ny tsy tomombana ao
    amin’ny orinasa Jirama,
    tsy hay mihitsy na ny orinasa mihitsy no tsy mandray an-tanana ny
    andraikiny na ny mpiasa ao aminy no manao an-tsirambiny ny asa
    ankinina aminy
    Atao ahoana moa ny tsy itsikera sy himenomenona raha toa ka ny tena no
    asaina mandoa ny volan-jiro sy rano tsy nampiasaina?
    Sarotra ihany izany.
    Tato ato dia betsaka tokoa ireo nahazo taratasy fampandrenesana fa tsy
    nahaloa jiro nefa efa efa tanteraka izany.
    Raha dinihina anefa ny facture dia hita fa nisy ny hadosoana natao
    ankoatra ny recu efa am-pelatanana satria ny releveur dia voalaza fa
    nandalo inefatra tao antay volana iray. Dia ho nisy tokoa ve izany?
    hatramin’ny oviana no nisy izany hoe relever in 4?
    Nankaiza ary ilay vola nalohan’ny olona vidin’ny jiro efa ho 3 na 4 volana?
    Any an-kibon’iza?

    Tsara ny mampatsiahy fa tsy mahatonga lavitra akory ity fitiavan-kely
    ity ary tsarovy fa aleo manao ny marin hatrany.

    Malalaka marina ny lalana mankany amin’ny ratsy ary hetihety kokoa ny
    mankany amin’ny tsara.
    Mora marina ny manao ny ratsy e!??!

  7. Thank GOD Jirama has opponents and hope taxpayers’ money are not squandered. May God bless Malagasy people!!!
