5 days now without electricity

On the 07th March 2013 (Thursday) night there was lightning at the village and the power went off around 12 midnight then on the 08th March (Friday) at around 12am i reported to eskom they promised to attend to the fault but they did not, lately they sent a confirmation sms that the power should be on and if it is not i should phone again i never phoned because i thought they were going to fix until sunset, we slept without electricity and Saturday morning around 7 i phoned the call center and they said the same story again, they told me to wait 2 to 6 hours and that is what i did after those hours i got a confirmation sms notifying me that the power should be on and if not i should phone again, the power was still off and i phoned again around 12 they told me the same thing over and over again and was so patient, last time i phoned was around 4pm afternoon when i heard the same circus again and that when i started to be angry and giving up on trying to phone, I had ran out of airtime and all our phones at home were dear because of flat batteries, I lost hope and decided to report it to helopeter today.
