adminto allow selected vendors to log on to the Zesa computer system and sell coupons within their shops.
Though the company had flighted adverts alerting consumers of the break from April 27-29, a significant number had to endure a dark episode after they ran out of power.
“I am thankful that the system is up and running. It has been two black days for me and my family as I was unaware of the unavailability of the coupons over the weekend,” said
Mr Marko Tapera who lives in the Avenues area.
Some consumers welcomed the vending system.
“I cannot wait to have the coupons become more accessible. Such decentralisation of services by the national power supplier is welcome,” said Mrs Forgiveness Mhira of Glen Norah.
The new system would not mean the purchase of coupons from street vendors, but garages, major retail shops and banking halls as authorised by Zesa.
