Colenso is in the uThukela district of KwaZulu-Natal. Its power station was decommissioned decades ago.
We could not confirm an official website for an organisation trading under this name, so no number is published here. An unverified number sends people to whoever happens to answer it, which is exactly the mechanism behind contact-detail fraud.
A decommissioned power station has no operational contact route. Supply questions in the area go to the municipality or to Eskom, depending on who bills the property.
This page covers how to contact Colenso Power Station in South Africa. The details below were taken from the official Colenso Power Station contact page rather than from any third-party directory.
ContactDetails.co.za is an independent directory. We are not Colenso Power Station and cannot act on your behalf. Everything on this page is a routing aid so you reach the right official channel quickly.
Colenso Power Station contact numbers
We could not identify an official source for an organisation trading under this name. There is no website we could confirm belongs to it, so there was nothing official to read a contact number from.
We have deliberately not published a number here. An unverified number is worse than none: it sends people to whoever happens to answer it, which is exactly the mechanism behind contact-detail scams.
Self-service options before you call
- Check the organisation’s own official website, which carries the current contact details.
- Calling outside peak times. Monday mornings and the hour after 17:00 are usually the worst for South African contact centres.
What to have ready before you call
- A clear one line summary of what you need resolved.
- Your account, order or reference number if you already have one.
- The identity document or account holder details, since most South African providers verify who you are before discussing an account.
- Dates, amounts and any error message exactly as it appeared.
- A pen and paper for the reference number. Ask for one every time, because without it a follow up call starts from nothing.
Applying for a protection order
- It is free and no lawyer is needed. The clerk of the domestic violence court assists with the forms, and an interim order can be granted the same day.
- Bring whatever evidence exists. Photographs, messages, a medical report, the name of anyone who witnessed an incident. The order is decided on what the court is shown.
- The order is served by the sheriff or the police, and it takes effect once served. Keep a certified copy and the warrant of arrest that comes with it.
- A breach is a criminal offence. If the order is breached, phone the police and produce the order and the warrant; an arrest can follow immediately.
- A return date is set for the final order, and both parties may be heard. Attend it, because an interim order can lapse if the applicant does not appear.
Domestic violence includes physical, sexual, emotional, verbal and economic abuse, as well as stalking and harassment, and an order is available to anyone in a domestic relationship, which is defined broadly.
Complaints and escalation
If a first call does not resolve the matter, escalate through the department’s own call centre, keeping the reference number. Unresolved complaints about a government department go to the Public Protector on 0800 11 20 40, free of charge, and the Presidential Hotline on 17737 takes service delivery complaints.
Keep a short written log of each contact: the date, the channel you used, the name of the agent and the reference number. Most government complaint processes ask for exactly that history, and having it ready is usually the difference between a fast resolution and starting over.
Avoiding fake Colenso Power Station contact numbers
Contact details for well known South African brands are a common target for impersonation. Numbers that look official appear in search ads, social media replies and cloned websites, and the person answering is not Colenso Power Station.
- Reach Colenso Power Station through the official site at its official website rather than through a number in a search advert or a social media reply.
- Colenso Power Station will never ask you for your full card number, PIN, CVV, online banking password or a one time PIN. Nobody legitimate needs those to help you.
- Treat any caller who creates urgency, asks you to install remote access software, or asks you to move money to a safe account as fraudulent, and end the call.
- If you are unsure whether a call was genuine, hang up and dial the official number yourself rather than calling back a number the caller gave you.

Frequently asked questions
What is the Colenso Power Station contact number?
We do not publish one, because we could not confirm a number on an official source. Numbers do circulate on directory sites, and we do not republish those.
How do I know a Colenso Power Station number is genuine?
Check it against the official site at its official website. A number that only appears in a search advert, a social media reply or a third-party directory should not be trusted for anything involving your account, your money or your identity document.
What should I do if nobody resolves my query?
Ask for the complaint reference and the escalation path on your first call, then follow the escalation route described above. Keep the dates, agent names and reference numbers, because every formal complaint process will ask for them.
Can ContactDetails.co.za resolve this for me?
No. We are an independent directory, not Colenso Power Station, and we have no access to your account. Everything here is a routing aid so that you reach the correct official channel with the right information in hand.
Is there a cost to calling these numbers?
South African 0860 and 0861 numbers are charged at a share-call or standard rate depending on your provider, and 0800 numbers are toll free from a landline. Calls from a mobile are billed at your own operator’s rate, so check your plan if cost matters.
