Unauthorised Deductions on Grants.

Loading player...
Mr. Michael Mathe from SASSA returns to clarify legality around unauthorised deductions from social grants. Legal Framework:
SASSA permits only approved deductions via signed affidavits—funeral policies (max R350/grant), bank fees, approved loans. Unauthorised deductions (airtime, loans without consent, excessive fees) violate Regulation 21A; beneficiaries can block via SASSA helpline 0800 60 10 11.
Resolution Steps:
Visit SASSA office with ID, grant pin—demand full refund within 30 days.
Report via WhatsApp 082 046 8553 or email complaints@sassa.gov.za.
New SASSA card activation stops repeat violations. Mr. Mathe warns: 1.8 million grants affected monthly; know your rights, protect your grant!
