Checking in
Once the resident arrives at the Walk-in Centre where the booking has been made, the booking reference number must be inserted on the touch screen terminal to receive their Queue Management System (QMS) ticket. The next available City consultant will then call the QMS number.
‘As a City, we need to be innovative and to move with the times so we improve our service delivery to residents. The new online booking system will assist with reducing waiting periods and is an excellent way for residents to avoid queues. Customers are able to make their appointment at the Table Bay Mall Walk-in Centre, City Civic Centre Motor Vehicle Registration and Licensing Office and the Civic Centre Walk-in Centre. The service will be introduced to more City Customer Offices across the metro by the end of September 2022.
‘We encourage residents to visit our website and to make use of our online booking system so that they avoid any long queues during the peak office periods. This is one of the ways in which the City is enhancing and streamlining its service offering to residents. We are constantly looking at new ways to improve customer experience and achieve greater efficiencies,’ said the City’s Mayoral Committee Member for Finance, Siseko Mbandezi.
It is important to note that bookings will only be valid from 15 minutes before and 15 minutes after the appointment time.
Bookings are automatically cancelled when the customer misses the 15 minute window.
