<font size="1"><i>Once a customer exceeds the 3 Gigabyte volume limit for the month <font color="red">his</font id="red"> international traffic will be transported over a slower international link without affecting <font color="red">his</font id="red"> local access. <font color="red">He</font id="red"> will experience slower access speeds on the alternate international link, as <font color="red">he</font id="red"> will then be sharing this link with all other customers who exceed the 3 Giga byte cap. </i></font id="size1">************************************************** *******************
Notice that ONLY 'He' will be affected, guess 'She' is OK?
Just thought I'd bring a smile to your faces.

A suggestion to Telkom...

The singular use of "they" is more common than many people think and has been around since at least the 14th century.
