Icasa report bound to deflate Telkom clients

ICASA = appointed by govt
Telkom = owned by govt
Telkom = regulated by ICASA
thus
South Africans = ROBBED/SCREWED/RIPPED OFF by govt
 
Yep this pretty much confirms that Telkom is untouchable and have people in very high places looking out for them.
 
Ahhh

You know reading these 2 ICSA(or whateva) :p has put me is a $%#^&% bad mood :mad: WTFU people :mad:

2 years or more & what have they achieved, really how frikken useless. Can't someone intravene as they are clearly not doing their job whilst we all pay for these clowns 2 sit back, drink coffee or actually prob brandy & they come up with stuff like this after 2 years.

Whateva, just whateva :mad:
 
Grrrrr!!!!

Within the first few seconds of reading this article, I knew that something smells funny.

Telkom argued that a monthly rental was needed to compensate for losses incurred in providing basic copper lines and to pay for maintenance and upgrades.

Basic copper lines that the South African population paid for already!!!!!! :mad: And now, whenever anybody says bandwidth prices are high, they will say "but ICASA said that it isnt!"

GRRRRRRR!
 
This entire thing is a complete indictment on the uselessness of ICASA. Two years and they produce five pages of regulations, most of which is little changed from the draft regulations published a year ago. People on this forum could write better and more detailed regulations in an afternoon.
 
Isn't there an e-mail address/phone number we can spam with our complaints about what an atrocity this is and that they're clearly in bed with Telkom?
 
when Telkom finally handed over its accounts showing how much it actually cost to provide each service

This is the problem. They should have been given a fixed deadline and if they didn't deliver by then the prices should have just been fixed arbitrarily by the regulator.
 
The first time ICASA put that big whistleblower link on their website I immediately used it to report them for being in bed with Telkom. Some more time I wasted on those corrupt bastards.

Whistleblowing in this country means jack ****.
