    DStv adding Novelas+ to Access, Family, Compact, Compact Plus, and Premium packages

    No thanks. Even if they show Bold and the Beautiful or Young and Restless too much has happened. Dstv dropped the ball miserably in not getting those after SABC and ETV stopped airing them.

    Anybody signed up with Tymebank?

    I only logged in once a month to male a payment. I skipped one month and when logging in my password again didn't work. Resetting it I got told internet banking is no longer available. I keep getting their spam messages to move over to the new app but I'm afraid if I do I'll get locked out as HA...

    South Africa’s DA seeks move for Steenhuisen to DTI, Rapport says

    This potato-head logic again. A vote for any party means you're satisfied with the system.

    True amount in Vodacom settlement to Makate allegedly revealed

    Of course. The concept was already taking hold worldwide. I did a search but couldn't find where it originated as it was rather obvious at the time your phone service should include it in some form. Vodacom were idiots to promise anything and then credit him with the idea.

    Rotational blackouts in Johannesburg are still on the cards, and people have 30 days to change Eskom's mind

    Johannesburg is still largely a paper based system. They have the digital systems in place but don't use them and prefer paper as it facilitates corruption. Helen's first priority is changing that.

    True amount in Vodacom settlement to Makate allegedly revealed

    I'm not sure which CEO was at the helm when this started but Vodacom was always going to pay a hefty amount since legal proceedings started so not the current CEO's fault. I think their legal team did quite a good job of stretching this out and keeping the payout to a minimum.

    Why Starlink has not applied for a licence in South Africa

    Most probably they don't want to alienate anyone and jeopardise the process. That has been their strategy in every country they've launched in. It's only as a last resort when a regime is totalitarian with no hope of launching they'd forego this.

    Only one day? But on another note democracy has never worked in SA.

    AARTO national rollout starting in two weeks

    I think if challenged it won't hold much legal weight as the PO isn't abiding by its licensed mandate. Who would have thought that one party can mess things up so badly that it could place entire legal frameworks in jeopardy?

    Will they bring back Winston out of retirement?

    VALR co-founder and CEO argues that South Africa should abolish exchange controls and replace them with a modern framework

    More commonly called Apartheid era laws, they would not exist if it wasn't for Apartheid. Sure it didn't have anything to do with segregation but neither did our porn laws back then but it was still because of the thinking of the time.

    Even Mandela saw they were outdated. It's only the ANC that want to keep on looting couches that keep them alive.

    Amazon Prime launched for R59 per month in SA

    Normal price is $15 which in real terms is worth about R100. Some people can get it for about half the price. But you get cloud gaming and a bigger catalogue of movies and all the US products.
