10210 background song

[charlieharper]

Came across this video on youtube and the background song immediately threw me back around 15 years - I was 12 - when our ADSL went down and I had to report fault / get ports refreshed, often waiting for an hour, listening to that song in the background. Wouldn't say I miss those days, blessed with Openserve Fibre, but it does bring back a sense of nostalgia.

Awful music. So many hours spent listening to this.

Telkom had a few from 2010 to present. The current one is pretty boring.
Wish one could find the ones from the early 2010’s

This one was certainly the most iconic one along with Toto-Africa on Vodacom 111 back in the day.

Brings back memories of making reverse charge calls or "collect calls" via 10131.

Brought a tear to my eye, the good old days

Wow that takes me back.
"Please can you do a port refresh for me?"

"Please can you do a port refresh for me?"

More like "Sorry sir, what is a port refresh?"

More like "Sorry sir, what is a port refresh?" ... (FTFY)

^ 10210 memories might be even fonder if they'd played this ...

I was curious about the song.

So I watched 3 seconds of the video in the middle

Now having PTSD flashbacks. 0/10 do not recommend.

In a previous lifetime I oversaw the IT infrastructure for the office. The amount of time I had to phone that stupid company, while holding on for a competent person to assist with our ADSL line/s...

Ya, while it is a trip down memory lane it is a forgettable one.

Also, while I am no composer that song is objectively awful.

The number of hours I endured this ear rape accompanied by my own ad lib mental lyrics directed at Telkom. Ohhh, enough to make a rapper blush it was...

Good advert.

Some IT guys would make this their ringtone just to irritate everyone around them.

LOL. That's a good one. I used to make the Champions League theme song my ring tone and it seemed to make people laugh more than annoy them but that is a good idea.
