Consumers speak out for Telecoms change

Electronic copy would be good.

I've got my (3) copies of the ad. I just love my name at the bottom :D

Edit: this doesn't do the ad justice but here you go (And it was taken with my cell camera - uggh) - link removed

From Below: far better

I really, REALLY hope this ad makes a difference.
I hope the Government and other influential powers don't do what the always do and try to ignore something until it goes away
 
Do u u really think the government will want to make a change?
By decreasing prices, Telkom makes a smaller profit, but also pays less tax...
 
Thanks for the pic of the add....just sent it to my entire mailing list with a little note....

Guys,

Please pass this on to whoever you have in your mailing list to highlight the high telecommunication costs in SA and the way in which Telkom, ICASA and the Department of Communication is ripping us off as consumers and stifling business growth in the country.

This add is flighted today (19 January 2007) in the Mail & Guardian and paid for entirely by a private individuals pledging money towards it (see all their names at the bottom of the add). The more awareness created the better for all.

This is about raising awareness....It's called standing up (raising up the people) and helping the ball role quicker.

You can sit back and hope a single add will make a difference and let Telkom, Gauvament and DOC rape you a bigger A-hole, but I'd prefer to help get this thing momentum!

Eish... must say, was also a bit dissapointed about the "layout and design"

The advert, which is almost certainly the first of its kind in South Africa, was designed by Johannesburg ad agencies Da Vinci Edison Bell and Peppermint.

Still give the add 10 out of 10 :-)
 
The spread firefox ad that this campaign is based on is a lot better designed, and a lot more eye catching - Wikipedia linky.

I am very disappointed! Is this the best that a "design company" can come up with? The message is very good though
