Well as the owner of Internet Solutions, I would expect nothing less.

All I say to D-DATA is... when I worked for YOU (DI-DATA) I was just a number!!! So I take what you say with a "pinch of salt"!!!
At least DiData is raising the issue even though it is muted. Perhaps the steady growth of IS customers since Nov. 1 is bolstering its coffers for further capex. I just wish that a 10gig IS account will drop to same price as SAIX. Then more customers will join IS.

I used to work for them too. In fact, I used to love my career as a software developer until I spent 18 long months losing my soul piece by piece. I finally left them on the verge of losing my sanity as well and am now happily on my way to a Chemistry PhD.
I hate them almost as much as I hate Telkom.
Seems the general sentiment is that it's a nightmare working for D-Data 
The following is rediculously off topic but just gotta say it:
Why do some companies insist on being pricks.. like they're better than others
I deal with just about every IT Distributor in SA but one particular one will not allow customers with business savings accounts to open a purchasing account, only cheque...
WTF... What does it matter??
HTF uses cheques these days anyways, and why should I open a stupid cheque account with 0% interrest and even more rediculous bank charges just to make a dumb supplier happy?
