With this kind of publicity Mweb's telephone crap is gonna be huge.

http://www.mybroadband.co.za/nephp/?m=show&id=3190If I were an MWeb customer, and had an 0877 number, I would take great delight in giving out this 0877 number to Telkodemonopolies whenever the agents of the de facto monopolistic beast asked for a telephone number that they could contact me on - 'sorry the number you have dialled has been blocked by your CEO, Papi Moletsane...please pretend to be customer-centric, the shareholders appreciate the illusion that we aren't losing loads of customers...'

Excellent idea. Let's all do it.

This was supposed to have been implemented years ago.

Yup Noxibox, you're right. I can't remember the exact year it was originally sposed to be implemented, but it was a good few number of years ago.

Other things that were supposed to come into force many years ago:
- Cell C
- SNO
- LLU
- e-Rate
- New productivity factor in price cap regime
- Potential forth and fifth cellular operators
- Potential third national operator
- Completion of tariff rebalancing
- Telkom submission of COA/CAM to ICASA
- etc etc etc

Well, the list is endless. Hopefully a small percentage will be implemented when we near the national elections. It seems to be a trend these days to win some votes.

getting a mweb voip number does sound like a good idea!

It might do if you could actually call it from a SA landline/Cellphone - but ya cant. You also need to have a adsl account from mweb which means you've already got a landline.

Too early to be of any real value IMO.

true true. you would obly score if you phone outa country a lot.i wonder if it would be cheaper phoning with mweb out of country and route it back into country to say local land line?
