This is just crazy. Why do some people get their lines in 2 weeks, and other wait 8 months for it? Oh wait, I forgot.... we're talking about Telkom....

I walked int a Telkom office on a Thursday, placed the order, and had it installed and running by the following Wednesday. So, I don't have much reason to moan about that, sorry to those that do have to wait.

A quicker way is to visit the Telkom shop in your area and apply there, it is much faster than applying online...If you look at some of the posts on the forum you will see that those are the best results...Also you can ask them about 'Self Install' I think you save on the installation charges and you'll get your ADSL a lot faster...TRY IT!:)
Reason I waited so long is because I'm in the sticks...
