It's true I tells ya! We ordered an ADSL line in CT on monday and it's installed this morning. Scary stuff that.
 
Sure sounds like Telkom CT has their installation process down.

What is JHB doing wrong??
 
I have a friend in CT who got his line in about 2 weeks, and he reckons he knows a bunch of people there who got theirs in about the same time or shorter. In fact, he and I applied for our lines on the same day, 27th of Feb. He got his within two weeks, I got mine two weeks ago...
Damn, but it sucks to live in Jhb...
 
I have to say that Telkom installs very quick in Cape Town.

I still would like to have a poll on the average install times per major city.
 
I live in CT. I applied on 1 August and it was installed on 21 August and then became operational on 22 August.
 
Yup, most people i heard in Cpt southern suburbs go very fast lately. northern ones take longer?
 
im in northern suburbs and mine took 13 days... I love CT. Too bad im in Jozi at the moment.
 
mine took 6days.. ordered on monday. got it on saturday
 
Mine took 2 months (but it really only took 1 month, the order got stuck in JHB, never left the offices) - Yeah, I know shouldnt have ordered over the phone.

Anyways, Durbanbille, CT - 55 Days
 
I HATE YOU ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Applied over a month ago - I am stuck in a port project.
 
Telkom installed ADSL at a friend's house in mid july. ADSL line still doesnt work because they are 'awaiting activation'. Takes them a month to do this.
 
cape town

They transferred my line with ADSL within 1 and a half weeks.

Come live in Cape Town! Johannesburg is much too slow... and they can't drive for **** either ;)
 
Damn! That's fast! I'm still going to order a line...can only hope they'll install it that quick! I'm in Pretoria...anybody had a good installation time?
 
Have to say I had no problems with my install - actually happened months before they said it might be available in my area. I guess everyone in my area requesting helped. Odd how are only a few people using it after all that initial interest. ;)
