WOW...

Is this for real? Or are you just joking? Its not April's fool day, you know that don't you?

As far as I am concerned, if this is true, Telkom cannot refuse a service to no one, unless there are strong enough grounds.

The so called "abuse" is controlled by Telkom themselves, if they are incapable or enforcing the conditions, which is this case, would be to cap us when we reach the "astronomical" 3GIG cap, then I think your title is more then appropriate.

lol, blacklisting? One would think this is a criminal offence in SA.

Try checking the other threads first before starting a new one. And your topic title doesn't really help either.

.geek with all due respect, some people do have lives.

I, for instance don't sit here and read all threads before I submit mine.

Thats what forums are all about, share ideas, praises and criticism when it comes to mind, or when something happens to you.

One word: search

It's really not that difficult.
 
But all the topics on it are so convoluted with .geek telling the poster that there is already a topic about it that none of them have an answer...
 
iMO the reason .geek is telling to search is to reduce the amount of duplicate threads on the forum and it doesn't get easier for them as the more fustrated a user becomes the more she / he wants to open a thread to vent but notso in this case and a good reason to check a thread over the same topic is there could be better explanations not found in the new ones ?

Anyways check the frontpage article Confusion regarding Telkom email warning to high-end ADSL users. Looks as if tk might have a security prob.

note i ain't taking sides here so please spare me :p :o



my guess is the thread with this issue would have appeared in the new posts link :)

one last thing is would you want Mr RPM to respond twice to the same topic :eek: ?
 
Hey. I quite liked the topic title :)
Frankly, if my isp sent me an email like that, I'd feel the same. Thank God I'm with WebAfrica. I don't think any real business would ever dream of sending their customers messages like that.
