Massive victory for Please Call Me idea-man against Vodacom: report

Wow... I wonder if they will settle.

I doubt they would give him 67 big ones but perhaps 10 mill will get him off their backs

A billionaire? :rolleyes: Think the figure is around 6 mill which is probably a tiny cut for an idea Voda has probably made literal billions off.

I don't think that will do, remember the lawyers who represented him will also want / get their cut and they have invested a lot of time and money on this case.

If only Vodacom settled this out of court long time ago.

Yes, they should have thrown him some change ages ago.

Correct. Lawyers get +\-10% of the payout. That's why this kept going!
