In fear of highjacking the thread containing LG's well written and verbally expressive (explosive) letter, I'd rather continue with some of the remarks made later, in this thread. Also included that of Scarface. [}:)]
Sentech:
1. Doesn't provide service as promised
2. Throttling of bandwidth
3. A lot of customers are unhappy
4. Can't select tower
5. 3 nodes per tower, can't select
6. Will sue if name+sucks is used by client for website, might loose clients
7. Towers goes up and down all the time
8. Bundled package - hardware yours after 2 years
9. 12/24 month contract that you can't get out of
10. 7 day return policy
11. Limited availability in Jhb, Pta, Dbn, Cpt
12. People can object to the erection of a new tower
13. Definitely embarrasing to admit that you make use of them
14. Implied that an unhappy customer resorted to blackmail
15. High contention ratios
16. Can't assist you over the phone
17. Will test your signal for a fee
18. Bigger antenna will increase signal quality, but not thruput
19. S-N-L is important
20. They screw their clients


Pro's
1. Provide service as promised
2. Fondling of bandwidth
3. Most customers happy
4. Unlimited selection of towers
5. 3 nodes per tower, selectable
6. Quite happy if name+sucks is used by client for website, will gain clients
7. Towers goes up and down all the time
8. Unbundled Package - you must supply the hardware
9. No contract, pay as you go (or come)
10. No return policy
11. Country wide (almost made a little spelling mistake there)
12. Erections are welcome
13. Could be embarrasing to admit that you make use of them
14. Could be accused of blackmailing customers
15. Low contention ratios - Usually a maximum of 3 connected to the same tower, 1 per node
16. Phone assistance an option
17. Signal testing not allowed
18. Bigger antenna will increase thruput, but not signal quality
19. S&M is an option
20. They screw their clients
 
What scares me is that you guys actually KNOW this... no wonder you never have money! [;)]

Why do you have to "put your two cents in"... but it's only a "penny for your thoughts"? Where's that extra penny going to?

Are we talking about the 1st [:(!] or 2nd [:I] group ? [:D][;)]

<br />Hehe. Nice summary Luke [:)] Put a smile on my face, for the first time today.

Glad to be able to return the favour. We all need something to smile at every now & then
 
Luke, I don't know hey, both screw you for your money, so I guess you have the lesser of two evils. However, the 2nd group would be cheaper for me atm. I'm seriously contemplating getting ADSL, but then I have to buy another house so I can install the ADSL into it.... seems too much trouble

Why do you have to "put your two cents in"... but it's only a "penny for your thoughts"? Where's that extra penny going to?
 
Applied for ADSL 18 months ago, after I've moved to an ADSL enabled exchange (not on purpose though), only to find that there's this tiny piece of fibre between me and the exchange. Until Telkom puts a mimi-DSLAM(?) in this box on the corner, I'm screwed
 
Luke...."S-N-L is important"

Whip me baby, whip me!

For the the second group, you can even save up your money, and get yourself a buy one and get one free type situation ;)
 
Scarface, I originally thought about making that one S-N-M, to tie up (pun intended) with the 2nd group, since it feels like we are Sentech's whipping boys and enjoying the pain that comes with it [:)]

TrXtr, it's never free...

or so I hear [:)]
 
Luke, can we get a Pic of Dr Potgieter and put her in a Dominatrix Leather suit with a caption "Bend over sucker or I'll rip your bolls off!"

or "Cough for the Doctor"
