Should we accept what Telkom is doing

[dd1313]

Hi GUys

Considering most of us cannot survive without ADSL, lets all put our thoughts together on how we can put pressure on Telkom,anything goes,

You never know someone can come up with a beautiful idea and we can implement it without hurting ourselves that much

IF WE DO NOTHING, THEY WILL ALWAYS DO SOMETHING CAUSE WE DO NOTHING !!!

I've lodged a complaint with the Advertising Standards Bureau about Telscum's false advertising - I hope it helps.

I've also emailed ICASA for what that's worth.

TBH I'm not really what else, I, as an individual can do. Suggestions?

I think I'll have to vote no on this one...

Cancel your phone line and switch over to GPRS/EDGE/3G, the prices are not looking that much higher anymore.

cancel or pay more for way, way less

Oy, can of worms that one - you're starting at about R500/m for 1Gb and R500/GB thereafter, and you're bound into a contract, so it's not suitable for an "abuser"

While it won't replace my ADSL, I can't wait to get my hands on the new 3G Sony Ericsson W900i when I renew my contract next year . .
