Taking on Telkom

I think RPM is the person behind the other guy.

In a country whose national sport is Telkom bashing, Muller and his followers represent a group of South African telecoms users who aren't sitting back and simply accepting the Telkom company line and those of other broadband providers.

Just beautiful :D
 
The other guy looks too geeky to be a business lecturer :)
 
Good article. The Telscum reply sucks, but what can you expect.
 
RPM on the left, Richard Frank of TAG on the right....
Excellent really.....

toady....
 
Hey it's a Fin24 article about....us! Great for MyADSL to get even more recognition.

...those who have felt the anger of the MyADSL community...

ROFLMAO :D

Muller - together with the other passionate "broadbanders" - has nurtured a community of people united by two things: their dislike of the way Telkom does business and their desire for high speed data connections.
....
Reading the MyADSL forums will provide the clearest view of how deep the anti-Telkom feeling goes in the broadband community. Many regular contributors have signatures at the bottom of their comments, which slate Telkom on a number of issues.

In fact, when Telkom approached MyADSL to advertise on the site, members of the community voted not to accept the ad, says Muller.

That last bit almost brought a tear to my eyes!

And in retrospect I'm personally happy that forumites gave Telkodemonopolies the middle finger & told the beast to bog-off with its false advertising :p - even though I was open to the idea of reclaiming some money from the beast to fund the enormous local hosting [bandwidth] fees :o.

Can't remember what my position was at the time. Amazing the perspective one gets with hindsight, hey? I remember it seeming like a difficult issue at the time, but now there's no question that rejecting Telkom's advertising offer was definitely the best decision for MyADSL.

I was also quite looking forward to the possibility of reporting every single Telkodemonopolies advert to ASASA as a result of the beast's false & misleading advertising :D.
