Telkom’s in hot seat over ADSL Regulations

 

[Debbie]

In a recent press statement ICASA announced that the Complaints and Compliance Committee (CCC) will hold hearings on 24, 25 and 26th October 2007.

Typical - 26th is same date as telkom agm. rpm we need to talk re this- have you been in contact with tommygun? He's asked me to (partially) represent to icasa on this.

 

[ld13]

Only now? ICASA took their time with this!

 

[acidrain]

why do i have this funny feeling that nothing will come of this

Thanks for the support.

 

[supersunbird]

Thanks for the support.

Hey, we support you, but realistically, when has ICASA EVER done anything against Telkom?

 

[acidrain]

Thanks for the support.

im just being realistic, rather expect the worst than have my hopes shattered like the countless other times

Sorry, bitch mode came out there.

Is always best to go in with a positive attitude, because without such there is no passion, and a lack of passion is deadly. Sorry acidrain, didnt mean to be as bitchy as i came across as.

 

[acidrain]

It's quite alright

 

[krycor]

i'll bet they say a change is due in nov so bleh and as per usual icasa will accept this excuse.

Give them stick Debbie. You show them.
MyADSL is behind you 100%.

 

[bekdik]

Make that 101%

 

[Sneeky]

ICASA: Wooth Woooth (sound of toothless dog barking) Naughty TELKOM.
TELKOM: We know, but our system does not allow us to blah blah blah.
ICASA: Naughty naughty, lets review your progress in say 6 months while you continue to screw the public. (humps TELKOM's leg)

Soz, it's all a bit of a joke really.

 

[acidrain]

MyADSL is behind you 100%.

Can we maybe confirm this with a poll?

 

[Ekhaatvensters]

Can we maybe confirm this with a poll?

Why wouldn't anyone be?

 

[Gatecrasher]

Telkom will say distinguishing local from international is not possible, too complex and they will lose money.
Same old story.

Except that these hearings are about Telkom's non-compliance with the regulations. The regulations are already law. They are no longer open to debate.

 

[Glordit]

High Prices
Capping
Slow Speeds
Bad service

Oh, WHERE THE HELL IS THE "LOCAL" BANDWITH?? or is that too complex for thier tiny brains...

What more is there to say to them?

 

[Glordit]

Unless Ivy has something to do with it...

Then why is ICASA having hearings if it's already law and not imposing fines on Telkom?
