Telkom 'Dirty Tricks'

[rpm]

Hi guys

In yesterday’s “This Day” there was an article named “Dirty Tricks in store for Telkom competitor” written by Phillip de Wet. This article takes an interesting look at how traditional telephone monopolies compete against new incumbents.

“Telkom’s new competitor should expect all manner of dirty tricks when it launches, an industry watcher has cautioned. Operators throughout the world have managed to delay and frustrate new competitors, said Nick White, a vice chairman of the International Telecommunications Users Group, on Friday” This article goes on to describe some of these “dirty tricks. Well worth a read if you can get your hands on a copy.

I got in contact with this journalist, and they don’t seem to be scared of saying it like it is. I will forward some information about MyADSL to him for use in future articles.

Regards,

I work in the telecommunications sector, and in 2001. I witnessed some of the handywork from the Telkom Dirty Tricks department. It was a very very low blow. Unfortunately I cannot go into details as the matter was settled out of court due to its sensitivity. I am still in the employment of the company concerned as well, but let me say, Telkom are no fools when it comes to this kind of thing. [8]

That is definitely to be expected from the way Telkom operates. But Telkom must be very careful, all of their unhappy clients will be migrating over to the other side. And from the looks of the amount of unhappy clients, it will be a mass migration. I can't wait for the day.
