Where has Telkom used Tax money? Citation please
 
Telkom doesn't get funding from government instead government is benefiting via Dividends, Telkom is sustainable on its own.

Eish, some people.
 
State owned implies that government owns shares in Telkom. Not that the government funds the company. The two are mutually exclusive.

You can be state owned, and profitable, just like you can be state-owned, and make a loss (like SAA) and require bailout money from your shareholder (Government).

The MyBB Fact Police rejects this bolded falsehood.

The other points raised are deemed acceptable.

Perhaps the "fact-police" would like to explain how -- 10Mbps is LTE speed

TELKOM :
delivering LTE speeds of 10Mbps and higher. ????????????

:( :sick:

Most people are 10Mbps and LOWER ( especially at certain times )
 
And where does the money come from that Gov invests in Telkom? Entirely from dividend profit?

"Telecommunications and Postal Services Minister Siyabonga Cwele was pleased that Telkom had performed steadily in the past four years, "especially given that there were suggestions that it be sold".

He said although the government would again receive a substantial dividend, which would go into the National Revenue Fund, "It is our view that we should start to reinvest a substantial amount in the rollout of a modern ICT infrastructure"."

If one looks at the Telkom shareholding: http://www.dtps.gov.za/portfolio-organisations/telkom/59-popular-topics-2.html , there are some clear under-performers and organs who are doing diddly squat in terms of their mandate and responsibility.

Where does the money come from to keep them propped up?...

By ensuring that Telkom remains their cash cow of course, and remains a monopoly as long as possible, by utilizing tricks such as mentioned in this article.

Most comments have been to the tune of "Telkom is a listed business, and Gov just get's dividends from their investment."

Well then, please show how a private listed company is allowed to operate, receiving share investment derived from taxpayer money, receive payments from state organs due to the hybrid investment/relationship structure ( http://www.infraco.co.za/CorpProfile/Document Library/Broadband Infraco Annual Report 2015.pdf ) and this same company enjoys monopolistic government protection?

We are not Telkom, so you should ask them. We can only concur that your statement about speed is correct.
