Telkom to remove line rental for ADSL

Wait a minute....just the line item is going away? Are they going to increase adsl prices to cover that revenue loss?

I guess moving people to LTE will eradicate the need for line rental.
 
As in no longer having to pay R189 on top of DSL rental?

Telkom have been quite aggressive with their LTE marketing calls the past few weeks.

I don't think there is any line rental associated with FTTH either. LTE is starting to look attractive to me.
 
No it will simply be included in your DSL rental. No more 2 line items. Not sure what it means if you have your DSL line with another ISP.

They (Openserve) will increase the wholesale DSL line cost to all ISPs. The ISPs (Telkom included) will have to determine what they will charge to their customers.
 
Now just remove the voice part as well and just give us the adsl that we seek!
 
Very soon, in your own household, your bill will no longer have “line”
Hopefully my interpretation of very soon, meaning July 1st, 2016 isn't asking too much. ;)
