This is shocking

Hey guys - this is SHOCKING!! t31k0m are using references to this site to sell their products...

http://www.telkom.co.za/portal/page...RL=/pls/portal/docs/page/news/article_768.jsp

Check it out - quoting the fact that MyADSL users voted it the best value service... hmmmm...

Then again, maybe some people will come here and see what we all think of t31k0m :-D

But teklom is currently the best value service.
No way around that (for now).
Power to the people.

Lies, damn lies and statistics.

They fail to mention that MyADSL found ALL of the services overpriced.

 

[MaD]

They're not supporters of the site but they use its endorsement of their products when it suits them.

Double standards deluxe. I'm sure MyADSL does not endorse ADSL - especially at current prices - the research was simply to see what is smallest ripoff of the services available.

No doubt it wasn't intended for Telkom to use it as marketing gumph. I take offense to the fact that they actually refer to it.. they have no morals do they

rpm - possibly for the next test results, a legal disclaimer indicating that companies should consult yourself for rates of using the results in press releases ?

I guess Melkhom have already got thier mileage out of it - thier marketing division is on the ball as always !

 

[Clipse]

no not for the next, just add that to ur results and get in contact with Telkom with legal steps or bill.

This is bull**** and its still your(yes only you) intellectual property they are making use of to market their products.

BASTIDSSSS

I said this was going to happen ... behold my prediction hath come true.

RPM this needs to be brought under control! Quickly ...

LOL this is amusing - all day I've been wondering what this thread was about on the New Posts list - but have only now decided to check it out.

As to my opinion, hmmm I slammed WBS at one point for telling a white lie about one of the main page polls... Thw question I have is whether Telkomonopoly were referring to that same poll??? or was it the BBRJan05? If the poll - last I checked iBurst had actually overtaken HomeDSL384, not sure what it says now ~7days later. If it was the BBRJan05 then Telkomonopoly are merely using a finding in favour of HomeDSL384 to their own marketing advantage.

It is probably a good idea to include a disclaimer & legal gumf (help from dominic & other legal eagles...?) that precludes referring to & distributing the MyADSL Broadband Ratings Reports without actually distributing the report in its entirety & without modification.
