On 28 April we advised our customers that our 30GB &quot;All You Can Eat&quot; ADSL accounts would be ending on 31 May as a result of our existing contract with our wholesale service provider expiring in May,\u201d Dotco announced.<\/font> <\/p>\n<p><font size=\"2\">As the disputed agreement between Dotco and Telkom comes to an end in May the two parties had little to gain from pursuing the issue further. <\/font><\/p>\n<p><font size=\"2\">Telkom\u2019s public image took a severe knock after the well publicized Hellkom case, and the monopoly may have wisely decided to settle this matter rather than blemish their image with another public skirmish.
