Mr Pretorius who complained that the price of R199 applies to DSL 384 which was the “least broadband available”.

rofl. Wicked way to formulate it.

Almost as good as the "But I want to prejudice Telkom's case" line from Tommygun.

I wanted to bring Debbie2 and my father in to explain that they had been hardcapped but was told that that was trial by ambush and it would prejudice Telkoms case, I submitted that I wanted to prejudice Telkoms case.

I think ICASA should go to ASA for some training on how to deal with Telkom

Can't we vote for the ASA as a political party? They seem to be the only ones doing their work (apart from SARS, grrrr)

...and Telkom still genuinely believes that they have a wonderful product and that we are ungrateful bastards...
