Telkom soon not only option

Now it's 80% complete by 2011? What good is 80%? I'm just going to pay 80% of my taxes this year and we'll see if they're happy with a lousy 80%.

Perhaps we have misinterpreted all of the stuff goin down today.. If Neotel is granted access to the local loop in Jan 2008, that would be some good news.. Is this what they are trying to say??
 
Do they mean 80% bt 2011 meaning they start with Jo'Burg then go to Cape Town etc etc....So some of us may have access by end of January, and 80% of us by 2012

Anyway IBIWISI :p:D or IKITBTWIPL or whatever that other one was :)
 
There's just no pleasing people. Would you rather have 80% or 0%? I maintain that something is better than nothing.

Also, in light of the fact that an unbundling process can take up to 15 years, 2011 is a pretty ambitious deadline.

Could very well be, what with all the negativity we were exposed to.

Will digest all this over the weekend... and see what it boils down to...

It boils down to the consumer still getting screwed for the forseeable future, just stated in more polite language so they may have a glimmer of hope

Yeah confusion aplenty around at the moment. I cursed that woman this morning, but now I'm also just going to sit back and wait to see if the fog lifts and we can really see all of this as the beginning of some much needed positive news.
 
I am going to remain optimistic. From everything I've read today there is no reason to be otherwise.
 
hrm.. competition is gonna be tight between municipality and Neotel..

And I'm gonna be in that 20% :( that gets nada, so guess I'll never see good prices not being in the "most areas"
 
Really Hacked OFF

:mad: Competition, there is no ****ING competition. What I find so frustrating is that Mbeke says that Telkom needs to come to the party and then his ****ing Bitch does her own ****ing thing.

We will never have ****ING Competition in this country, it is just not possible, just when you think YAY, things are looking up, something happens, 2011, for **** sakes, this was suppsed to have happened ages ago.

What is the point, our country ****ed and it is not gonna change because money talks.

What is the point of having ICASA, they dont have any bite, and as for Telkom well, they are a law unto themselves and who is gonna stop them ?

:mad: :sick: :mad: :sick: :mad: :sick:
 
Although the anger of jeinnor30 may be questioned by some, I actually have to agree with that.

We were saying the exact same things at least five years ago :/
 
From early next year consumers will start to have a choice when it comes to picking a fixed-line phone company.
