DA clashes with Telkom

ADSL South Africa (Broadband South Africa), 7 October 2007

The DA or Democratic Alliance has clashed with Telkom over Telkom’s alleged failure to fix a fault in the DA’s broadband connection within an acceptable time frame. An allegation Telkom denies.

ADSL South Africa (Broadband South Africa) has no great love for politicians or Telkom that’s why we find it entertaining that the DA and Telkom are now at loggerheads over a couple of hours. This remind us of a Sterkinekor poster, like in a sign posted, that stated before June the 2 elections in 1999: "We will be open on the 2 of June. Like our politicians we like to entertain you on a daily basis."

‘The Democratic Alliance (DA) claims it waited over 26 hours for Telkom to fix a fault in its broadband connection. However, the telecommunications giant says it was fixed in 24 hours and 45 minutes’ (Telkom denies DA’s claims, Doyle, ITWEB Portals Editor, 5 October 2007).

In other words, they are now fighting over a couple of hours instead of over more pressing issues like ADSL line orders ‘…pending which have been waiting for over 100 hours’ (ADSL ISPS suffer at hands of Telkom, MyBroadband, 25 September 2007).
