Can anyone help me. My son has a telkom ADSL line that he pays for and has to top up most months. He spends a lot of time on his computer as it is his career but we think that it may be facebook using it up also. Can anyone give me an idea on what the charges/space used would be to be on facebook for an hour a day so I can pay my share? Or who could I contact? Thank you. Sands

Wi-Fi is fine whilst it working.When mine stopped it took 41min.21 sec for 0800-375375 to answer and my router was tested faulty. Two routers later they are all dead says Johan in Cape Town.
On my own, as a Telkom pensioner, I established that the port in the exchange is faulty. The two ‘FAULTY” routers exchanged at the Pavillion should be declared “healthy” and the test equipment in Cape Town be looked at.

PS: I tried 0800 375375 at 23:00 at night and had to hang up after 30 minutes as my 70 year old body needs some sleep.
Best regards

[...] US$ 19.99 = 143.42825 South African rands How do you do that? For six months 3Mbps high speed internet access in the US you’d be able to afford line rental on a Telkom phone and make a few calls to a mobile number and order a broadband internet service in South Africa.

We a really very annoyed with the service we are having regarding our ADSL line. It was reported out of order on the 18th of December 2006, Ref no. 508ARK181206, yet we have not seen a technician, we did get two phone calls from the Telkom call centre with lots of promises without any luck. If you could possibly help us we will be very greatful. We are running a small Accounting concern and really do need our communication urgently. Thanking you in anticipation.

Saw this which was pretty interesting, basically exactly what you were using it for.:

Personally I’d like it. There still isn’t really a way in which you can drop any contacts easily? You have to mail LinkedIn if you want to remove anyone?

This is a pretty cool referance to use. I’ve been thinking of setting up ADSL at my girlfriends flat but need the costs broken down so that her parents can understand the pricing, and this helps a lot!

thanks.
