Every South African knows: Telkom. Is. Useless

Just to get it off my chest, let me share my Telkom experience:

1. It took more than 3 months for an engineer to install a line when I moved flats.

2. During that time, you can't contact support without a line. When you do (on a friend's line) it takes more than 30 minutes to reach operators who can't help you.

3. When the line was eventually installed, IT DIDN'T WORK! The engineer came back (I messaged him on his cell phone) and said it was due to Telkom not activating the line. We tried again. But still, after months, no line, no service. So I just gave up.

3. After a year Telkom sent me an sms saying I owe them money back paid for the line rental THAT NEVER WORKED.

4. I rep**** that we can go to the small claims court for that as they still had my deposit of R750 rand that I made when ordering their defective product. Never heard back from them and they still have my deposit.

Ja ne, what can you do
