I am currently outside of SA. This is part of my problem with your customer, every time they have their automated **** dial me, its costing me money @ R6,00 per minute, maybe I should recope my losses from Telkom as you are so kind to provide these shysters the means to their stinky trade? I am holding you at Telkom responcible for this issue.
