Can say without any doubt the worst service I have experienced the past 10 years goes to @Telkom. How can it take 12 days to solve a simple problem?

Pity I was so burntout in 2011 to take mxit further.Had all ingredients to become major success story. The missing catalyst was new energy

The 7 day journey from Noordoewer to Swakopmund by MTB was a refreshing tonic. What an amazing country of extremes.

A personal observation. Increase in age == decrease in tolerance when it comes to poor service.

2 years ago this day it was my last day as CEO MXit. It was a hell of a ride but I'm glad I had the sense to realize that I was burned out

@DStvCare Thx it is sorted now after an hour phone call to cc dept.

[Herman Heunis @hermanheunis]

@Dstv it is SERIOUSLY not cool to suspend my viewing when my account is fully paid up. Something is seriously wrong at your accounts dept!
