The shittiest ISP that ever touched the earth. Don't try to play a videogame while you have telekom, you'll not have any fun at all, don't try to watch videos, they won't load, not even fucking minesweeper works when you use this piece of crap. If you want to try out telekom, be prepared to have 900 fucking ping AT BEST on all videogames, I'm not fucking kidding, and their costumer support literally hangs up when you call them.
Person1: Why does person2 lag so much?

The ability to find yourself fully surrounded by incompetent idiots while working from the comfort of your own home.

A goverment supported Telecoms monopoly in South Africa, which at best charges 105% above the average wage for a inferior ADSL connection, $17991/m for a 1mb leased line and $1012 for 30GB of download data. Great profit at the expence of the poorly educated, inferior quality, bad service and dismal performance are their main products, these are products they plan to begin exporting to the rest of Africa in the near future.

Someone should point out to George Bush that they are more dangerous than Iraqi WMD.
Rip-off: Telkom SA, redefines the words shaft, shafted, steal, rape, plunder and dumbasses.

Telkom just ruined another perfectly good day.

After the ANC, Telkom is South Africa's largest crime syndicate.

Their modus operandi is to force other companies into selling their products for them under duress, extort ungodly fees out of their customers, particularly on ADSL lines, with broadband prices 10 times or more than overseas, and up to 100 times more on leased lines.

They resort to thuggery and intimidation such as sending technicians to disconnect you for no reason, charging you for non-existent calls and unexplained tariffs and staffing their call centres with retarded unionised sociopaths.

Their main partners in crime are Eskom and Sasol.
It's a proven fact that if you fly 1st class to Hong Kong, stay in a 5 star hotel, buy a laptop, download 100GB onto it and fly back, it will be both QUICKER and CHEAPER than if you stayed in SA and downloaded it on a Telkom line.

Word of the Day on October 28, 2026
A lighthearted reaction upon receiving disappointing news of some sort. Usually something that isn't a particularly a big deal, esp. when it primarily affects someone else - sort of a mild schadenfreude. Sometimes doubled or tripled, and possibly said in a sing-songy voice for added comedic effect to imitate a muted trumpet, which is how the meme originated.

Surf Dracula Syndrome 

A phenomenon in film/television series, most notably streaming series, where the main premise is drawn out to such a point that it takes an entire season or more to get the parts of the series the audience is actually interested in seeing.

For example, if a series is titled "Surf Dracula," a majority of viewers would tune in expecting to see Dracula surfing by the first or second episode. However, the entire first season would instead be tedious padding and backstory before finally ending with Dracula surfing in the last five minutes of the season finale.
I watched "Smallville" on Netflix the other day. Dude, it was ten seasons of filler before he finally flew! Major Surf Dracula Syndrome!
