1124554 2010-08-04 03:52:00 This is to Vodofone and Telecom.

You have been ripping us off for years.

Now you are gonna be regulated like in every other country in the world other than Mexico.

The termination rates that we pay that you swap to each other are going to come down. They have been amongst the highest in the world.

You were told several years ago by the Commerce Commission to drop them. You said you would do as you could over the next ten years! But you dropped them by 1 cent.

Now you have 2degrees to look out for.

You brought it on yourselves.

1124555 2010-08-04 03:53:00 low rates, no .. it's a conspirary. no rip off. prices are competitive.

nz is too far away from other countries. nz has not enof population. nz does not have the infrastructure. nz labour too expensive.

2 degrees must be making a lost.

1124559 2010-08-04 05:56:00 y'know, if telecom is making such huge profits, why don't you buy shares in 'em and reap the gravy train? utopian201 (6245)

We all know that Telecom is not doing that well lately.
But that is all their own fault.
They ripped us off for years.
Overcharged us on internet overcharged us on mobile because they could.
Now they pay hundreds of fat cats over 100k a year.

If they had provided good technology and at a fair rate compared to overseas, then we would not have needed any competition.

.

Like F&P, continuing to pay Bonguard $1M a year.

Like the tile co in Argentina when it all went down the tubes and the owner walked off, so the workers having no other jobs or income start it back up and run as a co-op and pay each member the same, it starts to make money, they're exporting, owner comes back and says hey that was mine, government gives it back and repeat till screwed.

1124562 2010-08-04 06:50:00 So the Government sell off Telecom and it becomes a private company I don't hear you telling your local companies they rip you off. However I do agree rates are too high gary67 (56)
