This practice gives the Telecom an approx. 4-5 times higher increase of income per client.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://liberdadi.com/cabo-verde-telecom-betr%C3%BCgt-kunden-in-grossem-stil-0"><P>We've been trying to get a statement from the Telcom about this illegal method for months. Our inquiries per telephone, fax and letter have been left unanswered. Part of the time you cannot reach anyone there for weeks, if you finally reach someone from the service personell then the usual answer is "with the connection everything is fine" and "there are no problems", but "we can send a Technician by".</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/7C4235B2-4799-4F98-A99C-F0A69FE8BCA8/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
