My response to the body corp.

I think I would have to say “No thank you”. I feel that there are just too many factors that would be outside of my control in order to maintain such a connection. Be it electricity (you know Eskom), internet issues, ISP, security exploits, bandwidth, etc.
What happens if I decide to downgrade, or cancel such service, or if we’re simply away from home and something should happen?
I think these are all valid concerns.
I hope you and the BC can understand my perspective.

No, they can have their own internet put in at the gate…
Otherwise they will need to compensate you for the internet usage. If you have fibre i dont see why a little box cant just get installed at the gate?!
When fibre was installed at our complex a box was put in at the gate in the event we wanted to have a fibre connection (which wasnt necessary at that point). No all we need to do is get an ISP and router and connect our cameras.

We had an incident this week where a couple of kids under 6 decided they were going to climb on a car and use it as a slide…watching the footage just makes my blood boil (because parents are not supervising their kids and complain and abuse trustees when we asked them to accompany their kids under 12 in the common property). No i have to hold a meeting with parents …

Lately, Takealot’s service delivery is ass. Been waiting on a delivery since Monday. Their Twitter DM is also very delayed and not helpful.

So don’t let anyone tell you Eskom is inconsistant! They can be when it means no one has to do any work.

Are you in a remote area?

I’ve found they are usually pretty good until they hand it off to one of the couriers that service our area. I had a parcel stated for delivery on the 10th. The remote courier called on the 5th. He got about half way here, and he called to ask how much further I was from point B. I told him another 5-10 minutes. I called him back 20 minutes later, and he claimed there was an accident (ya, bullcrap. If there was he’d have called back to tell me there was a delay). I was wasting my lunch hour waiting around for him.

I don’t know how, but our finance guy had a phone conversation with them on our previous order. If you want I can ask him on Monday how he got a hold of them
