I just got spammed on my mobile from Dodo.

So I think it's only fair to quote some figures from the TIO (Telecommunications Industry Ombudsman) Annual Report for the year ending 30/06/07 which is the current release.

Complaints - Landline, Mobile and Internet.
Dodo Australia: 19,920

Yep, 19,920 complaints in just 12 months, and people usually need to be pretty peeved to lodge a complaint to the TIO.

To put it into perspective, Telstra Big Pond only had 11,880 complaints.

"Dead as a Dodo" still means something.

Spread the word.

Did it wipe off ok Pete? I'm guessing with something as large as a dodo, it was a fair old mess?
