New Cell C banner erected at World Wear shopping centre | News Article

Johannesburg - A revamped Cell C banner has gone up at the World Wear shopping centre, with some content removed and new content added.

The initial banner, put up on November 6 by disgruntled Cell C client George Prokas, which is prominently displayed on a wall outside the mall on Beyers Naude Drive originally read: "The most useless service provider in SA -- Cell C Sandton City."
 
It also named the branch manager and his phone number.
 
Cell C applied for an urgent interim interdict against the banner. The High Court in Johannesburg dismissed the application and ordered that Cell C pay Prokas's legal costs.
 
The banner was altered before the court appearance to read: "Cell C the most useful cellular provider. It was not known who changed it.
 
The new banner does not have the network logo. It reads: "Cell C-perceived by the owner of this billboard to be the most useless service provider in SA as experienced via Cell C Sandton City."
