buy ex div under three doallrs, page-2

I will also be watching for an opportunity here. I am not 100% sure that I will buy TLS, but I will now be watching the post-div period very closely. They do seem very cheap, and so there is obviously much bad news/headwind factors allowed for in this price.

My dilema is that I personally don't use their services (not directly anyway), and so I can understand why many others also choose not to. However, there also seem to be loyal telstra customers too, although this seems to be declining. The question for me is, "...is this customer base decline a cancer, or a bump in the road?".

PS I know that TLS is bigger than just direct retail customers, but here is where my concern is for the short term (1-2 yrs).

PPS. I already have a small position.

Cheers.
