Nerd, we could go on and on about this but the SEC investagation will answer all questions in due time. You say the complaint never occured again.
How do you know when you don't know what the complaint was. Dohan only accepted the information given to them and made suggestions which were not disclosed publicly. Here are remarks from the 2005 yearly report which to me looks like Globetel may have been uncertain of thier procedures:

ITEM 8. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND
FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.
None.
ITEM 8A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
(the "Exchange Act"), the Company carried out an evaluation under the
supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including
the Chief Executive Officer and President and the Chief Financial Officer, of
the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as of
December 31, 2005. In designing and evaluating the Company's disclosure controls
and procedures, the Company and its management recognize that there are inherent
limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and
procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or
overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective
disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of
achieving their desired control objectives. Additionally, in evaluating and
implementing possible controls and procedures, the Company's management was
required to apply its reasonable judgment. Furthermore, in the course of this
evaluation, management considered certain internal control areas, including
those discussed below, in which we have made and are continuing to make changes
to improve and enhance controls. Based upon the required evaluation, the Chief
Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of December
31, 2005, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective (at
the "reasonable assurance" level mentioned above) to ensure that information
required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under
the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time
periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms.

From time to time, the Company and its management have conducted and will
continue to conduct further reviews and, from time to time put in place
additional documentation, of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures,
as well as its internal control over financial reporting. The Company may from
time to time make changes aimed at enhancing their effectiveness, as well as
changes aimed at ensuring that the Company's systems evolve with, and meet the
needs of, the Company's business. These changes may include changes necessary or
desirable to address recommendations of the Company's management, its counsel
and/or its independent auditors, including any recommendations of its
independent auditors arising out of their audits and reviews of the Company's
financial statements. These changes may include changes to the Company's own
systems, as well as to the systems of businesses that the Company has acquired
or that the Company may acquire in the future and will, if made, be intended to
enhance the effectiveness of the Company's controls and procedures. The Company
is also continually striving to improve its management and operational
efficiency and the Company expects that its efforts in that regard will from
time to time directly or indirectly affect the Company's disclosure controls and
procedures, as well as the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
As the Company moves successfully forward along its various product lines, new
people have joined the Company while others have been assigned new and expanding
responsibilities. In addition to establishing up-to-date financial controls
throughout the Company to reflect this new organization and expanding market
development, GlobeTel has updated various standards and compliance measures to
reflect its emerging global presence.
This includes a strict adherence to the Foreign Corrupt Practices act, an
updated and enhanced Code of Conduct and Business Ethics as well as its
Corporate Governance Statement. We have made significant changes in the
Company's internal controls that have affected the internal controls subsequent
to the date of the evaluation. We have established a financial reporting
controls committee, which meets quarterly to address corporate financial issues.
We have added two more employees to its accounting staff, including an
experienced full-time Controller and Accountant. Additionally, we have purchased
a financial reporting software tool to help analyze financial data and to
expedite the consolidation and reporting process. We have purchased a new
integrated accounting system which will be implemented during the first quarter
of 2006. In addition, the Company hired a consultant to perform an internal
control review for the purpose of evaluating the Company's internal controls. As
a result, additional controls and procedures were implemented. The Company has
also restructured departmental responsibilities and instituted a budgeting
process.
