Clearly is there anything to analyse here? Just use Zain and when Safcon lowers its charges to 1 bob per min, then we troop back there. But without question Safcon's bottomline will take a big hit - no more profits of 20B and over at least in the foreseable future.

@kivairu

I quite agree with you. Why have we been stuck with safaricom even when vuka was all so alive? well, its not because of cheap tariffs. we all agree that sufferincon is the most expensive, but their innovative services and products are what keeps us glued.

When people 'vukad'.... dint they do that with one leg suffering..... and when the excitement of 'pinky pastures' fizzled out, they were happily back suffering... with us... LOL... but the temptation is too much....

@mpenzi you must be joking/dreaming. Safaricom will record more than 12billion profit for H1 and 25billion for full year

i think some wazuans work with safcom or are part of mobitelea. I can fathom how someone can bash the cheaper calling tarriff from zain and cont praising safcom. thats just beyond me. Innovative products, waht does that mean anyway? what does saf have as service that zain doesnt. but as i said earlier, its a free country. U can choose green or red, but again we jua where the majority are on this. Most of the people i jua have ditched safcom and are in zain officially, what more prooff do i need that safcom is losing badly on this one.

My2cents........how many shares do you have?
You might be shocked to discover that the dividend you get from those Safcom shares is 20% of what your monthly phone bill is using the expensive Safcom....!
Kenyans are indeed peculiar!

OWNERS MY FOOT!!!TELL IT TO THE BIRDS.Majority of the Safcon profits are repatriated to Vodaphone somewhere in UK.

@Njuge!Haha kweli kabisa!
If one even had 20,000 shares...how much dividend is that?Na mtu wa aina hiyo....how much does he spend on expensive Safcom calls?
The problem is people think with their hearts & eyes....

@My2Cents;

@10 cents per share for divideds and you still tell us about shares and ownership. I shall not be cowed by these prophets of doom who think Zain and others cannot make it. It is your choice anyway, green,orange, purple or whatever. Please look for a book titled "Who moved my Cheese", its there in the net.
