For 250 MB Data, Safcon gonga'z you 1,200/-. Add three sok to this figure (1,500/-) and Orange gives you a 1GB Data bundle.

Safcon operates on one principal only - GREED!

May their share price tumble to mere cents. ABK!
So nice that its nasty, so bangin' its busting,
So slick that its sick, so dope its disgusting!

they should start charging those safcon subscribers receiving calls from zain a "receiving fee"

You are surely a genius!!! But I don't think CCK would allow this. If it is legal, it would be a stroke of genius. 5/= per minute for every "other network" [Zain] call you receive. Everyone would refuse to pick Zain calls. Or they pick and talk for 2 seconds - "Nipigie na Safaricom" - and they disconnect. LOL. Laughing out loudly Laughing out loudly Laughing out loudly

Nice thinking jaguar. Can we start a business together?


When i first bought my safaricom number 1999 safaricom would charge me to receive calls and that was intra network charges I only had 10 contacts!

I think Safaricom should simply lower their upper limit for super ongea tariff rate from 8bob to kedo 4bob and let the minimum hold as-is. As for the sms rates,they should stick to the 15sms' for 10 bob and 5 sms' for 5bob, but across all networks. Then we w8 and see the mhindi's response to that.
As for data, give competitive 'pepea points' based on voice calls made using line, except for those using safaricom modems.
As an investor in safaricom and also having my business mainly relying on mkesho-mpesa product as well as 90% of my clients using my safaricom number to contact me, I would hate to see Safaricom operations severely affected because of this.Sad
If only they listen to their customers,Pray and model a profitable product around their customer requirements. This would be the best gift Michael Joseph would leave for safaricom.

Tin-man, one of the selling points of Zain's offer is it's simplicity. Changing the Super Ongea model will not do. It is 3 bob per minute Saf to Saf or nothing.

Having said this, what I see Safaricom actually doing is introducing some data bundle for their users to 'bamba'
