if i subscribe 100 smses in a day and manage to use only 50 of them, that goes to spending 20bob for 50 resulting to 40 cents per minute.
the only person who needs these number of sms are those who send mass texts, i mean a singe message to very many people, or the quick texts to pass info in an organisation.
this service is still worthwhile although i dont send texts.

The safaricom offers on SMS only applies to SMS sent to other Safaricom numbers. Off network SMS remain then same.

Zain for 20 bob per day will give you 300 SMS per day to other Zain numbers and a flat 1 bob to other numbers. Even with their bundles Zain is still cheaper.

They should have packaged the 100sms bundle as a corporate offer, cause that's its only practical application

Safcon are cons. Be careful on their promotions because you never know when they withdraw the promotions. Always keep an eye on your credit. Their recent promotion on 8 bob for 10 MB has been quietly withdrawn leaving our Credit to drain without one's knowledge. This subcription is a one off and once you subscribe, they are meant to deduct 8/- from your account daily. I called customer care and they told me unless I receive an SMS daily confirming that I can use this service, the offer is not valid. I even proceeded to purchase a bundle, yet still the bundle remained untouched and they still deduct my credit and not the bundle.

I am not going to complain again. I feel cheated and I am never going to use their data services ever again.

I spoke to customer care last evening. Found a very switched on lady who admitted that their systems are having challenges. She even adviced me unsubscribe and then resubscribe for this pepea services which worked. I was told to wait for my account to be credited after 2 days
