The biggest bundles, i.e. 20 GB & 30 GB are valid for 90 Days. lovely2010 wrote:To be honest, I have not seen the ads and @ mwanahisa didnt say anything about Ksh 1000 you get 1.5gb...read his thread...but thank you so much...I will go for 1.5gb instead, I wish I knew you, leo ungekunywa kahawa...

I think I will still stick with the old one...1.5gb is unlimited for one week only...not a whole month...Check this one out.. http://www.safaricom.co.ke/index.php?id=241
What are you talking about? The 1.5GB I loaded today will expire on 21 August. That's one month, isn't it? Nothing is real unless it can be named; nothing has value unless it can be sold; money is worthless unless you spend it.

BBI will solve it :)

Access Kenya will just have to lower their prices now. They already have all the infrastructure they need. They should lower their residential rates from 4000/- for 256kbps to 2000/- and also negotiate better deals with the corporates if they still want to remain in the market. One of m friend has access kenya in his house and the speeds are wonderful.

Its great Safaricom didnt wait for Airtel to begin a data war; Safaricom has started firing warning shots in the air, well before Airtel launches.This effectively pulls the rug under Airtels feet. They may come to the market with lower prices, but only slightly lower; Safaricom can now ignore the price margin and market itself on its wide coverage of 3G across Kenya, its speed and several value adds on the 3G network like DSTV, online gaming etc which Airtel will take a while to replicate. Actually Safaricom could start singing 4G as Airtel tries to find their feet. Its a war; and its just started. Access Kenya, Zuku na Yu wako taabani. The laudable is more often than not rendered laughable by overclaim

@ Cde Monomotapa - If you have Access Kenya then just hold onto it and when the prices rises (incase if it does) then minimise your losses and move out. If you do not have then just AVOID this stock.

And if I buy now, my shares will be at least 50% cheaper than QW's  .

@ Cde Monomotapa - Yes all these stock are advisable to buy only SPECULATION PURPOSES like Olympia,Eveready,Access and Sameer. If half year results good you will make some money on these cheap stocks otherwise you will burn your fingers further.
