Some effort by Safaricom, but only if you can navigate through this minefield: https://www.facebook.com/notes/s...nditions/971869686181053

• over 30 points in terms and conditions
• must dial a further number to get bonus
• which is only 50% bonus anyway
• only for on-network calls, sms
• only for 24 hours
• excludes data

Which grandma, or Dad for that matter will get it? All they see is the poster...

In developed markets, the lead up to the campaign would be fundamentally dishonest. Maybe the offer is for people upcountry who can be taken advantage of without a clue

They should have named it #madarakaday crap,that 24hrs expiry is exemplary greed.

Luckily niko orange and can't complain. Safari con line ni ya mpesa.

I also got the magical kadunda orange999/= phone for my folks and this thing is good. It is a whole basic package with basic Internet, radio, torch two sim slot memory slot. Badala ya fake sumsong s5 afadhali haka kadunda. And the thing is also flying off the orange shelves.

At 100 /= monthly subscription, i make most of my calls for free between 10a.m and 5pm including office landlines calls. Its also cheaper to call from Orange to safaricom than safaricom to safaricom.(Enough of free advertisement for Orange from a happy customer endeleeni kuumizwa tu huko suffericon)


Kenyans are peculiar indeed to stick with the greedy safaricom who milk them senseless dry.

After all that the bonus will last for less than a day... Who approves such promotions?
