Target that and you hit them very hard. The data penetration is still very little and if they maintain their current pricing structure I doubt whether they will get the numbers they are targeting. True, the charges are high but in the interests of accuracy, the Ksh 55 as a minimum is not quite true. Sending money to a registered user is 30/- (any amount from 0 to 35,000). Sending to a non registered person would cost you 25/- if amount is less than 2500 and is graduated up to the highest charge of 170/- for sending 20K-35K. What I usually wonder is why it should even cost more than 3.50 or 5.00 given the fact that SMS uses very little, if any network resources. Even if you were to factor in agent costs, stationery etc, the charges are incredulous. kwani you expect me as an agent to rent ahouse, a fellow to operate and a float of 70k and cash of 100k and then give me 5.00 per transanction.this is why ZAP will not take off- very small commisions

Yenyewe I thought peculiar kenyans wont walk the talk....1h 2011 will be very interesting The utimate goal of investing is to buy low sell high;if we re-write this core equation in psychology terms it becomes buy fear sell greed.

Told you to sell a long time ago and you laughed, remember? I think their books close 2nd Sept. but if you wait till then it will be trading @4.5 @2012 don't even dare.... First of all the reasons you gave were nowhere near this.... Safcom was headed higher but we were hit by zain..... Its cool because i know so many fund managers who bought at 6bob starting to activate stop loss on safcom.... But it might find support at these levels but NO WAY its headed significantly higher Mark 12:29 Deuteronomy 4:16
