I have one of their fibre bundles (4Mbps net and 82 TV channels) all for less than Shs.4000 a month. The net speeds are very good. The TV channels are not as good as DSTV's bouquet but it works for me. I got the equipment for free (wireless cable modem and a HD PVR - DSTV sells a similar PVR for Shs. 39,000). Plus they waived their installation charges for me. All in all, I'm one very happy customer Dancing

Got Zuku wireless, working fine since installation. I had wanted to install Access Kenya wireless but I used the only finance knowledge that I know (counting money) and opted for Zuku. Annually I save more than 30k, not too bad. Bills are emailed on time, payments done by Mpesa. So far, no reason to complain or to think of an alternative.

This is not the first time I've heard such complaints about Zuku's customer service. And by the way, I've tested many Zuku connections, and they're not as fast as people hype them up to be. Fastest connection I've seen in Kenya is Sovaya Broadband


What is the speed and pricing of the Sovaya package? I might switch, currently I'm just using an Orange 3G+ modem and the speeds average 560kbps during the day and 1.36mbps at night.

Edit: That's at 3,800/= a month.

Sovaya speeds are in that region as well, and so is the price. The main difference with Sovaya is that those are the actual speeds that you see while downloading. They don't bring for you wordy excuses about how the connection is shared, and other bla bla bla nonsense

My experience with zuku is simply this.

In one office it is horrible, in another it is brilliant.

one customer care rep is brilliant, then there is this lady on the 1st floor Loita house who is just horrible. She actually told a client in line that if the client wasn't happy, he could move.

Absolutely pathetic. Of course we gave her a piece of our mind.

If zuku management can read this, they should get in touch before I get her name and mention it here.

My advice to everyone before you get internet connection. Go to the neighbour and test their connection. Stick with the provider that the neighbours are using.

If there is a tree outside your house, stick to safaricom as these tech guys have never found a solution to the "kuna miti in your area" problem.

My guess is that zuku management not customer support in their is the worst in the world. One guy at their head office on mombasa road is said to be the customer care honcho or biggest kahuna.

someone complained that he could find no satisfaction.

When the client asked for who was the next in line to complain to, the fellow said, NO ONE. In other words, he has the biggest b---s at zuku.

Having said that, in areas where they don't have trees around, it works better than any internet service provider in kenya and you can take that to the bank.

That's my story and I will stick by it.
