>>~I also have 2 lines n 2 phones. And I use AirTel for data coz it's cheap!(may not be fast enough) and Scon for incoming calls as most of my callers are on safcon.

The three most important factors in business success are:
1: LOCATION
2: LOCATION
3: LOCATION

When Kencel/Celtel/Zain/Airtel/Whateverelse figure this out, then people will migrate there in droves. Until that day, they can cut prices to 0.05cents[not shillings!] but the gains will only be temporary--- people will move back to SCOM as soon as the offer is over.

Who wants a cheap service that you can't get?

@VVS: my point exactly, you have to be everywhere.... where your potential customers are. If they are online, then go there; if they are on the moon, go there as well.

Kencel/Celtel/Zain/Airtel/Whateverelse imagine that they can win the war by slashing prices left, right and centre. But, for example, who wants a cheap money service that has not agents? I walk outside my office and I look to the left where I see four M-PESA signs; and to the right I see two M-PESA signs.

Zap? the nearest agent is at least 500m away! Guess which money transfer service I use [even though I' registered with both]?

when i look back, there are days when mpesa has literaly saved me. I predominantly use airtel for calls and sms. I gave up looking for zap outlets like 6 months ago. Airtel can not win this war, if they dont equal or better Mpesa, simple as that.
