even the media has started noticing the insults on twitter and facebook pages for safcom......People have gallons of bile.

bob collymore must be the most hated CEO in east africa.

....but I miss Michael Joseph for understanding our peculiar habits....of course competitive environment has changed, but things might have been different.

and the use for my safaricom line is reducing drastically.
African parents don't know how to say sorry.. the closest you will get to a sorry is a 'have you eaten'

Am not an employee but...NIKO NA SAFARICOM! Laughing out loudly Laughing out loudly
Anyway, I overheard that one of the reasons for the scrapping of the unlimited bundle is our peculiar habit of downloading porn and movies series thus "congesting" the bandwidth smile

Anyway what does that mean to competitors in the long run. My 2 cents, we will all move to them and "clog" their bandwidth. In the short run safcom will loose customers but some of us will troop in back once the speeds have become unbearable on the other side of the greenery.

What part of the word "UNLIMITED" did safcom not understand when they chose to launch it in an internet service?
What was the point of that lousy excuse given by Collymore about Kenyans downloading 35GB a day? Isn't 35GB a limited figure already?
Unlimited is when the net monitor returns an infinity sign when queried about a users downlink data not figures touching 35GB!
Were there terms and conditions as how to use the "UNLIMITED" service? If there were why does it have its name as "UNLIMITED"?

There is just too toooo much that doesn't make any sense to agree with the move of withdrawing the service. I would only see it as a strategy to return to its lost glory of spectacular profits which can't happen with the word "UNLIMITED" in any of its services.

Thats why they had bandwith throttled for unlimited data, you can still download a movie with the fixed data bundles.
I think its just a move to make individuals buy more bundles.
