Safaricom Ksh.2 per minute data tariff now has over 700,000 subscribers

Written by

You remember Safaricom once upon a time launched data tariff billed at Ksh.2 per minute. Yes that flat rate  where you are charged at 2/- per minute regardless of the amount of data you download. They also promised that there were  no hidden charges. So far i have not heard much complain on that line..so no hidden charges.

We had a big  debate about it here. Many liked the idea but were of the opinion that Ksh.2 was too high compared to the cyber model. I bumped on one of the insiders from Safaricom  and he shared some knowledgeable stats about the tariff. Believe it or not the tariff now  has   700,000 subscribers and growing.

So what do you think, ksh.2 per minute was not high after all….

  • 2 bob a minute is just retarded especially for dumb phones. Per minute billing for internet access is the model ISPs used in the 90’s; FormNet Africa, Net2000, AfricaOnline etc. It’s 2011 Safaricom!
