I'm actually affected by that problem. And Safaricom insists that all divert cost will be paid by the owner of the number. Such incompetence that should not be tolerated at that level. I hope big brother is listening. On 16/08/2013, Odhiambo Washington <odhiambo@gmail.com> wrote:
Now I hear there was a major hiccup at Safaricom that made several numbers unreachable, and yes, I know someone who went through this. Let's wait for official communication from Safaricom so we can know what happened.
Funny advise that was - to divert all calls to 'another working number'. 1. Does this mean Safaricom expects, as a standard, that everyone should have an alternate number?? 2. And suppose the alternate number is also in the same affected lot? Or did they mean 'divert to another network'? 3. And who did they think is supposed to pay for the 'divert' charges when it is their fault?

I hope CCK logs the downtime experienced today. Many Safaricom numbers have been "mteja" for like 24hours. Safaricom advice has been to divert all calls to another working number

I wonder why networks like Airtel are not flogging twin SIM Phones. Safaricom are not their competitors. Different lanes. They will not win against Queen bee. They can however cannibalize their voice and text market. Twin Sims are the only way to do this in my opinion. Let users keep the Safaricom Line but offer them a "Mpango wa Kando" line that they can use for Data, Voice ETC when they are feeling broke. Same phone 2 SIMS.
Attacking Safaricom will only wound them. I for instance will not dump my Safaricom Line even if calls are free on the other networks. I however operate an Orange line for voice and data. Split the revenue. But Alas walk into an Airtel shop and their handsets are ridiculously priced symbian things.

Listers
It looks like Airtel have used the lowering of interconnection (MTR) rates by CCK to restart the tariff wars.
They have introduced a promo tariff for Sh2/- per minute across all networks.
I wonder how the other operators will respond.
I thought one of their recent business moves was wise amidst many baffling ones but I'm not sure where to place this one.
