Very unfair, especially when they relegate the responsibility of unearthing if it is a scam to the consumers! On 14 Nov 2016 06:08, "Ali Hussein via kictanet" < kictanet@lists.kictanet.or.ke> wrote:
Dear All
I woke up this morning to find myself registered by a Telco for a service I do not want.
[5:59 AM, 11/14/2016] +254 713 601113: You have successfully subscribed to the SKIZA Tunes service.Your password to log on to www.skiza.safaricom.com is xxxx. [5:59 AM, 11/14/2016] +254 713 601113: Your SKIZA Tune <Customized Skiza Tune> was set successfully. [5:59 AM, 11/14/2016] +254 713 601113: You have successfully downloaded SKIZA Tune Customized Skiza Tune .The tune will be renewed at KES 1.00 daily.To delete dial *811#.
I thought these things shouldn't happen anymore?
Why would Safaricom tell me that I have subscribed to SKIZA Tune when I did not? And proceed to tell me they will deduct Kshs. 1 per day for this? And if I want to unsubscribe/delete then I should dial *811#?
Who gave them the permission to subscribe me in the first place?
Maybe my phone was hacked and someone registered me by mistake?
At this point I'm giving Safaricom the benefit of doubt since just two weeks ago the CEO, Bob Collymore gave us his assurance that such behavior by PRSPs is frowned upon by his organisation.
