Guyz,
Anyone from safaricom on the list?
I just noted how almost impossible it is for someone to start MPESA even as a sub-agency in an area where there is totally no MPESA within like 8-10KMs unless he knows someone in the inside!
Essentailly if you give a company a lead on prospective Business,they will support you,but on the contrary,I have located several places in Western Kenya where MPESA is just heard on media.I have gone through an Agent to be a sub-agent in the place.I got all the requirements,painting the building ,getting local government permit,cash in my account etc.But Safaricom have ONLY promised since september 2009 to come and check the building(and they are still coming!).
Is this corruption or Safaricom does not need such money let alone empowering citizens with surprises,opportunities?This place is a district headquarter!Any safaricom person on the list to shed some light?
