chargeable Call Diverts have been there from 2002/3.

I think we are missing the point. Say you call 0722*****1 which is diverted to 0722*****2 from your line 0722*****3, what Safaricom does is that you are charged for the call on your line 0722*****3 and also on line 0722*****1. Meaning that you pay double for the same call.

I would compare this to what in telecom was reffered to as a pilot line setup, which I'm not sure still exists. An organisation with several corporate telephone lines used to identify one as the pilot line and all calls to that line would be automatically diverted to any other free line so that client would only memorise one simple line instead of many corporate lines.

Telecom if my memory serves me right never used to charge for this service and even if they did it was a one off cost. What Safaricom is doing is not fair.

what do you guyz expect? You divert and then they pay for you the cost
of diversion? Diverting your calls is like calling the number you are
diverting to when someone calls you - it can never be free - and this
is the norm all world round, not unique to sufferingcon

...noticed something weird with safaricom:
1: when i divert my safcom line to another network, my safcom airtime
gets deducted EVERY TIME i receive a diverted call (on the other line)
2: when my safcom line HAS NO AIRTIME, and is diverted to another
line, safcom declares me MTEJA

...at first, i couldn't make sense of what was happening to my safcom
airtime, but now i have tried, tested and confirmed. anyone else been
bitten so?...
