512*3 is not 1536? LOL Well, I added 1024+512 initially. Now, where is this 12MB coming from again? These maths of bits and bytes... Now perhaps that explains why Safcom too are making errors:) On Thu, Nov 10, 2011 at 12:19, Steve Obbayi <steve@sobbayi.com> wrote:
Its actually 1548MB not 1536MB. remember technically, 0.5 GB is 512MB

I support you on this one. 1GB is 1024MB, but I think some techies at Safaricom (those who configured the system dishing out bundles) were instructed to deliberately do this miscalculation:-)
Similarly, 1.5GB should not be 1500MB, but 1536MB, right?
A small mistake that I believe Safaricom will correct - to our benefit & loss: Benefit for data users, loss of revenue stream for shareholders like me.

Correct me if am wrong.
My school of thot tells me 1 GB is equivalent to 1024 MB. Why would safaricom sell data of 1GB as 1000MB instead of 1036MB?
Nowanda they are reporting losses.
Thieves!!
