Guys,
I have been thinking there is no worse marriage than the one we have
between Agwambo's oranges and Ubako's Banana and I have finally come
accross a worse marriage. Safaricon wedded Vodacom in Tanzania. Call
this a result of too many tuskers but I will still insist the marriage
gave me more time for enriching its competitor in profits, EABL, due
to poor speeds. For instance, to load my Gmail account took same time
as 320ML of Tusker down my throat. Am not a fast drinker just so you
know. I have come up with 10 reasons why the Coalition government is
better than Safaricom + Vodacom.
1. Both are Cons (SafariCON and VodaCON).
2. 3g in Dar on a safcon line means 3bps.
3. Vodacom has poorer customer support than KBC TV.
4. When you follow the customer service prompt on Vodacom, there is a
place where you select your prefered language. All recorded messages
are in English but the live person who picks up talks swahili. If you
request they talk English, Charlene my 5 year old daughter speaks
better English.
5. When you get here, Safaricom takes a Safari and Vodacom gives you Voodo.
6. Am roaming on Voda, I keep getting SMS from other networks here to
roam with them, I thought it was a faithful marriage with Safaricom.
7. I have to do this email on Basic HTML Gmail.
8. Since I came here, I know more bars and internet cafes than I know
in Nairobi.
9. Its damn expensive to call Safaricom numbers from my Safaricom
line, which normally costs me about 8 bob, now I am paying
30somthing...
10. When I click send, it will mean another Tusker down my throat
before I see "Message Sent".
Now I could go on and on, but as you notice, am a frustrated customer
of the two giants. Someone forward this to Michael Joseph and ask him
to send me a "Please Call me, Thank You", I will spend my over 30
shillings a minute to call him and offer him some few words. If there
is a Michael Joseph of Vodacom, tell him to change his way if he
suspects am on the same road, there is no telling what a drunk
internet addict can do....
Also pass this message to whoever is doing the C-Class Promotion on
safaricom data, ask them how am supposed to accumulate points when I
can only do 3 bytes per second. I have used 26.7MBs in more than 42
days! I hope they give me a point for each byte.
David,
FBSnV (Frustrated By Safaricom and Vodacom, LLED),
Bsc. SSIF (SMS me for meaning of this).
