I find it suspicious that Equitel did the price increment silently. Do we not have laws compelling service providers especially those of mass products to announce increments just as loudly as they announce entry into the market?

Equity Bank says it charges remain about KSh. 30, but the extra costs are what Safaricom is levying them to accept M-Pesa deposits from Equitel http://www.infotake.co.ke/2015/08/equitel-users-silently-hit-by-100.html -- with Regards: blog.denniskioko.com <http://www.denniskioko.com/>
