Does it mean that Safaricom is now the only serious and most reliable network despite carrying over 80% of kenya's traffic [Voice,data & m-commerce] ? Just asking....

Pole sana. You said you called 111? or 222? (111 is used for some promo which I guess ended) I thought Customer care line for Airtel is 710** FYI

hi all, I. have been with the network ever since it was celtel. Actually, the switch to celtel was a big motivator, seeing as am a big fan of the underdogs. Connection to their customer care was always between 3 - 5 min tops....up until Airtel bought out Zain!!!
I too have experienced the 'localized' network outtages but only for the data-services which quickly turned to trash as soon as Airtel took over. I can't wait for another company to take over ... hopefully Zain can make a comeback now that Arab countries are making huge strides in the economic sphere :-) .
