Re: [Skunkworks] Mpesa question: airtime to mpesa

They do not deliberately send you 5 text messages. Your phone tries to send your text but Safaricom returns an error (because you don't have cash). So your phone retries sending the message which again fails and the cycle continues. Meanwhile for each failed attempt, Safaricom sends you an sms about your account status.
