Safcom doesn't need anything from you. You are the only one who might need something from them. And since they cant just pick up every idea and sell it for you, that simply want to take it from you and use it because they can and believe u are willing to give it to them. After all, what other company can you take it to. And what can you do about the terms. I think its a bit clear here. Mwenye nguvu mpishe ama akuangushe. If you are not going to buy sth from Safcom, jst dont even think of going there. They r not trying to sooth anyone after all. They have what they want and they have worked for it. :) On Tue, Jun 22, 2010 at 3:13 PM, Edwin Kaduki <ekaduki@gmail.com> wrote:
Well, in this case the piper won't be getting paid anytime soon.
(e) That Safaricom's receipt of the unsolicited idea/proposal does not imply a promise to pay nor a recognition of the novelty or originality of the idea/proposal nor does it establish a relationship which might require Safaricom to pay for the evaluation of the information disclosed in the idea/proposal.
Therefore my interpretation of this innovation forum is a place where you give ideas to Safcon for free.

I don't know if you can call safcom an old-school company but don't forget the old addage 'He who pays the piper calls the tune' It's very unfortunate but Safaricom have taken such a stance but it's their network and their terms.

Skunks: Have you seen Safaricom Innovation Forum Terms and Conditions - http://safaricom.co.ke/innovation/terms.jsp? I am so disturbed by it. It is in my view grossly unfair and wrong. What happens if your innovation is the next money maker? Safaricom has no obligation to work with you and you relinquish your right to benefit from it long term. This can not be right. I am no lawyer, but this can not be right.
Maybe thats why they have a prominent "Log Out" button on that page ... its shown even if you didn't log in . _______________________________________________ Skunkworks mailing list Skunkworks@lists.my.co.ke http://lists.my.co.ke/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/skunkworks ------------ Skunkworks Server donations spreadsheet
