Dear friends, Today I received the following SMS from $afaricon: "Browse at Ksh2/- per minute and enjoy FREE high speed 3G internet on Wednesday 25/5/2011 from 11pm to 11am. Dial *142# to activate, applicable only on PrePay" This message read like digital manna from heaven. I had an active line on PrePay and so that was already covered. All I had to do was do the *142# thingy so as to activate the service. I immediately received a confirmation message that I was now on the 2/- browsing service. I then made a list of all the "stuff" that I was going to download overnight so that I can have them by morning. I eagerly waited until 11.35pm (25-5-2011) and connected to the net. After surfing to a round 8 minutes, I got disconnected...what the *$%@ is going on? I asked myself... I checked my balance to see if my Ksh.16 was still there...lo and behold...it was all gone!!! I thought FREE means FREE... I am emotionally wounded and severely distressed:-( I am now going to bed... Safaricom stole my Ksh.16...should I sue? Timo.
