There is a guy on the stocks kenya forum who said on a thread that he had received threats after he pulled out of a contract from customer care. At that time zain edge was painfully slow even on phone. It was after they got a few million customers from their infamous vuka tariff. On 14/08/2009, Solomon Mburu <solo.mburu@gmail.com> wrote:
@ Kioko,
Oh, and there was that time that they threatened customers who quit the
contract when Zain internet slowed down to a crawly 2kbps.
When was this? What were the details of the threat? Update pls.
I can't recall a time Zain issued threats to its customers who wanted to stop using it's services. It is important to get the facts right.
I understand all the telcos have their shortcomings, and when In this forum, we highlight on the challenges we get on our respetive telcos and the respose is -ve or +ve, depending on how factual our statements are!
Cheers

bandwidth 236.8 kbit/s so that's up to 30KB/s data transfer - pretty sure that's better than pre-seacom. On a phone that should be reasonable.

Am curious. Seeing as Zain doesnt have 3G, will it make much of a difference in terms of speeds whether they are on Seacom or not?

Man is a gregarious animal and enjoys agreement as cows will graze all the same way to the side of a hill!
AND
It is better to die in dignity than in the ignomity of ambiguous generosity!
