we simply have to decide, as a country, whether to allow M-Pesa as legal tender. Then it has to comply with all requirements for Legal Tender. If u gave 2,000/= to random guy Kimani on the streets, do u have any right to force him give it back, even though you meant to give it to hawker Kamau? who does the money belong to now?

Members,
I made a payment his weekend using Mpesa to the wrong number. I tried to call the number and no one picked and it was a substantial amount of money. Fortunately I got some advice from someone to call number 234 and sure enough the transaction was reversed after I made the call.
I was wondering how Mpesa will handle or handles some of the payment reversals especially in cases where I would buy and pay something using Mpesa and then after receiving the goods I just reverse the transaction and therefore get goods for free. Probably there is something else I do not know about this transaction reversal thing, but I have a feeling it might bring some problems in the future. Someone who knows about how it operates please shed some light on it please.
