I am curious as to how else Safaricom manage the risk of their Okoa Jahazi service apart from the users having been on the networks say for certain time X having spent an average of amount T per month.
My take... Look at it this way: Is it possible that SCENARIO 1: A new customer on their network can buy a new SIM card (KES 50?), activate it (KES 50 or how much is it?), Okoa Jahazi with it then throw it away? Not quite practical. SCENARIO 2: An existing user on their network can Okoa Jahazi, then throw away their SIM card to go and buy a new SIM card in order to evade paying the KES 50? No. So I am almost inclined to think that the only time they may lose is when one Okoa's Jahazi then dies! Now that is not quite frequent! -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254733744121/+254722743223 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ "Clothes make the man.
