Here's a mail I received from Safaricom

Good morning,

 

Safaricom is pleased to announce the Niko na Safaricom “Get 50% extra airtime Top up Promotion” where subscribers will get 50% extra FREE airtime on all top-ups of Ksh 50 to Ksh 1000 e.g. Top-up Bamba 50 get 75/- airtime, Bamba 100 get 150…… 1000 get 1500/-

 

Promotion Mechanics:

ü  ALL top-ups during the promotion period, from Ksh 50 to Ksh 1000 using scratch-cards, electronic vouchers (EAD), ATM qualify for the discount.

ü  You must top-up with Ksh 50 or more in one-go to qualify e.g. 3 Bamba 20 top-ups will not qualify

ü  Promotion runs from 0600hrs to 2359hrs on Wednesday 15th July 2009.

Note:

ü  MPESA top-ups and Sambaza DO NOT qualify

ü  Offer available on all PrePay tariffs i.e. Ongea, Safari, Super Taifa and Staff Tariffs only

ü  The extra airtime will carry the same validity as the normal airtime

ü  The credit can be used to make both off-net and on-net calls/SMS and browse the internet.

 

Subscribers can top-up as many times during the promotion. Each top-up of Ksh 50 or more will receive the bonus airtime.

 

Kind regards,

 

Brenda Mutuma

Dealer Support Manager



I promptly wrote back and asked why is it that as usual, postpaid customers are specifically excluded from such offers. I'll be surprised if they respond. I think it's just blatant discrimination.
