Safcom 3G and dwindling speeds

Maybe its just me, but ever since i heard that safcom was connected to TEAMS (3/4wks i think) my browsing speeds have only gone down - DRASTICALLY!! Nowadays I operate at sub 7KBps on avg with sudden 3/5 sec spikes of about 150KBps every couple of hours or so and then back to the 5-10KBps avg. Speeds were pretty good pre-TEAMS. Anyone else experiencing this or is it just me?

Could be due to their Ksh. 200 unlimited per day offer which I guess happened around the same time as their TEAMS connection... Me thot.s Chris_w. dabnix@gmail.com _______________________________________________

I complained a lot under this topic: Back to : Safaricom Free Unlimited Internet [for 14 days ???] at [Ksh. 200 ???] I really think our internet speeds became worse in the advent of this fiber- even at the offices, we used to do a good 150Kbps pre-TEAMs,,, nowadays, getting 30Kbps is a miracle.. I also experience this with Orange iphone and 3G+ cards - things have become horrible !!!
