Good Afternoon, I have received the following SMS from Safaricom "*Dear Customer, you can now buy airtime from as little as Shs. 5 from your M-PESA Account. Airtime purchased via M-PESA is absolutely FREE. Thank You*". I know it means that you will not be charged for buying airtime via M-PESA but it is misleading as it could be interpreted to mean that if you load airtime through M-PESA it will be absolutely FREE (the amount will not be deducted from your M-PESA account). I might wrong or may be reading too much between the lines. What do you think?
It says "Airtime PURCHASE"... meaning the service of purchasing the airtime is free... David. On Thu, Jan 20, 2011 at 12:55 PM, James Kagwe <kagwejg@gmail.com> wrote:

I hate SufferingCon, but there is no way this can be misleading - you are purchasing something, so money must first change hands, as opposed to withdrawing money from you mpesa (charges apply) then buying airtime from kiosk (charges never apply) ./Ok3ch On Thu, Jan 20, 2011 at 1:10 PM, pithon kamau <pitkag@gmail.com> wrote:
