Dowloading a 1 GB movie is like copying a 1kb file.. smile


Details please,installation costs, monthly charge etc


Sorry I was away for a while.
I have the 8mb connection, its shared but i was informed that it deepend on the cluster you are placed in and the time of day u r browsing. This tests were done at around midnite when the were less people people on the network.

Installation costs = 2999 which includes a wireless router.
then monthly cost of 3999 for 8 mb shared bandwidth.
Since i joined zuku my link has gone down only twice n it was power related.
Hope this helps you out.

This Zuku TV thing is not too bad!! I managed to spend a couple of hours yesterday trawling through the channels and caught a local movie "Formula x" with Nice Githinji. Very Nice, so nice I didn't even notice any other actorsmilesmilesmilesmile

Zuku Tv and their internet is good...the only problem is their customer service is very bad and some staff are rude even.

All the unhappy customers can troop to Safaricom 3k unlimited per month. No rude staff/customer service.
Zuku better revise their pricing at this rate.

No. DSTV has that one really wrapped up. But if you know where to get livestreams online....4 mbps is enough.

Thank you @ Elder, was hoping it has, then again the option of livestreams is ok but may not feel like the real thing. Will sure try.

i tried zuku for 1 month but was disappointed with the reception which was not very clear and the internet speeds varied alot. when fast they were very fast but majority of the time it was slow. my advice use safaricom for internet - 1000/- shs credit on 3g last for quite a while, and use dstv for tv - its a bit more expensive but you get quality channels and no recpetion problems or excuses that the cable has been vandalised!!

We got connected, but it took a week for us to really use the service ( we were among the first people in our area so i forgave them)

Then one weekend we did not have service on either TV or internet however we got connected on Sunday (the Tech came on Sunday- i forgave them)

Conclusion- I love the triple play service or lets call it double play coz the phone is yet to work.

I have never understood why the grumbling about Zuku. I am very satisfied with the service and the price. All my friends are on Zuku and they all sing praises about it. One of them uses Zuku for his business and he says even with the few down times, it is value for money.

How does Zuku internet work. I mean, is it wireless like Safcom or Orange or must they have a cable connection to your area. I live in Nyayo Estate, Embakasi. Anyone with an idea whether this area is linked

i guess the logic is simple, dont expect to pay peanuts and get a quality service in return. you get what you pay for!

This zuku thing is the best. I'm watching the movie 'Mamma Mia' with my all time greatest actress Meryl Streep with Pierce Brosnan (yes James Bond). The movie is adapted from the songs of my best musical group - ABBA. Voulez Vous? Yes I want.
