Which ones? Daily? Weekly? Monthly?

Link??
Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

The idea of Internet Data Bundles in this day and age is FOOLISH!

Better have unlimited data with speeds throttling after a certain limited usage.

I was a Safcom apologist for a very long time, but when i moved to Airtel UnlimiNet in April 2015, MY EYES WERE OPENED! Finally, i saw the light!

I said on this very forum that they would have to to survive.

Na bado.

I repeat, only lazy people who believe safaricom ni mama yao use safcom data.

Bado bei ni ya asubuhi mapema.

Even the twirras saying this is mind boggling change don't use safcom data. haha

unlimited data for 24 hours at 50bob - orange

1000/=Enjoy 2GB+400MIN (ANY network)+2000SMS+unlimited whatsapp+facebook. - airtel

150MBs at 50/- - safCON

Give your money to safcon or to your kids. Chaguo ni lako.

You must be accessing Airtel UnlimiNet from mashambani or you live in a hole or your expectations are that of an addict Torrenter/online gamer/live TV Streamer.

They should make more money all round. Reasons:
1. Night bundles removed
2. Validity period constrained
3. Increased allocation encouraging more waste

Kwani they have not updated their systems guys??? The left hand not knowing what the right one is doing? Or the new rates don't apply to post paid? When I use *200*2# I am getting the old rates!!!!

I got a dual sim to use Unliminet and at home I use Orange for wifi, I will not say that their speeds are slower or faster than Safcon but I can use both to stream TV and Movies throughout the month.

The issue at hand is even not UnlimiNet being faster than SafCom or Orange, No. It is, value for money.

Maybe i'm an exception because where i use Airtel, i can't complain at all. I usually spend the allocated bundles in MAXIMUM 3 days, and the remaining 4 days am usually on the throttled speeds which are WAY MUCH BETTER than any other option available to me.

When you take your money away your money they change. I say we keep migrating till they are offering 150 mb as the smallest 5 bob bundle. All the Safcom sympathisers are preventing progress. You think Safcom sympathizes with you? They only look at their growth graphs and bank accounts to decide their next move. As a consumer you should do the same.

I use unliminet in Nbi City center and even huko bundus using a dual sim phone

Iko slow tu saana. I never exhaust my bundles as a result. I will use max 300 mb in a month

Simple google, wazua, fb, twitter sometime

I know other suffering unliminet users

Or are we all on dual sim?

But I like the 400 min to all networks for 1k

I'm on Airtel 3GB postpaid for 1500/= a month. this is purely for my phone only.

I have never seen 3G, ever. Its always H or H+.

Can I get a better deal? I use almost all the 3GB in a month.

@Lolest! Hiyo yako ni uongo. That is a screen taken a minute ago. Look at my usage for the last 7 days (i.e. worth 250/-)

most dual sim phones have a 3g slot and the other is edge, unatumia gani for airtel - but for your needs (wazua, fb, twitter) edge is enough smile
