I wish the wasrs could be taken to the petroleium industry...we would be paying 60bob per litre of petrol.. it is only sensible to think about it. Remember the consumer has to bear the cost of a product. Even if you dont care, that cost will come out in one way or another. E.g imagine, zain suddenly collapses with all the mobiledeposits.

The telcoms are now operating in virtually all sense as banks in so far as deposittaking is concerned, yet the deposits are not properly regulated like banks.

Actually the biggest threat to Mpesa will be the orange platform. This is just but another naive loss making call from Zain 'They say money cannot buy me happiness but when i compare when i had none and now, i'm happier' Kevin O'leary

No price war here, the charge for sending money has always been 10/ Yes, it has alway been 10 shillings and the number of Zap agents have always been tiny.
