So i get a receipt via sms this morning telling me that i have received dividend payment from safaricom with the amount stated( ).. yet there is no difference in my MPESA account balance...BOB is just as crafty as Michael Joseph Kamau.

247/- as transaction charge... i thought it was 30/- ... i can smell B.s from a far..

Their T&C show there are no transaction charges for dividends received via mpesa..

got mine early today. mmmm, not bad.

Njugu karanga!!!Atleast its saved me on credit for the day which goes back to them anyway...vicious cycle!

@PuthyKrasha funny enough i also noticed the same for mine. I purportedly received 100 via mpesa but there's no change in my balance. I immediately smelled a rat and was even thinking of starting a thread on the issue. I think that some smart chap at safcom is randomly deducting the cash from the dividend payments.

true, one should never be charged for receiving any amount, even dividends. when i check my dividend payment, its based on sh0.19 per share instead of sh0.20 per share. hiyo one cent imeenda wapi?

Ngai fafa.. yenyewe that Safcom IPO introduced "investors" to the market.. yaani people don't know eti all companies pay dividends net of witholding tax..

DOD.....dude,that's why you should be like me.Buy into Centum....there will be no tax on dividends,cos they don't pay div until 2014! Otherwise keep paying money into our cdf system!!
