5000 KES buys you 35 GB data, unlimited SMS and 1000 minutes for a month, including 40 minutes of international calls. That's 167 KES a day for a daily average usage of more than 1 GB, unlimited SMS in Kenya and 33 minutes calling. Continue using WhatsApp when you run out of data.
Safaricom promises you incentives from business partners like Shell and Eat Out. The "Bill Manager" promises to take the hassle out of paying bills and should remember till numbers.
Safaricom defines international calls as calls to China, USA, India and Canada. A strange view of the world indeed...
For 4000 KES, Faiba's monthly SIMBA 3GB / Day gives you 90 GB data + 700 SMS + 700 minutes. Far more data but not as much calling. Check that you can connect and that your phone is compatible with their network.
Airtel UnlimiNET Monthly 2000 gives you 12 GB of data + some free access to WhatsApp, Twitter and Facebook + 10000 SMS + 1200 minutes per month at only 2000 KES. At 40% of the the cost, this may be a workable alternative.
Safaricom's Advantage Plus Premium, Platinum+ 5K and Flex Monthly 7500 come at the same price but offer different services, mainly in data and minutes. Find out what you really need before you buy.
Our review conclusions: A great effort from Safaricom again for this heavy duty bundle. More than twice the data for the same price. Well done!
