<br>> <br>> Thank you for sharing the blog on the anti-consumer<br>> setting in the country. The blog has very useful<br>> information that is not being shared with Kenyan<br>> consumers and it is key that consumer rights are upheld.
<br>> Your blog out to be brought to more attention of key<br>> stakeholders in ICT and to consumers alike. <br>> <br>> Yes, the Ministry and CCK are best placed to<br>> authoritatively comment on such an issue. However I
<br>> believe that what AT&T is discontinuing is the ability to<br>> use a "call back" number from Kenya to the US. It is very<br>> likely that the call back numbers which are 0800 numbers<br>> are no longer profitable for AT&T especially given that
<br>> they cost as high as $3/min. Technically they are<br>> supposed to be cheaper to use than if one was to
"call<br>> back" the US direct from any other country be it Kenya or<br>> the UK. However with AT&T's rate to call the US from<br>> Kenya as high as it is and with local providers beating<br>> their tariffs they may have opted to drop this service.
<br>> What this might do, is it might leave AT&T US based<br>> customers unable to call the US using their AT&T calling<br>> cards for what would otherwise be exorbitant prices. <br>> <br>> The wording of the AT&T notice on the lack of no future
<br>> support for calls originating from Kenya wasn't very<br>> clear and after some digging around it appears that it<br>> referred to users of AT&T who utilize call back services<br>> while traveling overseas, it might just be due to stiff
<br>> competition now that VOIP has been deregulated and<br>> tariffs have fallen (though not low enough) and that no<br>> one in their right mind would be willing to pay $3+
per<br>> minute for a call to the US when for a extremely small<br>> fraction one could make the same phone call at a lower<br>> rate. <br>> <br>> Even then the tariffs in general are not fair enough for<br>
> Kenyan consumers and it is an uphill battle to enforce<br>> changes when some of the largest tax payers happen to be<br>> communication providers. It is unthinkable that the<br>> government would do much to jeopardize a large and steady
<br>> tax revenue stream to save the honorable consumer.<br>> Increasingly huge profits in a formerly depressed and now<br>> recovering economy like ours raise the question whether<br>> the consumer is getting a fair deal. It is akin to oil
<br>> companies making several times over some nations GDP in<br>> profits and claiming that they are struggling themselves<br>> and offering the best prices possible. Price regulation<br>> in the industry is something that should be looked
into<br>> to further to try and strike a fair balance between<br>> consumers needs and investors return on equity. <br>> <br>> Mike<br>> <br>> On 2/18/07, Alex Gakuru <<a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="mailto:alex.gakuru@yahoo.com">
