For sure, they would have done all their projections and cash flows based on the assumption that prices will remain at 80k/sec. Things have actually changed now and I'm sure they didn't anticipate that MTN will drop prices so quickly. I once used to recharge my celtel line, but i've since moved to MTN. remember there are many others like me out there. The longer they waste time to react, their market share gets eroded. That's why i pity them.

Celtel will keep losing subs on a daily basis to MTN or Glo while they try to turn Vmo into a proper Cel-clone. Instead of looking at the GSM war that is breaking out all around them, they are busy launching Me2U and Celtel 50. All these are offered in every Celtel network. See the Nigeria page @
Celtel.com
@Amby ... vampire hours? Great name.
@Abu and others ooogling at us MTEL GPRS guys:
The party is over. MTEL cleared out my N410 yesterday when they started billing. I saw a "negative" balance of -N30.00 before i made enquiries. They are charging N6/minute...
And yes, I am upset.
@All "Glo vs MTN" is what I
wrote about this week.
Did you know Glo grew by over 3 million subs this year? Meanwhile MTN is yet to grab one million new subs since December 2005. As I wrote in the article, "MTN Strategists must be having sleepless nights... and a few ulcers."

MTN'S rate crash has extended to postpaid customers. Who can beat this?
Monthly Access: 1,500
MTN 2 MTN : 27k/sec
MTN 2 Others : 37k/sec
MTN 2 MTN SMS: N5
SMS 2 Others: N12
Int. calls: 67k/sec
GPRS: 60k/kb
Unlimited GPRS: N12,000/month
I called Glo customer care to inform them of these rates and warned them that I'll drop my postpaid line by month end if they have no response MTN's offer.
Good running MTN, keep it up!
@AYA Take a good look at these rates again. I really don't see the big advantage. U may get 33k/sec all-round for just N500 monthly access on the new Xtra Special product. Why are they keeping datas rate so high????
The rest are just tiny savings that may not amount to much. Most Big Boys cannot even send a proper SMS without assistance.

@coola: Why is this directed at me? That was brym!
But anyway, you must understand that brym! and I are a little different from the average consumer. Personally, I make VERY few calls. My GSM monthly bill from GloMobile usually indicates 85% of my usage is GPRS and 10% SMS. The rest is call usage.
I can guess that brym! was looking at the fixed monthly GPRS rate, because that's the attraction for me too. It currently beats what Starcomms, Multilinks, Intercellular, GloMobile - name it - are offering for internet access.
For me, a flat monthly billing for GPRS means bye-bye to obscene internet access spending! I have already approved for my key mobile staff to be allocated MTN contract lines and subscribe for the unlimited GPRS thing shortly.
If GloMobile responds before they do, we will share the cake between them and MTN. If they do not, too bad: MTN will carry the day.
