Do you think banks need to invest/loan Econet money before they can utilise the network to reach their (banks') clients? What is this: the Mafia? In that line of thinking, what stops Econet from blocking calls originating from these banks? All I'm saying is Econet should charge the banks a fair amount to use USSD, no one is saying they will use the service for free. Outright denial of access is plain wrong.
In this new world the customer ... is the KING!Not if the only choice is EcoCash. Why is Econet afraid of a little competition, especially, as you say, the banks have a smaller customer base?
