“Customers who will have subscribed for multiple days will have the liberty to enjoy their Supamoja until the end of their subscribed days. After Sunday, we will not be accepting any new subscriptions and customers that attempt to subscribe will receive an error message,” read the the note published Friday afternoon.

“We have revamped our Kwik-tok offer to consolidate some of the wins we had with Supamoja. Previously with Kwik-tok, one dialed *250# and received 20 free sms and 10 free minutes of talk at 250/=. With our revamped Kwik-tok offer, one dials *250# and for 250/=, they get 20 free sms, 100MB of data and calls to UTL at 1/= per second.

“This is a better offer as it combines both Kwik-tok old and Supamoja and we are sure it will catch on like wild fire.”
