Cross-group tariffs: good PR but not much else
Opinion by Emeka Obiodu, senior analyst at Ovum
Prior to 2006, roaming used to be a convoluted process – at least that's
what operators claimed. And they could charge as much as they wanted. When the
EU began to ask for lower rates, operators retorted that roaming was expensive
to administer and difficult to implement. Then Zain (formerly Celtel) came along
with its ‘One Network' concept. It removed roaming charges for its customers
across Africa, demystified roaming and earned a resounding endorsement from The
Economist. The citation read: " Zain Group has in effect created a unified
market of the kind that regulators can only dream about in Europe."
