Don't know about the rest of Africa, but in Cape Verde I was paying 15 euros for 5 gigabytes of 3G bandwidth. I was buying two of those cards per month on average, which was on par with an internet bill in the US or in Europe.
- mslot 12y agoExcept, corrected for average purchasing power in Cape Verde, that's about 10 times more expensive.
- imanaccount247 12y agoOn par with an internet bill that provides far more than 10GB of data. I get 300GB for that price for example, and anything I transfer at night doesn't count towards that cap.
- calinet6 12y agoBut you're getting that bandwidth in Africa, so honestly that's not bad. Not really a fair and equal comparison...
- imanaccount247 12y agoBut the claim was the Africa doesn't need better internet because they have 2g/3g. Go ask anyone in Africa if they wish they had more bandwidth, more data, and lower prices.
