Interview: Tariffic CEO Antony Seeff on SA's mobile operators

Loading player...
Thank you for listening to the TechCentral podcast. In this episode, Duncan McLeod interviews Antony Seeff, CEO of Tariffic, the company that helps companies and individuals determine if they’re spending too much on their phone bills.
In the discussion, Seeff talks about South Africa’s big four mobile operators and how they stack up against each other in terms of customer service, price and network quality.
Why do consumers not switch en masse to cheaper options in the market? Who is winning the war for customers’ wallets? And what are the companies doing right and wrong?
Seeff also talks about KidTech, Tariffic’s mobile phone that it hopes will cut down on the scourge of cyberbullying in South Africa.
It’s a great podcast – don’t miss it!
