Due to a major planned system upgrade, Ecocash subscribers will not be able to use the mobile money platform from 9 PM on Saturday 16 November to 9 PM Sunday 17 November.

This was revealed in a customer public notice by Ecocash and during the period all Ecocash services will be unavailable.

In July this year, Ecocash customers across the nation experienced an outage and failed to transact leaving some stranded as it is the widely used mobile money platform in the nation.

This was due to a power cut which was then later fixed.

As they say, foretold is forewarned to make sure that if you are planning on doing any transaction during the said period, you will have an alternative payment platform.
