Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>Econet Wireless, which is the country\u2019s leading telecommunications company, says it will review voice, data and SMS prices in both Zimbabwe dollars and US dollars with effect from 16 November 2022.<\/p>\n

In a notice to its customers issued this Monday, 14 November, Econet said:<\/p>\n

Please note, we will review our ZWL & USD Voice, Data & SMS Bundle price effective, Wednesday 16 November 2022.<\/p>\n

Responding to social a media user who had asked why the telecoms company was increasing prices in USD considering that the greenback is a stable currency, Econet said:<\/p>\n

Take note that the tariff adjustment is necessitated by the increased operational costs as we want to continue providing exceptional services.<\/p>\n

On 1 November 2022, Econet increased its headline tariffs but did not adjust the cost of its promotional bundles.<\/p>\n

Since the start of this month, Econet customers have been paying $41.77 per minute, to make a voice call, up from $25.95.<\/p>\n

Data charges also went up to $6.6 per MB, up from $4.1 per MB, while sending an SMS was now costing $8.59 per message, up from $5.33.<\/p>\n
