Directive to review data prices came from NCA – MTN

Telecommunications giant MTN, has indicated that the upward review of their data prices is a directive from the National Communications Authority (NCA).

In an interaction with journalists on Thursday, General Manager, Regulator and Government Affairs at MTN, Samuel Bartels explained that the increase in data charges will help increase market competitiveness.

“When you rationalize your prices as we have done around what others are charging so that it’s at par at what others are charging, it obviously has the effect of making the market more competitive.

“When you are the bigger operator in any given market and your pricing is such that it is perceived as hard to compete with by others although there’s a logic behind your pricing, it is often seen no giving others the opportunity to pry some of the market from you or have a fair crack at enticing customers.”

Mr Sammy Bartels furthered that, “This is in line with the spirit of the regulators general direction of making the market more competitive.

“It gives the customer enough choices. It’s not necessarily price that becomes the differentiator but the quality of service you’re receiving from a particular operator that will determine who you’ll go with.”
