Competition between network providers in SA insufficient - report | IOL Business Report

JOHANNESBURG - Hard -pressed consumers are set for a big financial relief after the Competition Commission this week said it would compel mobile companies to slash data prices in a move supported by the government.

The commission also recommended that that local and national government, under the lead of the Department of Communications, actively support the development of free public WiFi in low-income areas, including commuter points like train stations and taxi ranks, as well as public spaces like parks, shopping areas and government service offices.

Ofentse Dazela, a director of pricing research at Africa Analysis, said Telkom remained aggressive in the market and continued to offer the lowest-priced data bundles both in the prepaid and post-paid segments. ”The operator’s FreeMe plans have also experienced good market reception thus far, and are driving up data traffic and underpinning this growth as well,” Dazela said.
