MNOs in talks with NTRA to hike call, internet prices

Mobile network operators want you to pay more for calls and data: Orange, Vodafone, and Etisalat Misr are in talks with the National Telecommunications Regulatory Authority to increase what they charge for both voice calls as well as internet services, active NTRA Executive President Mustafa Abdul Wahid tells Ahram Gate. It’s unclear how much of an increase the MNOs are angling for, but as we noted last week, ADSL prices are already slated to rise after industry players became subject themselves to the VAT.
