Axxess Mobile Data Price Increase up to 31%?

[SweetFennyAdams]

Now the double your data special has ended and they only give you 75% bonus data, it appears their mobile data prices have increased as well, and without warning.

Is this a result of the recent MTN data price increases, due to them piggy-backing as an APN off the MTN network.

Here is a table of the old prices, still advertised on their mobile advertising page (see attached), and the new prices you are actually billed when topping up.

250 + 187 MB (R29 Old) (No longer offered)
500 + 375 MB (R48 Old) (R59 New) 22.91% increase
1 + 0.75 GB (R79 Old) (R99 New) 25.31% increase
2 + 1.5 GB (R139 Old) (R169 New) 21.58% increase
4 + 3.0 GB (R269 Old) (R329 New) 22.30% increase
6 + 4.5 GB (R379 Old) (R499 New) 31.66% increase
8 + 6.0 GB (R499 Old) (R599 New) 20.04% increase
10 + 7.5 GB (R579 Old) (R699 New) 20.72% increase
12 + 9.0 GB (679 Old) (R799 New) 17.67% increase

Hi SweetFennyAdams

Please note that the attached image (Clip.jpg) refers to the monthly package prices. Topup prices (as stated just above the image) are billed from R59 for 500MB). We have not increased the prices of our Mobile Data packages at all. The prices quoted above (as New) are in fact the price of the Topups.
