Yesterday state-owned telecoms company TelOne announced that it would be increasing package prices at the end of the month. This move has stirred local competitor ZOL to do the same. However, if you remember ZOL increased their package prices marginally last month but this one seems to be closely aligned with the hike that TelOne put out.
Dear Valued Customer,
This email serves to notify you of a price adjustment on all our products and services effective 1 October 2021. This price adjustment is consistent with ZOL Zimbabwe’s continued efforts to offer reliable service.
For more information on the price adjustment visit our website at www.zol.co.zw
Please be advised that all Unlimited Fibronike and Wibroniks subscriptions will be billed at the new price from 1 October 2021 and any prepayments must be made against an invoice for the prepayment period.ZOL
Thank you for your business and continued support.
Regards, TeamZOL
So was ZOL waiting for TelOne to make a move and then substantially increase prices? Who knows, whatever the case, here are the new ZOL internet package prices that will take effect on the 1st of October 2021:

This is all due to the fake exchange rate maintained by Mthuli. Now prices are increasing in USD just to match the parallel market rate
Maiweh!, the cheapest we can get for unlimited is USD205? Not to mention the rtgs prices not being at the official exchange rate. Why is it so costly to have internet in Zimbabwe?, it should be a regular monthly bill that’s affordable. To think how cheap it is to have unlimited WiFi in other countries. Who provides these services to Zim anyway?, why do they charge so much?, maybe they need to use the same internet source as south africa cause it’s very affordable to have unlimited data and WiFi there

Well there are the market leaders ….wink wink
For all those telone haters
It’s 6000rtgs for 200gb compared to 11000rtgs 150gb zol.
Leading all the way.
I tried to switch to zol a few times before I realised that they may sure they were 50% higher to telone on average…and as can be seen…as soon as telone raises they follow suit
Only in Zim do you have to work at least 2 jobs and have a side hustle, just to pay for internet so you can try and be a youtuber haha not worth it.
This new Zol price structure is now a bit expensive compared to Telecel Home Wi-Fi Data Bundles.
Telecel Home Wi-Fi Data
DATA PRICE VALIDITY
5GB – $1650 60DAYS
10GB – $2000 60DAYS
20GB – $3500 60DAYS
50GB – $5000 60DAYS
75GB – $6500 60DAYS
NB, for the benefit of those who didn’t know Telecel allows data rollover same as Zol

The TelOne Zol issue is more like the Apple Microsoft issue it all goes down to the target market simply put Zol targets the rich then TelOne is for the poor. Its more of a bragging threatric like the reason rich people use iphones whilst the common man is stuck with the low class china model phone (itel,techno,vivo etc). I think Zol should have reviewed their prices much high than the figures they posted still the rich folks are able to afford it
Kkkk
