Telkom South Africa announced on Tuesday that it will raise prices for its fixed broadband and voice services, effective April 1, 2025.

This decision comes in response to increasing operational costs and external economic pressures, including rising inflation, energy costs, and a weakened exchange rate.

Reasons behind the price adjustments

The price hikes are attributed to the economic challenges South Africa is facing.

Telkom noted, “South Africa continues to face economic challenges, including rising inflation, increasing energy costs, and a weakened exchange rate, all of which put pressure on businesses across various sectors”. These macroeconomic factors drive up the cost of delivering services, particularly in industries reliant on infrastructure, technology, and operational investments.

SMB fixed voice will see an average increase of 12 per cent for legacy products, 6 per cent for current products, and 6 per cent for PABX products.

Both consumer and SMB DSL services will experience a 12 per cent price increase, while fibre tariffs will rise by an average of 6 per cent.
