Equitel - M-Pesa battle heats up as Safaricom raises M-Pesa termination fees

Equitel has silently hiked up the amount it charges to send money to M-Pesa, leading to a rise of more than 100% and even 200% depending on the amount you are sending. Equity Bank says it charges remain about KSh. 30, but the extra costs are what Safaricom is levying them to accept M-Pesa deposits from Equitel http://www.infotake.co.ke/2015/08/equitel-users-silently-hit-by-100.html -- with Regards: blog.denniskioko.com <http://www.denniskioko.com/>

I find it suspicious that Equitel did the price increment silently. Do we not have laws compelling service providers especially those of mass products to announce increments just as loudly as they announce entry into the market?

All my bank to Mpesa transfers from NIC bank have also increased. Used to be 66 now I think its 69. I hear the Kenya Bankers are also in the drawing board to cut down Mpesa influence. ./Ok3ch On Fri, Aug 21, 2015 at 11:52 AM, Kennedy Kairu Kariuki via skunkworks < skunkworks@lists.my.co.ke> wrote:

Equitel has silently hiked up the amount it charges to send money to M-Pesa, leading to a rise of more than 100% and even 200% depending on the amount you are sending.
Equity Bank says it charges remain about KSh. 30, but the extra costs are what Safaricom is levying them to accept M-Pesa deposits from Equitel http://www.infotake.co.ke/2015/08/equitel-users-silently-hit-by-100.html
