Financial Tribune - Major mobile operators MTN-Irancell and Mobile Telecommunications Company of Iran (MCI) have revised their pricing procedures making Internet services a bit costlier.

Operators usually offered special packages which enabled users to access Internet at relatively low rates. Now they have deleted the affordable packages in a manner that compels users to purchase more expensive services, Fararu reported.

One of the moves that triggered widespread criticism among Internet users was the MCI�s decision to omit all the packages with bandwidth caps of under 5 gigabytes per month with free nightly access.
