Airtel Uganda, one of the prominent telecommunications companies in the country has increased its data bundle prices effective 17th October 2022. The new changes will affect all Airtel data bundle packages grouped into Daily bundles, weekly bundles, monthly bundles, and Chillax bundles. The announcement was made a few months after the giant telco doubled daily internet bundles and increased the one on SUPA-combos sevenfold for the same price.

Technically, the prices of the Data bundles were not altered. However, Airtel data subscribers can now get fewer MBS for the usual prices. Simply it, the mega bites were minimized but the original price has been maintained.

For instance, subscribers would previously get 80 MBS at UGX 500. Currently, they will only get 70 MBS losing out on the 10 MBS. Also, before the changes, Airtel data customers would get 750MBs at UGX 2,000. The data package for that price has since dropped to 500MBs.
