Safaricom will from today (Friday) increase the price of new mobile phones by at least 10 percent and the cost of SIM cards by Sh50 setting up buyers for increased prices as it passes on the pain of the new taxes to consumers.
This means mobile phone users seeking to replace or register afresh for new Safaricom lines will pay more for the line while buyers of new Safaricom phones will dig deeper from their pockets.
