MTN INCREASE FEES DUE TO INFLATIONARY PRESSURES!!!!

MTN informed consumers that their contract fees will increase on 1 May with 4% due to inflationary pressures. How on earth can you go into a contract and then can one party just change terms? I wish we can inform MTN that we as consumers are going to pay 4% less as from 1 May due to inflationary pressures. This action of MTN is unacceptable.
