At the same time that it is faced with accusations of swindling its customers and giving them substandard services, Airtel Malawi has secretly adjusted the price of its internet bundles.
A price list made accessible to Malawi24 has disclosed that the company which has been failing in service delivery of rate has scrapped off some bundles while maintaining others although at a new price.
The most shocking thing is that Airtel has hiked the prices without the knowledge of its customers as it made no announcement.
“I was shocked when I wanted to get a bundle and I saw a different price,” a frustrated customer spoke to this publication.
Customers who got a message from the company disclosed that they had only been told of a service disruption in the purchase of bundles but got no message on the hike.
“This feels like an ambush, they just did it without telling us,” said an unhappy customer.
Among the bundles hiked there is the 1GB weekly bundle which has moved from K1950 to K2500. The Night Chilaz monthly bundle has moved from K950 to K1100.
Poor timing… witchcraft is for real
Internet yake yovutayi nkaleyi kumakwezaso ma bundle,mukufunika deliverance.
TNM is better than airtel wen it comes to internet
Too bad! In quest for more profits I assume
Ati panet my ass,back to tnm trying to make my life better.

Kutikawa..kutikolopola,kutifwamba,…
If u have genuine complaints against Airtel, u are free to switch on to TNM where u will enjoy real value for ur money service.
A communication service provider that doesn’t communicate to its valued customers about a new development. Shametel.
Poor service
This company is for well to do pple,when we talk of internet,if you purchase 10mb bundle it lasts 30seconds yet the same bundle from tnm 2hrs,this company z here to steal from Malawians.

Look for more internet services providers because where there’s a competition, they will be left out of service then they will upgrade to attract customers. I don’t know anything coming Africa is to cheat thinking we don’t know our right. Send them pack.
Secretly? It. Was in the Newspapers. TNM raised first and people were informed on the very first day it all started.
TNM is better than Airtel even on their mpamba and Airtel money charges when paying households things TNM is way better
Good things are expensive you know. Airtel Money is secured and money does not hang like TNM does. Network is always guaranteed.
They are fucking useless
Kuba basi
i blame Nicholas Dausi 4 this,why bombastic words all the tym?
Be careful with what you read in online newspapers. The article fails to point out that some rates have actually gone down. For example, the price for 4 Gb over 30 days was K10600 or thereabouts. The near-replacement is “3.5GB, 30 days, K7000”, which is cheaper per Gb.
you work with Airtel
Stop telling us lies,Airtel is going down,Useless network ever mxiim
Martha Chimwaza Please point out where I lied in my post. Thanks
Za ma gb za anthu olemra tikambe za osauka amene tima user ma mbs amene akwezao 50mb’s mpaka k300
Airtel has done it….. but tnm services are even worse.
please work out your network
RUBISH NETWORK
Anthu amenewa nd akuba
Airtel is a treasure looter. I question the position of our leaders on this, and not only the current “rulership”. It seems Airtel is the company that has been legalised to swindle Malawians. LEGAL THEFT
they notified in advance through the papers
Well, it might be good to them.But it is not fair. The services are poor.
Airtel is so doomed its been months and months calling them to replace my simcard koma up to now they have not replaced it and i have to ride a bus to Lilongwe just to have my simcard replaced because their office its in Lilongwe?or even if your phone is stolen they tell u stories about sending the files to their head office in Lilongwe like really?Their customer services is very very poor and rude they even cut you off in the middle of a conversation the only thing I now rely on is TNM,achigulitsaso dikilani muone!!!
Thieves !
When they hike prices and we suffer in silence. Tsk tsk
The service has become completely rubish and they got an answer for all questions they are third in line after Escom and Waterboard
Iiiii,Airtel ilipo?
Kumatchola ma kad nkutaya,,,,kut apse ntima
Airtel and TNM..Mbava ziwiri zazikulu m’Malawi.
Kukhala Mmalawi ndi kulimba mtima eeh!!!!

Communication is very expensive in Malawi perhaps only government enjoy tax returns from these network providers otherwise why not acting on the betterment of poor citizens

Malawians need to wakeup cos we naturaly have a poor sight that will never see beyond our nostrils. Celtel, Zain, Airtel &……….. ?. I don’t know how honest was MRA on what we were made to believe about what our Service Providers called the Spying Machine?. I little bit by bit we’re now caughtup in a tangle of the two when now see Airtel taking it upon their Customers that we are visibly robed in broad daylight.
Some one yesterday send me k2000 airtime today by 3 pm akuti a customer onjezelani kapena mukongole koma oyimbilana osakwana five. A Malawi tilimbe pothawila
Si eyatelo?osaiwala kale inali Airtel kkkkkkk mavuto.

As far as I know the problem is on our currency! Every where now days to use social media it’s expensive here in Africa.
Ine nnawayimbira koma mpaka pano kuli ziii, ma bundle anga sakundiuza kuti ankera kwani
Bola airtel….tnm ndiye worse..
” a company too big enough to give you every service you want is as strong enough to rob you every thing you have- Kachaje”…..
u see now what is happening,……airtel which has been there giving you promotions … cheap bundles ooooh yes those night bundles including sexy marketing ladies to coax you like their company.. but later here they are robbing you millions nd millions…..are u surprised?……search me either
Hahahahah
Eee tifanane!ine ndima user TNM pano tnazolowera ife coz mitengo ya Data Bundle anatikwezera kalekale.paja ambiri mnathawa kkkkk
Vuto si Airtel Vuto Ndife Posankha
If u buy a bundle the network will show E most of the time but on normal data charges it will show H+ ,atleast they should b honest with us.
nawonso ajayira hev……
Hey! Malawi 24, check your language plz.why can’t you go back to class?
Lets use witchcraft now to avoid these sub stardard service providers! If we can nurture our philosophy of witchcraft we can access all necessary communications through it so lets join hands in developing; Witchbook,Whatswitch,Instawitch, Viberwitch,Witchnet,Witchfax etc. All of these could be accessible with no strings attached. Malawians let us wake up and design our own Witchphone to access all these services without electricity at all!
So We Can Use Electriwitch.Kkkkkkkk! I Like This.
I have also liked it. Because its African technology, you’ll see govt saying no. But witchcraft can be faster and cheaper as long as we don’t kill a person.
in science its magic
This technology could be user friendly,imagine no regulatory bodies,upgrading system excuses,no tarrif charges, no sim registration, no congestion at all. Once you are logged in you’ll enjoy a life long connection,it could be a unique service void of squeezing your budgets.
Kkkkkkkkkkk guys mwaitha heavy i like it. When to be start?
nde witch everything izigwira usiku okhaokha tu coz witchcraft ndi usiku basi,komanso tiziimba tili naked coz network izithawathawa tikakhala kuti tavala…..kkkkkk

Mmmm This Company is not good at All,Amaba Ma bundle samawonetsa Kut bundle yanu ili motani at the same time akutibera Akutibera Airtime,Now My Question is this Kod Mudzasiya liti kutiberaku?
Airtel probably the worst network in the world
NETWEK YOKHAYO YODALILIKA MUNoMMALAWiILOVE IT!!!
I think it is another Air tel bundle cash gate. to say the fact, it is not really enjoyable like before.
Just bought internet bundle weekly at K300 just 3 minutes ago and its gone even without attaching my document. Airtel but how??????
At least weekly upward would not let you down Boss; you may wish to try it. The lesser values work better in non android gadgets.
Sometimes it’s bcoz of data settings. If u r using android device, try to ‘restrict background data’.
With Firefox on my desktop, I generally block images, most scripts, and use an ad blocker. Those really help to eke out a data bundle. (EDIT: And do not download videos unless your bundle is about to expire and you want to squander whatever is left of it.)
Well done airtel that’s way to go next time make it double,if it were ufa tikanadandaula
No, the service is not up to date, we loose our data bundles by browsing when network isn’t available.
Leo Mpoya don’t worry just migrate to other service provider chief it’s simple
mukuona ngati anthu onse angakwanise?
koma yeeeee
EVERY TIME I RECHARGE…MTN IS GIVING ME FREE DATA AND FREE AIRTIME.
Ndiye zugwirizana chiyani ndi airtel?
WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT FROM INDIANS?

we don’t need to show our anger on social media,we need to match to their head office and show them we are angry.
Why cant we just take their sim cards and drop them deliberately in toilets.
gud idea,, but we have to throw them ku office kwawo.
Hahah paja ma demo alipaliponseno
