The Postal and Telecommunications Regulatory Authority of Zimbabwe (POTRAZ) says that it is working on measures that will allow citizens to obtain passports and other official documents at post offices across the country. POTRAZ director-general Gift Machengete had this to say
<blockquote>Potraz, in partnership with government’s designated postal operator, Zimpost, is working on a model post office project, where post offices will be transformed to offer e-government and e-commerce services all under one roof.
Instead of incurring transport costs to the Registrar General’s office, under the project, communities will be able to apply for passports, birth and death certificates and other government services at postal outlets.</blockquote>

Govt Plans To Provide Passports Through Zimpost: POTRAZ

The Postal and Telecommunications Regulatory Authority of Zimbabwe (POTRAZ), Director General, Gift Machengete, has said that postal and courier services as still relevant in the modern world. In recent years the volume of postal and courier services has continued to decline due to technological advancement. The advent of the internet, social media platforms and mobile telecommunication has rendered postal services almost obsolete. Speaking at the World Post Day Celebrations held in Mudzi last Friday, Machengete said
<blockquote>Let us celebrate trust, reliability and security as trademarks of postal services worldwide. Let us celebrate the postman and post-woman who carried all the sorrows, good news, all the worries and all the hopes. Postal services have created the world, changed the world and brought us where we are today.</blockquote>

Facebook-based retail business, Zimbo Shopper has apologised to its customers and potential customers for the bad service they have received recently. The page apologised for the rude and obnoxious posts and replies on its Facebook page which the company blamed on a disgruntled employee who wanted to sabotage the company. In an apology, the page wrote
Good evening my fellow Zimbabweans.
<blockquote>I’m the owner of ZimboShopper. I would like to offer my sincere apologies for the offensive posts made by a disgruntled employee at our SA office who runs our Facebook page. I was only made aware of the posts by a client who has been with us since I started the company 5 years back. Our clients would tell you that, these posts don’t reflect our values and goes against all the efforts that we have put building this business. It’s not always possible for me to directly monitor the activities on this page as do work elsewhere. I’m quite shaken and I’m making this a police case as the aim of the employee was to destroy the business.
ZimboShopper serves all Zimbabweans from all walks of life and don’t discriminate on income basis. I personally grew up in high-density area of Glen Norah. Even though I have fallen victim, my heart goes to all who have been on the receiving end of these vicious attacks. I apologize.</blockquote>

Mobile network operator Telecel has introduced new voice bundles which include 1-hour talk time for only 50 cents for Telecel to Telecel calls.
<h5>In a statement, Telecel said:</h5>
<blockquote>Mobile Operator Telecel Zimbabwe has announced the launch of its much awaited on-net voice bundles that will see subscribers getting up to 2 500 minutes talk-time coupled with longer validity periods of up to one month.
Telecel’s on-net voice bundles allow subscribers to call telecel numbers at heavily discounted rates throughout the day. The on-net voice bundles come in various denominations namely $0.50, $1, $3, $5 and $10 which allow subscribers to call telecel numbers for up to 60 minutes, 150 minutes, 500 minutes, 1200 minutes and 2 500 minutes respectively.
The Telecel on-net voice bundles caters for subscribers with different usage patterns by allowing subscribers to call at discounted rates throughout the day and offering extended validity periods of up to 30 days.
“As Telecel, we acknowledge the rapid growth of data but through engagement with our customers and through deliberations on our various platforms, the issue of having an affordable voice package that allows subscribers to actually call for longer kept coming up hence the launch of this exciting on-net voice offer,” said Telecel’s Communications and Branding Director Obert Mandimika.
“We structured our on-net voice bundles in such a way that they allow flexibility to subscribers by making them usable throughout the whole day and making them valid for up to 30 days. The flexibility offered by our on-net voice bundles ensure that we have catered for different market segments with special focus on individuals, entrepreneurs, small businesses and even small to medium corporate entities that still depend heavily on voice calls as they conduct their day to day business activities,” said Mr Mandimika.
Over the years mobile operator Telecel Zimbabwe has come to be known for providing value through its product offering such as the popular MegaBonus and MegaBoost packages. Telecel has continued with this trend by recently launching the Power Hour data bundles available on their *470# menu and the On-net Voice bundles.
To subscribe to Telecel’s on-net voice bundles, Telecel prepaid subscribers should dial *146# and choose their specific bundle option</blockquote>

Speaking to TechZim, Dembare Dotcoms Facebook page creator and main administrator, Va Shagare said that he suspected that a prophet, reporters and a senior politician were behind the page’s disappearance.
Here’s Va Shagare’s full response:
<blockquote>We know we have been a marked page especially our coverage of the Warriors. We suspect that the page was reported. We are however trying to appeal but as you know Facebook has a serious red tape issue and disturbing if not annoying customer care. We are hopeful that we will win but in the meantime we have started a new home after an outcry from our supporters and many others.
But we strongly suspect a certain snr sports reporter , a prophet and a politician are heavily involved. We exonerate Dynamos FC, Caps United or Bosso fans.</blockquote>

<blockquote>Telecel Zimbabwe which is exhibiting at this year’s ZITF in Bulawayo has announced the re-introduction of their popular Mega Bonus promotion which allows the company’s pre-paid subscribers to make local calls across all networks for double the value of the airtime they purchase.
The re-introduced Mega Bonus Promotion gives Telecel customers 100% bonus for all airtime denominations of a $1 or more. The validity period for the bonus airtime varies depending on the recharge value but ranges between 1 day and 7 days.
“Telecel is excited to announce the re-introduction of MegaBonus which gives 100% bonus across all local networks. The re-introduction of MegaBonus Promotion with 100% bonus for off and on-net calls is a direct response to feedback from our customers as well as a deliberate consolidation of our brand promise of value and affordability in all our offerings,” said Telecel Communications and Branding Director, Obert Mandimika.
The mobile company which is exhibiting at this year’s ZITF has said that the launch of MegaBonus at ZITF is coinciding with the exhibitions theme ‘harnessing linkages for industrial development”.
“Telecel believes that as a mobile telecommunications company our job is to keep the price of connectivity low in order to help facilitate social and business related communication over our platform for the benefit of our customers. This year’s ZITF theme ‘harnessing linkages for industrial development’ sums up how we view Telecel’s role in supporting the Zimbabwean population and economy,” commented Telecel CEO, Mrs. Angeline Vere.
“The relaunch of MegaBonus and the 100% bonus across all networks is part of a company-wide commitment to ensuring Telecel continues to offer value to its customers through affordable branded services and products. The affordability that MegaBonus brings in addition to our other offerings will be appreciated by our customers who want to stretch the worth of every dollar to cushion them in our current economic circumstances,” added Vere.
Telecel’s MegaBonus Promotion instantly offers 100% bonus with every recharge. The recharge denominations currently guaranteeing 100% bonus under the promotion are the $1, $2, $5, $10 and the $20. MegaBonus is available to Telecel’s pre-paid customers who recharge using scratch cards, Telecash and electronic vouchers.
Telecel is currently the only mobile network in Zimbabwe offering on and off-net bonus upon recharging. The return of Mega Bonus closely follows the recent launch of another value-for-money offer from Telecel called Mega Boost which is a combo package offering very competitive rates for voice, data and SMS services and accessed by simply dialling *480#. This means Telecel effectively now has a full range of packages to cater for different segments of the market.</blockquote>

State owned mobile phone network, NetOne, says it has reintroduced low priced data packages as part of its efforts to offer affordable products. In a statement on Wednesday, NetOne said it had captured many new subscribers in the aftermath of the recent aborted attempts to increase mobile data floor prices.
The mobile phone operator said following the public outcry that led to the reversal of the new data floor prices announced by the industry regulator, it had come up with attractive packages that resonate with the expectations of Zimbabweans in the face of the prevailing liquidity challenges.
The Postal and Telecommunications Regulatory Authority had directed that all mobile phone operators increase voice and data floor prices to 12 cents per minute and 2 cents per megabyte, respectively from January 9, 2017. Floor prices are the minimum prices operators charge per minute of voice call or megabyte of data.

NetOne reintroduces low-priced data packages

In the last few minutes, I have conversed with the Potraz Chairman and with the kind permission of the Acting Minister of ICT, Postal &amp; Courier Services, Cde Prisca Mupfumira, I have directed an immediate suspension of the tariff increases that were effected two days ago, to the dismay of many mobile phone users.
I have been told that the new prices were actually proposed by the mobile operators to the regulator. While it is conceivable that the price of data may go up, the margin by which the prices have gone up is shockingly high and can only reflect insensitivity to fellow Zimbabweans and gluttonous corporate greed.
Internet is now a key driver of economic growth – innovation, entrepreneurship and government service delivery. Internet access is at the centre of all development. It therefore follows that it must be accessible – physically and financially. I share and sympathise with concerns expressed by a multitude of Zimbabwean internet users that the recently effected data prices are unparalleled and extortionist. 
Unreasonable data prices, especially in a high literacy country like ours, undermine our huge investments in human capital, broadband infrastructure and the ability to attract investment.
My Ministry’s Innovation Fund initiative, which has raised more than $6 million to date, is premised on affordable broadband and growth opportunities in on-line enterprises in Zimbabwe and beyond.
On the occasion of the official opening of the Chikato Community Information Centre in Masvingo last month, our President, His Excellency Cde Robert Mugabe, spoke passionately about his desire to bring marginalized communities, especially in rural areas, onto the information superhighway. This in itself, is instructive that broadband access must be affordable.
Given the astronomical rates that have been charged over the last two days, it may be necessary and morally correct to get the concerned mobile networks to refund their subscribers. This shall be on the agenda when I undertake a comprehensive review of the developments of the last two days on the first day of my return from leave on January the 30th.
Let me take this opportunity to wish all Zimbabweans, a happy and stress-free new year.
Ends.
