TurkNet, one of Turkey’s leading internet service providers, has announced a price increase in its subscription fees. Alongside this important development for internet users, TurkNet also offers a special alternative for subscribers who do not want to be affected by the price hike.
TurkNet has revealed its new tariffs for Fiber (100 Mbps) and GigaFiber (1000 Mbps) subscriptions, which will be effective from February 2024. With this update, the monthly subscription fees for popular packages have increased from 299.00 TL to 399.90 TL. However, TurkNet provides a solution for subscribers who do not want to be affected by the price increase. Both existing and new subscribers can benefit from the option of an annual upfront payment and continue to enjoy the old tariff, i.e., 299.00 TL.
It is expected that this price increase reflects the general cost increases and operational expenses in the industry. The growth in internet usage and the acceleration of digitalization processes in recent years have increased the demand for internet services. TurkNet’s price update may influence the competition and cost dynamics in the sector.
The annual upfront payment option offered by TurkNet can create an attractive alternative, especially for cost-conscious users. Subscribers who do not want to be affected by the price hike can continue to receive services at the old tariff, which fits their budgets.
TurkNet’s price update can be considered a significant turning point in the internet services market in Turkey. It is likely that other service providers will take similar steps, which will impact the dynamics of competition. Additionally, this price increase provides a perspective on how the overall costs of internet access and digital services are changing.
TurkNet’s move brings to light the cost and accessibility issues in the digital transformation process in Turkey. Since internet access has become a basic necessity today, such price changes can particularly affect low and middle-income households. Internet users are eagerly awaiting how they will adapt to the price change with the alternatives offered by TurkNet.
