Econet Wireless has cancelled contract line arrangements for its customers and however placed them on a pre-paid platform.
The company had initially said that the date for the start of the migration from post-paid to pre-paid would be 1 December 2019 but has now rescheduled it to 1 February 2020 to allow subscribers to plan accordingly for the advance payments.
In a correspondence to contract subscribers which was sent out on 26 November 2019, the acting Chief Operations Officer for Econet Wireless, Kezito Makuni said that Econet requires that all subscribers pay for usage in advance.
He added that the amount paid would be credited to the subscriber’s account and would ensure that the customer receives uninterrupted service during the upcoming month of usage.
