Как says on the company website, these changes will also affect the cost of providing services.
“From February 1, 2017, we are forced to increase the subscription fee for telecommunications services to an average of 6%. The increase will affect part of the “TV”, “Internet”, “TV + Internet” packages and additional packages – “Sports” and “Football HD,” the press service of “Svoboda” notes.
The provider explains this step by the difficult economic situation.
“Compared to January 2016, heat tariffs increased by 18%, electricity by 24%, the dollar exchange rate against the hryvnia increased by 13%, and a significant part of our expenses is the foreign currency component. The inflation rate is 11,4% (for 11 months of 2016). We have new contractual relationships with Ukrainian media groups. We want you to continue watching all popular Ukrainian TV channels,” company representatives say.
