Minister Uraloğlu's Statement on 'Internet Prices'

Recently, complaints about 'high bills' have increased both for GSM companies and internet providers. Citizens sharing their bills on social media reacted to the figures.

Evaluating the issue, Minister Uraloğlu stated that the prices are a result of free market effects. Speaking before the parliamentary group meeting, Uraloğlu said the following about internet prices: Internet bills are completely a free market. This is a situation that arises from the renewal of one-year and two-year subscriptions. We do not have regulatory authority here. It is the competition of the free market.

"TARIFFS ARE ADJUSTED ACCORDING TO INFLATION"

Our citizens can find themselves facing a package that is much higher than the campaign they initially signed up for after joining with a certain campaign. In that sense, companies have started to organize certain campaigns again. However, our observation is that the regulation here is based on inflation, decisions made according to TEFE-TÜFE. However, there is no intervention from our side.

BILLS REACH 600-700 LIRAS

It is necessary to look at the subscription scope regarding these bills. Which package has transitioned to which. If the tariff changes in a two-year subscription, it is necessary to look at the difference in between. It would not be correct to evaluate based on the bill.
