Now with increments in taxes, air time scratch cards were affirmed and changed in terms of payments as follows;

Air time for USH 2000 increased to USH 2200
Airtime for USH 10000 increased to USH 11000

This suggestion came into existence with effect from 1st of July this year, through rumors that the Airtel company is responsible for these increments. This left many Ugandans worried and felt bad about this suggestion that was pinned up.

Airtel airtime scratch cards increased with 10%.

Most of the Airtel users are so sad after being charged with more than what they expecting, according to one of the journalists, Musisi Kiyinji who bought Air time at 2200 shillings instead of the 2000 that was paid normally.

Shockingly, the Airtel spokes woman, Sumim Namaganda convinced the public that the Air time increment wasn’t an order from the company, but the airtime sellers are the ones who came with this idea.
