On August 15, despite ongoing antimonopoly investigations, the state telecommunications provider "Aztelecom," under the Ministry of Digital Development and Transport, has raised its tariffs for gigabit passive optical network (GPON) services.

Starting today (August 15, 2024), the tariffs of internet providers in our country are increasing. That is, after the changes proposed by internet providers, the current minimum tariff for fiber-optic internet services with a speed of 40 Mbit/s and a monthly fee of 18 manats will be replaced by a tariff with a speed of 100 Mbit/s and a monthly fee of 25 manats. To explain it in simple terms, Aztelecom and Baktelecom are saying, "I am canceling the 40 Mbit/s speed and selling internet with a minimum speed of 100 Mbit/s. I no longer have a low-speed internet package." With this, both the speed and the price are increased.
