With data rates and call rates coming down on the postpaid lines, it is quite a surprise that M1 decided to increase the rate to 20 cents per minute for the first minute. Is M1 forcing users to abandon prepaid and go for postpaid ? If yes, wouldn’t it be better if M1 offers M1 prepaid users to port over their lines to postpaid with credits along to offset their plan ?
