Well if you ever transacted in the past few days, you would have noticed a very big unpleasant change to the charges Ecocash is now charging. Where are we really going as a nation, is it a lack of worthy competitors, or government policies causing all these unrealistic charges. Apparently to transact $5 the charges are now about $2 that’s a 40% charge on a single transaction, all this is a result of the Digital Service Tax (DST) on top of the government tax and the service provider charges as well. Lack of clarity on actual charges is what is causing this uproar and the reasons for these ureasonable hikes yet to be disclosed to us, where will this money go and what will it be used for. Let’s take a look at what is really happening so we may try to get handle on the current situation.
