Falling average revenue per user (ARPU) are being felt by all providers, as people are being more careful with their money. There has also been a shift of people moving off postpay contract deals with the networks, back onto prepay deals in a bid to save money and more cost efficient.
This “voluntary” redundancies wil take about a month to sort out with staff and unions, with talks expected to start soon.
