Council’s Chief Executive, Seema Shandil

Consumer Council of Fiji has applauded Digicel Fiji’s Dream Data Deal and have called for other network service providers to follow suit.

Council’s Chief Executive, Seema Shandil says the Dream Data Deal by Digicel Fiji is a huge step towards making internet affordable for all Fijians.

She adds the internet is having a profound impact on the way we live and work in the new normal and the Council believes the Fijian people are ready and confident for a digital future.

Shandil says initiatives such as this will ensure that every Fijian can subscribe to data plans and not fork out exorbitant amounts of their hard-earned money.

She says Digicel Fiji must be commended for its transparency in data costs and no Out-of-Bundle data costs because they have heard the plight of their customers and are ensuring that consumers do not get hit with ridiculous charges once their data plan expires.
