Docomo's ahamo plans to cost 165 yen more from December
Original: Docomo's 'ahamo' to See Price Hike from December, but Modest 165 Yen Monthly Increase Suggests Rival Carrier Competition in Mind!? Old OCN Mobile ONE Plans Also Affected
NTT Docomo will raise the monthly price of its ahamo mobile service from December, with the increase limited to 165 yen. Legacy OCN Mobile ONE plans are also affected. The small size of the hike is being read as an attempt to keep the budget brand competitive against rival carriers, as Japanese operators weigh price changes amid pressure on mobile fees.
Why now: Japanese mobile users are watching carrier pricing closely, so even a modest fee increase on a budget brand draws attention.
