Movistar is already applying the price hike for miMovistar Max subscribers (fibre package and mobile) paying €3 more from €54.90 to €57.90. Movistar Ilimitado goes from €69.90 to €74.90 and Movistar Ilimitado X2 from €84.90 to €90.90.

From January 22nd, Vodafone will increase its fees between €3.90 and €7.20 in convergent packages. In March Orange will increase its fees.
