CBI Cancels USSD Payment Fees

The Central Bank of Iran has sent a directive to the banking system announcing that fees levied on payments made through mobile phones have been eliminated, in what can be interpreted as a blow to mobile operators.
The news had been circulating in local media outlets for the past few days, but had remained unconfirmed. CBI has yet to officially release a statement or the text of the directive itself, but reactions from beneficiaries confirm the news.
Way2Pay, a specialized news website, has corroborated the story quoting an unnamed CBI source.
