Ministry of Transportation begins collecting overdue service fees
The ministry will coordinate with government institutions to restrict transactions for individuals and companies defaulting on payments.
• The Ministry of Transportation said that to safeguard public funds, it will implement several precautionary measures, including activating an automated disconnection process starting in early December.
The Ministry of Transportation announced in a press statement that it began collecting financial dues for services provided to individuals and companies early last month. It noted that in recent days, notifications were sent to subscribers via the government’s ‘Sahel’ program, urging them to promptly settle outstanding payments for services rendered by the Ministry of Communication, according to Al Anba newspaper.
The ministry emphasized that to safeguard public funds, it will implement several precautionary measures, including activating an automated disconnection process starting in early December. It clarified that this process will apply to all subscribers who have not paid their accumulated annual contributions, whether for domestic or commercial services.
The ministry further stated that if a subscriber fails to settle the financial dues for any services, all services to the subscriber will be suspended. These services will only be reinstated once all outstanding amounts have been fully paid.
As part of its measures to ensure the collection of financial dues from third parties, the ministry will coordinate with government institutions to impose restrictions on all government transactions of individuals and companies that default on payments. These restrictions will remain in place until the outstanding amounts for services provided by the ministry are settled.
The ministry added that in the coming days, it will send a second notification via the government’s ‘Sahel’ program to inform subscribers of the exact amounts due.
Subscribers are urged to respond promptly to these notifications and pay their dues early to ensure uninterrupted telephone services, avoid inclusion in the automated disconnection process, and prevent restrictionson other government transactions.
