DATA PLANS

MTN offers a wide variety of economical data tariffs one may decided to use MTN Mobile Data service on a Pay-per-use basis (i.e according to existing tariff plan) or a Data Bundle/Plan. Either way you are not charged for the amount of time you spend like they do in cybercafe but, for the amount of data (volume) that you upload or download when using the MTN 3.5G or GPRS Data Service. Data bundles are ideal if you have an idea of how much you want to spend on data as well as how much data you need. These bundles have been designed to reduce the cost of data usage provided you stay within the bundle limits.

Each data bundle has an in-bundle rate and an out-of-bundle rate. You pay a flat fee for all data in-bundle, but as soon as your in-bundle limit for your subscription type is exceeded, the out-of-bundle rate will apply per MB.More>>>>
