MTN Reduced their Data Plan – Now 1GB goes for N1000

I’ve never been a fan of MTN data plans, because MTN data zaps a lot. Their 1.5GB at N1000 doesn’t even last for more than 3 days when I subscribe to it. People also complain that their 3GB data don’t even last you for 14days talk less of 30days. As if that is not enough, MTN now add salt to the injury by restructuring their data plan again.

I suspected this earlier but just decided to wait for their official sms. MTN will be modifying 1.5GB data plan for N1000 and 3.5GB for N2000.

Y’ello! From Oct, 7, we’re modifying the 1.5GB plan to give you 1GB +500MB bonus only at night (1am-7am)when you buy or renew…

For the 1.5GB, it is now 1GB all day + 500MB Bonus usable from 1am – 7am.

For the 3.5GB, it is now 2.5GB all day + 1GB bonus usable from 1am – 7am

Meaning N1000 now gives you 1GB + 500MB bonus (usable only at night). If you consume your 1GB without browsing from 1am – 7am, your bonus of 500MB won’t be deducted but will just be looking at you eyeball to eyeball.

The same thing is applicable to the N2000 plan. This is one of the reason I always advice you patronize third party agent that gives you 1GB for N600, 2GB for N1100 usable any time of the day and valid for 3 Months.

Considering that we are officially out of recession, I strongly kick against this decision by MTN, because things are suppose to be cheaper now, and not the other way around.
What’s your take on the matter?
