Leave a Comment / By /

MTN offers a variety of data plans and bundles that can be confusing to navigate. To ensure that you get the most out of your data subscription, it’s important to understand how the plans and bundles work.

MTN data plans come in three categories:
  • normal data plans,
  • social media plans, and
  • night plans.
 
Any data bundle you have, whether from subscription or data bonus, falls into one of these categories and is consumed by whichever plan came first.
For example: whenever I recharge MTN xtravalue voice of 500 Naira, it comes with a bonus data of 100mb which expires after one week. This 100mb bonus falls into the first category. assuming I already have a monthly data plan running, I will have to exhaust the monthly plan before I can use the 100mb bonus. Most of the times, the 100mb expires before I can use it.
 
MTN DATA

Another example, whenever I do 3500 Naira MTN Data4Me plan, it comes with 12GB normal data plan and YouTube night bonus of 12GB. Meanwhile, I YouTube night bonus from my previous plan is remaining 3GB. I discovered that although I had normal MTN data plan which can access YouTube at night normally, my previous YouTube night bonus kept reading while the new 12GB YouTube night bonus data was paused.

It’s important to plan your MTN data subscriptions, especially if you’re on a tight budget. Avoid having multiple data plans, especially from the same category, to prevent your bonus data from expiring before you can use it.
