Same here O̶̲̥̅̊...I subscribed for †̥ђe̶̲̥̅ monthly bis complete plan on sunday 10th march and I used d network perfectly well till †̥ђe̶̲̥̅ next day when I began experiencing network issues. I even thought maybe itz because I streamed some youtube vidoes with then..I tell U̶̲̥̅̊ from that monday 11th I've not been able to use †̥ђe̶̲̥̅ mtn network for anything that has to do with internet... And I've been calling them since and †̥ђe̶̲̥̅ onl thing they've been able to come up with is 'our engineers A̶̲̥̅̊я̲̣̥ε̲ working on it'...and itz almost a week,yet nothing good ha come out of †̥ђe̶̲̥̅ silly works of their engineers,but ΐ̲̅ƒ̲̅ itz free browsing,they will be sharp to block it... α♏ presently using airtel weekly hoping mtn will sort out †̥ђe̶̲̥̅ issue soon

And go and buy an android phone that drinks data balance like water?... U̶̲̥̅̊ see,we all knw android phones rock and A̶̲̥̅̊я̲̣̥ε̲ better than bb in most ways,but †̥ђe̶̲̥̅ data compression and †̥ђe̶̲̥̅ amt of data balance available to bb users is still what makes some of us to stick to it... U̶̲̥̅̊ see,we ђƏνЄ different reasons for using different phones

android does not drink data... its the way you use it. disable background data and install droidwall and airtime wont be touched

This trend started with etisalat a few months ago. The N1400 package give use just the   chat, twitter, facebook, 2 emails I think that's about it. Then glo followed soon after and now mtn. Only airtel is left I think. What the networks are saying is that if U̶̲̥̅̊ want to browse, buy the higher plans.

Since when I've discovered †̥ђe̶̲̥̅ problem,I've spoken with abt 17 of their customer care representatives and †̥ђe̶̲̥̅ same thing they've been mouthing is their engineers A̶̲̥̅̊я̲̣̥ε̲ working on it... †̥ђe̶̲̥̅ last person I spoke to this afternoon said 'maybe' we might be compensated,but he is not too sure abt that...we should just be patient...smh...I think O̶̲̥̅̊п̥̥ε̲̣̣̣̥ of †̥ђe̶̲̥̅ greatest mistakes I made last week is ever thinking of subscribing to mtn bis
