I don't think so.. I think d NCC is simply making flimsy excuses and using Smile and Spectranet for dat. This is because we all know these 2 ntwrks still don't have a nationwide coverage yet and are only operating in major cities and again they offer considerable data discounts and incentives on data compared to what these our usual ntwrks offer.. Dis same NCC initially denied before coming up with hopeless excuses. This is solely d handwork of d NCC on behalf of the govt but what dey didn't anticipate was the response from the public...

Smile in particular will suffer the most for the reversal in increment. Smile charges are just too much. N10,000 for 15gb and N9,000 for 10gb. Lol Wtf. Before now people patronized them because they have a very fast LTE speed, but since MTN launched thier LTE with speed that match if not faster than smile, a lot of people have started to abandon smile for MTN LTE. I mean why wont they?

Smile 10gb is N9,000 with LTE speed that average 30mbps

Mtn 10gb is N5,000 plus 10gb device bonus, total 20gb for N5,000 with LTE speed that average 30mbps.

Chai, smile don suffer. Tell me why dem no go lobby for NCC to increase the price.

And who told u 4g LTE is limited to 21mbps? At launch I was getting 70mbps on MTN LTE. Now what I get is between 35-40mbps which can still download files at 5MB/s depending on the server u are downloading from.

^^^Given the above unfortunate opinion on LTE, there is no point arguing with you any further.

I'm not sure. But Glo LTE seem to have lower latency than MTN LTE.
