Have You Noticed MTN Data Exhaust Faster These Days? by Explorers(m): 8:10pm On Dec 08, 2017
Every week i subscribe and consume 1GB - 2GB and that ive been doing for years.


But about a month now, i noticed 2GB exhausts in 3days or so.


I use UC mini browser, image quality medium.


No Instagram, Youtube, online movies or videos, and downloads.

It's funny your just realising or might have seen signs but chosen to discard them
Ever since that NCC stuff,all networks have started doing data anyhow..best thing is night browsing,their data rates are still legit on that plan

Next time,check your data usage before and after a new subscription...

Uc mini is filled with useless notifications/try to disable it. grin

Check your settings for play store and other applications..

For over two days now, I can neither make call nor surf the net.

Thought I was the only one being cheated. In fact I have subscribed to the weekly plans twice this week and have decided to dust up my airtel sim.

It happened to me like four times in a row.

I dumped them for my Airtel line which lasted exactly one month,the day I wanted to renew I mistakenly bought another MTN Airtime instead of Airtel, I said let's see if probably they have changed their wicked way and I subscribed yet again

cry cry as I type the data has finished in less than 6days!

The last day am gonna use the shitty network

Yello_thieves. Airtel is now gradualy acting like them. I have been using airtel for over 6 years, i must tell you i have notice some change in their operation this year. Why are all this ntwrk providers trying to milk us dry and frustrate us.
If you cry to the govt. Now , they are even worst.

MTN Scaming Nigerians since 18BC. These MTN, are thieves their data drains like a burning gas, when browsing. The last time I did 1.5 for 1000, to cut cost i decided to browse only nairaland on my laptop thinking since nairaland is not a heavy site the data will last, only for me to receive a text the 5thday that i have 100mb remaining, i was shocked, since then, i avoid their data plans like a plague.

This is very true. This month alone I've subscribed to the 1Gb plan twice. Even the #25 night plan vanishes like magic. Just early this morning I subscribed to the #25 night plan, five minutes later they said I've exhausted it. Just now now. And I'm serious o, just 5 minutes on Nairaland without downloading anything.

As in ehn....as a heavy data user, data that used to last me for one week, now lasts one day. I subscribe up to 1 gig daily on this my mtn....just waiting for the day it will really get to me, I'll go and get a glo sim card
Re: Have You Noticed MTN Data Exhaust Faster These Days? by igahdavid(m): 1:23pm On Dec 09, 2017
I thought I was the only one. I have been complaining for months. I normally use 3 GB in a month, but now 5GB hardly lasts up to a week.
No downloads, no video or music streaming.
