I am so mad right now .I received an sms from mtn that I would get a whooping 17GB if I buy N2000 worth of data.I didn't mind that it was gonna last the weekend I hurriedly subscribed for it .at exactly 12 midnight I put up a few downloads which was not more than 5GB and went to sleep only for me to wake up this morning to check my balance and wow, I have 1.6GB remaining? Hian? I checked again it was for real. I told me self relax maybe it's an error or something. So I calmed down and checked again in 5 minutes and to my horror I was told I have exhausted my data bonus.
I sharply called their customer care and guess what I was told that I actually finished 17GB in six hours like in six freaking hours with which network bros? At 400kbps/second? Abi and the downloads av not even reached half?
Please officially mtn is a scam even their call bonus is a massive scam and please I will appreciate if this post is taken to front page to help unsuspecting victims avoid this..please if you have experience this treachery I will love your comments on what to do to bring this scam of company called MTN to justice

Thank God say I never fall into the trap

Was it on a sunday night?

The data bonus is usually valid for the weekend and expires at 11:59pm on sunday.

it's working well for me though... after enough downloading and streaming

Streaming? Lol can you share a snapshot of your downloads so far?

I got scammed too but with a different approach. I recharged with #1,000 and got a wow bonus of 1Gb,but I also activated the #500 for 1Gb (7 days) plan. My thinking was that once the wow data bonus expires they would do the deductions from the normal data plan. Guess what? At some point I got the notification that my allocated data had been exhausted. After just 950Mb worth of browsing ( l've installed a data counting app). I decided to call CC, but was told the wow data bonus was not on offer this weekend (29-30th July), after I got a notification that I have been credited with 1Gb! Imagine that.

Well for some unknown reasons I recharged N501 on Friday 29 July and got the said 1GB which I'm currently using.

It wasn't advertised to me via sms too this weekend so I was cautious.
