If they like let them charge #1,000 /MB, I must always be online. Other countries are giving free data and creating free Wi-Fi zones to the citizens but our 'leaders' want to indirectly block online criticisms of their incompetence and cluelessness. |

bestspoke:It seems the regulatory body is still silent on the new pricing. Inasmuch as they may be looking for newer ways to generate some income, some things should just be left affordable for the masses at this time. Let's hope it won't be much a difference. If it is, I will just cut off streaming and downloading heavy files from my list |

Re: How Are You Preparing For Dec 1 New Data Rates? by alizma: 8:54am On Nov 30, 2016 |
edebemba:I think you are wrong somehow. if data rate is increased by over 100% and subscription rate drops by about 20 to 30%, they are not going to bring down the price. you think they just wake up over night and come up with the plan abi? though I am yet to support or kick against the idea because I am not through with my investigation on its cost and benefits but I believe the proponent of this idea have done that. most of the online shops sell higher than the rd side shops, majority of the most visited sites online has not positive impact on the society no in those who visit those site etc. |

I just called NCC on their toll free number 622 to complain I I was told this whole news is a lie that NCC didn't approve any of such about data increase. So this is all rumors you can confirm yourselves |

So far so good, only TechCabal has given another angle to this data increase episode. And I kind of tow their line of thought. Newer entrants and smaller businesses are dying because of this competition. There is no way Spectranet can compete with Glo when the latter now has same 4G and sells data dirt cheap. According to TC, NCC even issued a caveat earlier that it could pull a trick like this when competition starts killing smaller firms. It's likely someone complained to NCC to step in and create a level playing field. It's inevitable that if data prices are left to market forces, a couple companies will fold. While I feel for them, I'm considering the greater positives of more internet penetration. Either way, let's all blame Buhari for this. |

this thing will only make people do panic buying of data which will mean more profit for the telcos. the tariff might not change at the end |
