200% hike: MTN scraps 15GB bundle after subscriber outcry

The country’s biggest telecom operator, MTN Nigeria, has decided to discontinue its 15GB data bundle, following significant backlash from subscribers over a staggering 200 per cent price increase.
The telco had initially raised the cost of the plan from N2,000 to N6,000, triggering widespread outrage among its user base.
Originally introduced as a promotional offer, the 15GB plan was designed to support low-income subscribers and foster greater internet penetration.
The plan had been offered at a discounted rate but was exclusively accessible through the My MTN app or MTN MoMo (Mobile Money), limiting its availability to users of those platforms.
Sources within the company informed The PUNCH on Thursday that MTN could no longer offer the plan at its original price. Further discounting was deemed unsustainable, as it would jeopardise the company’s revenue model.
They emphasised that the 15GB plan was always intended as a limited-time promotion aimed at providing affordable data without compromising the operator’s long-term business viability. “If we continue selling it at that rate, we risk undermining our revenue. We owe our subscribers an apology for the price hike, and we recognise their loyalty. That plan has been removed and is no longer available,” a source said.
MTN also issued a formal apology on Thursday to its subscribers, acknowledging their dissatisfaction with the price increase. “We understand that you’re upset, and we acknowledge your frustration. We know how disappointing it must have been to wake up to a sudden 200 per cent increase in your favorite digital bundle,” it said in a statement.
MTN further admitted that the price hike was a mistake, saying, “While we could offer explanations and reasons, we understand that it might not make it better. We admit that this was a mistake.”
The company appealed for forgiveness, urging subscribers not to stay angry. “In this season of love, we hope you won’t stay upset with us. Please forgive and forget. You are important to us, and we will continue to show you just how much. Let’s keep this relationship going,” MTN concluded.

Best MTN monthly data plan below 10,000 Naira and how to subscribe to them


It’s never a great feeling when you’ve carefully planned your budget only for an unexpected price hike to throw everything off balance. And even when you see it coming, it’s tough when the money you earn can’t seem to keep up. This is exactly what many of us are facing with the recent spike in internet tariffs – a whopping 50% increase. Now, more than ever, Nigerians are on the lookout for more affordable data packages that won't break the bank.
Take me for instance – before the price change, I used to subscribe to a 6,000 Naira MTNdata plan that gave me 45GB. But after the hike, I found myself shelling out 11,000 Naira for just 36GB, but still that plan barely lasted me two weeks.
While MTN’s once-generous offers have now become a shadow of what they used to be, recent backlash from users has pushed the company to revamp some of its plans. Though the changes may not be as favorable as what we once enjoyed, it’s still better than nothing.
So, if you’re looking for the best MTN monthly data plans under 10,000 Naira that still give you value for your money, here's a breakdown of options and how you can subscribe without breaking the bank.
