As a matter of fact, you will find a lot of queries on the internet concerning MTN data plans. However, there are certainly many things you need to consider when choosing your MTN data plan.

However there are two things you should obviously consider prior to making your choice.

One, if you’re a heavy browser, you will need a plan that is at least 10GB every month. Because when you consider the frequent downloads and streaming, you’ll surely be needing that much.

Two, if you have a tight budget, you’d be looking at a plan that is quite pocket friendly while offering you the best value.

MTN offers a lot of exciting data bundles and with these wide range of plans; you have many options to choose from depending on your unique browsing needs.

MTN allows you to roll over your unused data to the next month. For example, if you have 100MB of data left for this month, it will be added to your data for next month — provided that you allow automatic renewal. That is, you must have loaded the subscription amount before your current plan expires.

Note that all the plans work for Android, iPhone and laptop users.

PS. Before subscribing to any of these plans, ensure that the 3G network is available in your area. (If your phone does display 3G or H beside the network signal indicator, this means the 3G network is available). Without 3G, you won’t enjoy high-speed browsing.

I had credit on it but it couldnt browse, i subscribed 2 the 10mb data and yet it still cant browse. It happened to 2 mtn sims ì have. Seriously mtn needs to look into this matter its anoying. Heres my num 08163093404 i got no email

    • I’ve never tried it myself but i have seen a friend browse for free on mtn recently by using blackberryx.net as the APN leaving other settings empty and it works for him.

      You can try that. Goodluck

  15. Pls, I want to knw whc one is better, either MTN browsing plans or Multilink browsing plans?

    A friend jst advice me that I shu go for Multilinks, that I can browse for free.

  16. Pls, if I buy d 4.5GB plan (night and day), can I use it on my modem (Laptop), wll it serve me well?
    I am askg this qstn bcoz I once tried that on another network and as I tried to browse wt it on d laptop, it just cleared d whole GB under few mins.
    Pls respond. And if yes is it the same activation code?
    Thanz.

  18. The 120 to 131 does nt exist. You can use the 3GB at nite alone and the 1.5GB for day alone by switching manually. I just discover that and it’s great.

  28. My device (iPad) does not send SMS; any tip on how I can check my data balance without transferring the SIM card to a mobile phone? I’m on the new day/night plan. Thanks in advance.

  31. hello, i purchased mtn night plan, now i have exhausted both the day gig and night gig but my xpration date never commence, can i purchase a new plan or i will have to opt out of the current one???? PLS GET BACK TO ME ASAP SIR/MA

  35. My day plan got exhausted. How can I cancel the entire plan (ie day & night) and thereafter reactivate so that I can continue to enjoy the the day plan again, since I can’t wait till I exhaust the night plan. Of a fact, I hardly browse in the night.

  37. To the best of my knowledge I think you can use the 1.5gb on daylight while 3GB in the night by simply turning off your data and switch it back again at night when it’s 9:00pm that will stop deduction from 1.5gb and switch to 3gb all the nights.

  39. Pls I dot knew wats rong. I bot the 4.5 gig nite plan but anytime I browse at night they deduct from my 1.5G daily and not the 3G. Then how can I check my 3G night plan balance? Thanks

  42. Pls I want know if you have a data plan for black berry. If yes, does it work with other smart phones or it’s restricted to bb only? Airtel has it and it works with other smart phones as well and is cheaper than the regular smart phones subscription. I want to make a switch and I need to know b4 I switch.
    Thank you.

  47. Abass
    Thanks, the information here has been helpful. About the night plan tho, what do I do if I exhaust the 4.5GB before expiration date? Can I reactivate? And if no, will I have to switch my cellular data off to avoid charges on my account? Plus if I switch my data off while waiting for auto renewal, will it auto renew. Thank you! Very much.

    • Lara,

      If you exhaust your 4.5 GB before the expiration date, you cannot reactivate until after the 30-day validity period. And each time you connect to the Internet before the validity period ends, you will be charged in credit.

      As for the auto-renew feature, it doesn’t work. You will have to re-subscribe by resending the code. However, if you do that on the same day your validity period ends, you will have your unused data from the previous month rolled over to the new month — that’s if you have any unused data left.

      Hope this answers your question?

  55. Whoever posted information on this website needs to paste the right information. I used the details given for the nite plan (*108#) and that gave me the weekend plan. This is totally on unfair. If posting valuable information on your site please check that it’s correct. Extremely disappointed.

    • Titi,

      With a sense of deep regret, I sincerely apologize for the mistake made in the blog post, which led to your acting upon wrong information.

      It’s quite unfortunate that we got the information from an incorrect source and were not careful enough to crosscheck the blog post afterwards. We’re very sorry for disappointing you and for all forms of inconvenience caused as a result of our blunder.

      Please accept our apology.

      PS. We have updated the blog post with the correct information to avoid misinforming other people.

      Regards,

    • Firstly! There is a way you can use the 3G night in the day time when your 1.5 day plan is exhausted. And is working
      Secondly! You can subscribe for more data even when your monthly subscription is not yet expired and your remain 3G night plan will be rolled over. The second information is simple. And can be said or written publicly And this is how it works, if you subscribe for the 4.5 day and night plan and your 1.5G morning got finished you can simply subscribe again by by texting 102 to 131 and you remaining data will be rolled over. The first. The first information is confidential and can NEVER be said or written publicly because of the unknown.

    • Lekan, there’s no way you can get the 3GB to work during the day (except, perhaps you go the unethical way). Once you’ve exhausted your 1.5GB bonus, your use of the 3GB data will be restricted to between 9pm — 6am.

  61. Abass,
    Thanx for the info. For the nite plan, is it possible to use the main 3gb @ nites while the bonus 1.5gb can be used exclusively in the daytime? I want to be sure that I will not have to exhaust the 1.5gb on both day and nite before I can access the 3gb which of course can be used only @ nites thereby getting cut off in the daytime.

  63. Iam very worry with mtn service becouse the mtn service has been size for 4 days why,and i receive code from mtn which iwill to give 5 mb data for 5 naira but now mtn stop this.
