4 Best and Cheapest data plans in 2019 – MTN | Airtel | Glo | 9mobile

Nigeria’s second-largest telecommunications operator, Globacom, garnered 78 percent of new data subscriptions in March.

The operator gained nearly one million new subscribers in the month. This was disclosed in the latest statistics released by the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) for the March.

According to the statistics, Globacom gained 950,115 new internet users, taking its total internet subscriptions to 28,436,386 from 27,486,271 recorded in February.

Two other operators, MTN and Airtel, also featured marginally on the gainers’ list in March.

MTN NG:

As an MTN user, you don’t need anyone to tell you that your data sim should be different from your normal day to day sim. Your data sim should be eligible for double data offer otherwise, get a new MTN sim.

Every new and existing MTN sim are eligible for the cheapest MTN data offer seen below:

MTN 4GB for N1000 (30 days validity)

250MB for N100 (3 days validity)

1GB for N200 (7 days validity)

Dial *131*65# or *131*65*2# to subscribe to your desired package. 75% of all MTN SIMs are eligible.

Dial *131*4# to check your data balance

MTN Night Plan

MTN night plan on Pulse tariff plan has been a life safer until when it was reviewed downward to 125MB for N25 and 250MB for N50. Subscribers weren’t happy and decided to abandon the plan completely.

However, MTN has decided to review the plan again upward probably because they are losing pulse tariff customers; you can now get 250MB for N25 as well as 500MB for N50.

To subscribe to MTN night tariff plan, dial *406# and reply with 4.

If you are a heavy user, and you want something big, then I’ll recommend you go for a third party data reseller here.

 

Airtel NG:

For Airtel users, you might want to consider Airtel binge as it is the most recommended plan on Airtel Network right now.

Airtel Binge

Airtel Binge is a new plan that offers subscribers 2GB for N500 usable on any devices. Or 1GB daily for N350. The validity period is 24hours.

How to Get Airtel Binge 2GB for N500

Recharge your line with N500 and dial *141*504#.

Airtel Data Plus

Airtel NG introduced a new package last month called data plus. The offer gives you extra free airtime when you buy data. For instance…

N300 gives you 200MB + N600

N500 gives you 500MB + 1000

N1000 gives you 1GB + N2000 (validity is 14 days)

N2000 gives you 3GB + N4000 (validity is 30 days)

N5000 gives you 7.5GB + N10,000 (validity is 30)

N10,000 gives you 17.5GB + N20,000 (validity is 90 days)

How Can I Get This offer

Dial *154*2#

Talk More Plus

If you want more voice, you get;

N1500 + 50MB for N300/7days

N2500 + 100MB for N500/7days

N5000 + 300MB for N1000/14days

N10000 + 1GB for N2000/30days

N25000 + 3GB for N5000/30days

N50000 + 5GB forN10000/90days

Dial *154*1# to get any of your desired packages.

 

Glo NG:

The disaster that just happened to Glo is the introduction of 1GB for N300 and the validity is 24hours. This is not nice and I won’t be using it anytime soon because it’s a complete waste of money. At least validity should have been something like 3 – 7 days.

Glo special data plans

To enjoy the best cheapest data plan on Glo network, you need to get a new Glo sim that is eligible for OgaSim double data offer if your normal sim is no longer eligible. As a subscriber on Glo network, N1000 data will only give you 1.6GB without any bonus. But with OgaSim, you get an extra bonus of 2GB data.

If the Glo network is superb in your location, then you can bear the pain of getting a new Glo SIM, and enjoy all the OgaSim and Yakata bonus offers.

Dial *777# to choose your desired package.

 

9mobile NG:

On 9mobile network, the best data to go for is 1GB for N200. Simply dial *929*10# to get activated… dial *228# for data balance. The good news is that it doesn’t zap.

Alternatively, you can get from third party data reseller for cheaper data plans. You can check here for a reliable third-party data reseller.
