Good letter but the timing is one kind. could it be that the op is one of the non bb user enjoying glo bis plan on expensive gadgets like ipads and the rest ?

First it was "how does this affect d price of garri";den it was "Ist to comment";it now seems d new phrase in vogue is "moderator move this to frontpage".Y can't d moderators on their own determine what is worthy of FP without dis annoying requests.
@topic,NCC undue interference in price regulation is not d best to me in a market based economy.NCC shd rather sanction any hidden attempt at group fixed pricing,because its impossible in a free mkt economy for companies in d same line of biz to have same prices for their products;it implies a group monopolistic attempt

I wish to use this medium to call on The Nigerian Communications Commision to as a matter of urgency look into this issue of data subscription disparity.

First, it is worthy of note, the effort of The NCC in seeing that Nierians are get good value for every kobo spent on network providers. With the likes of regulation of SMS cost to a flat rate of N4 per unit SMS, as well as other meaningful regulations.

Like wise it would be a very very commendable effort if the NCC can regulate and make uniform to a reasonable amount the cost of data bundle subscription across the board of internet user and subscribers.

At present, people who can afford blackberry mobile device are given larger data bundle while other mobile users and PC users are give less that half data bundle for the same amount.

This treatment to people who can not afford blackberry mobile device is so unfair and should be discontinued.

Nigerians deserve a better treatment.

Besides, if the internet data bundle price is reviewed downwards, the economic benefits are so numerous as more Nigerians would become internet users and the opportunities that comes with that would be to the benefit of all.

Nigerians would remain appreciative if the NCC handel this matter with the urgency it requires.

Thanks for bringing this issue up on NL.I have always been concerned about the extortions that that the service providers practice in the name of selling data bundle.You will recall that MTN ,Glo and others were charging line without data bundle at a rate of 15k/kB for long time before they reduced it to 5k/kB which is still very expensive.if you use your line to browse for about 2hours non stop on your computer or mobile, you must have spent up N500.You see, NCC must act fast to stop this cheating.As they are now giving conditions on rate of calls and sms, they should likewise give meaningful operating conditions on data.The excuse that these people should be allowed to make a return on their investment is very lame. Imagine that MTN made its projected profit for 15 years in only the first three years from all sort of cheating and illegalities.And the cheating continues. my faithful two coins.

Thanks to the moderator.

I may not be able to respond to all comments being made but I believe I have made a valid point.

People may think NL is not paid attention to, but I believe the government and the people that matters pay attention to NL and I believe something would be done about the issue raise very soon. [/size]

Common sharrap u wan spoil market for us way dey use 3G bis. If u save d amount u have been using to buy data bundle for what ever smart device u are using
u should be able to get a blackberry device with 3G. Serzly u should have excluded the bis part except u are too greedy with the blackberry you usem dats if its 3G enabled.

Go απϑ get your own  abeg. No pour sand for our garri. How you go come dey reason like this nah?

Just a few years ago a communication company said it cant bill per second untill glo came. Data plans in Nigeria are a complete rip off. The worst part of it is that you dont even get what you pay for. Take mtn easy surf. data plan for instance. After using 65% of your plan they shut down your connection. Claiming fair data usage.
