MTN Disables Data Sharing On Yearly Plans And Throttles Their 4G Internet Speed by AgentNnamdi: 7:11pm On Jul 06
If you want to subscribe to an MTN yearly data bundle of 1TB @ 100,000 Naira, it's important to be aware that you won't be able to share data from this subscription. I confirmed this with one of their customer care representatives. I have been disappointed by this development. I have been on this plan for the last two months.

Also, I have noticed that the MTN 4G network is now extremely slow. I have been unable to stream on my device since the start of the EURO2024 matches. I believe they intentionally slowed down their network to promote the sale of their latest 5G device.

These are my latest observations.

You mean to tell me that you have internet and a phone in your hands with google and you choose to ask this question like a complete E-d!0t?

Just educate him and move on. He can learn from Nairaland without visiting Google.

You don’t sound very smart.

So you would rather ask a basic question and wait for hours for a response if you even get any than do a quick google search?

The 5G MTN device is something I will advise you to have. It's super crazy having a download speed with IDM of 43Mb/s. Already abandoned my 4G devices.

While I do not support the insults he got, it is however important that people know that they can virtually get the meaning of any word directly from Google, without having to wait for someone else to explain the word to them.

Happy Sunday.

This is the idea. For 4G users to go for the newer 5G.

It would be nice but things are very expensive and this economy is to buy foodstuffs and eat first.

I have been unable to share data for some days too on my 1Tb data plan. Just got off the phone with one of their agents who confirmed that data sharing has been disabled on data plans of 400gb and above.
Isn't this a fraud? One of the primary reason I subscribed the 1Tb plan is the ability to share data and now they are taking that off.

I also noticed the drastic drop in Internet speed in recent time too. I don't want to believe that is deliberate.

Data Sharing has been enabled on the yearly plan. You can share data on the MTN yearly plan now.

But the network is still slow on a 4G connection.

They have restricted it again. Bad News for us. MTN has fully joined Nigerian politicians.
