Spectranet Increases Tariffs by Habeebpain(m): 10:22pm On Mar 05, 2016 |
Spectranet LTE sent me a mail yesterday informing me of a revamp of their data plans. Firstly, they mentioned that they'll be scrapping data plans based on states and sticking to a unified plan for every location in Nigeria. That's not bad, but the shocker came when I checked their page for the new data plans effective from March 15, 2016. See image below. The Lagos Knight plans don't exist anymore. The 7k plan for 20GB which works 24 hours a day also has been scrapped. Now the cheapest plan is 5k for 5GB and a plan similar to the Lagos Knight goes for N7500, gives you 20GB but runs from 7 p.m. to 7 a.m. with no mention of 24 hours on weekends and public holidays. While other internet service providers are offering more data for lesser amounts, Spectranet has chosen to increase costs and offer less data. Another fact that needs to be stated is that service is still pretty poor in a lot of locations (Ijegun is an example, where I only get one network bar). I'm not ready to pay more for a glorified 3G service and I know Nigerians are not ready to do the same. So if you're against this, please share this post and let's hope we force them to rethink their actions. 12 Likes 20 Shares

i subscribe the night plan for 4k 20GB time 6pm - 8am. This is has been increased to 7.5k while the time is reduced to 7pm to 7am. Am sorry spectranet, you have lost one loyal customer to Swift. I am going to acquire Swift mifi. 12 Likes 1 Share |

With 2500 NGN you get 4.5 GB on MTN; just that its segmented into day and night. The data plans listed above are a joke and its surely going to affect their customer base. 1 Like |

Re: Spectranet Increases Tariffs by solibayo: 2:02pm On Mar 08, 2016 |
Spectranet will soon die a very natural death if they don't back down on this madness called unified data crap. Glo a mobile network for that matter sells 6gb for 3k official bundle and spectranet an ISP wants me to pay 3k for 2gb in 2016. Even Etisalat that has 4G masquerading as 3G charges 1k for 1gb. I pray they die very fast to teach others who might be contemplating such moves a very hard lesson. Smile 4G now has unlimited 24x7 plan for 19800. No data caps. WiFi.ng has unlimited data 24x7 with US external ip for those in lekki and yaba area for just 9800 monthly. Not to talk of the numerous cheats people use allover the place Yet these morons have the guts to jack up prices and scrap favorable data plans saying it's the cheapest in the country, I wonder which country. I pay 4k monthly for Knight cine which gives me 40gb....now they want me to pay 11k for the same 40gb night plan.....imagine!!! My only pain is what to with my seriously accumulated data which is 201 GB as of this morning because I always do roll over. I wish I could transfer it to other subscribers 11 Likes 2 Shares

Op forgot to tell us that the "value "plan which was for 7k is now 10k with unlimited in the night. I will say this is the best honestly. Having to spend 3 k for unlimited in the night is considered high ? Na WA o |

solibayo:Bro, i feel ur pain. I am so so angry and dissapointed in Spectranet. I wont renew my subsription when it expires Mar 27, i have over 50Gig left. i contacted SWIFT and they gave me their data plans and tarrif. This same Knight plan on Swift is 6K for 20GIG. So spectranet saying their product is the cheapest in the industry even after increment is a big lie. As for me, i am porting to Swift 4 Likes |

BedLam: We know your types....most likely a sycophant spectranet staff. It's folks like you that run companies down because you don't tell the management the truth or maybe you are even part of the management. How can anyone in their right senses say these are the cheapest plans in the country.....this same Nigeria? For your information, Swift your closest competitor has been offering an unlimited plan since 2014 for 8k with 34 GB data for daytime use and this your mumu spectranet now introduces the same plan in 2016 for 10k with just 20gb data. Glo which has NATIONWIDE coverage sells 6gb data for 3k but your Ogogoro network wants us to pay 3k for 2gb in 2016 with their tiny network coverage. Hope you won't find yourself on the job market soon because I can assure you many people would abandon this your glorified 3G network sharply so you can enjoy your 20gb data for 10k! When the critical mass of your subscribers migrate, your network might then be sold for scraps to more serious entities Rubbish! 26 Likes 1 Share |
