This article contains the list of the 5 cheapest and best MTN tariff plans for prepaid and postpaid users, with the migration code and free data.
Some people keep complaining every time that MTN charges them too much on call. While some others smile that their call rate is so cheap.
Now you will be wondering, “does MTN charge people on their network differently”? The answer is yes.
MTN has different prepaid tariff plans and postpaid bundles to choose from.
The default plan that comes with the MTN SIM card may not be favorable to you. And when one is ignorant of these tariff plans, they will end up paying more for fewer calls.
For instance, you are supposed to know your peak and off-peak call moment.
Do you do many international calls? Do you need more data? Do you like the cheap night browsing plan?
Maybe you hardly make calls on that line, or you do lots of calls so you will need more call bonuses.
With these you can determine the package you will go for. All are available at your fingertips.
To migrate from one tariff plan to another is for free. But if your last migration is within 30 days and you migrated again, you will be charged 100 Naira.
