VibeextraWe will be discussing and reviewing
the most affordable and cheapest data
plan on MTN , Etisalat, Airtel and Glo
available for 2017 . This article will be
updated frequently to include any new
cheap data plan that comes in any time.
A smartphone without internet or data is
like an ordinary torchlight phone that is
why most smartphone users try everything
possible in other to have an active internet
data service in their devices. Without data,
there is nothing like facebooking, twitting,
using whatsapp, Instagram, BBM, telegram
or surfing the Internet for information like
you are doing right now. This is how
important Internet data is to us.
You need a lot of information to climb
above your peers in this our generation and
the easiest way to get these information is
via the Internet which is filled with any
information you can imagine of. A good
use of the internet can change your whole
life for the better.
However, most users wish to have a lot of
data (MB) on their mobile phones and PC
but due to the high cost of subscribing to
data packages in Nigeria, some people
withdraw and start managing the meagre
10mb allocated to every recharge of N100
which is mostly used for chatting because
it is too small for browsing. Many
Nigerians are still complaining of the
expensive nature of data subscriptions in
the country when compared to other
countries but it seems both the network
providers and Nigeria Communication
Commission (NCC) haven't heard the yarn
of the masses.
Having said that, there are still " affordable
data plans" on various networks in Nigeria
including MTN, Airtel, Glo and Etisalat that
can suite your need, whether you are a
heavy downloader or a fair internet user.
Remember that these plans are official.
Some people prefer the official data plans
in other to run away from the hassles of
tweaking.
Though tweaking gives you the most
affordable and free browsing tricks to
browse on your devices but not everyone is
comfortable with that. So this article can
guide you to make a better selection when
it comes to data subscription and
packages. Follow me along as i show you
these " cheapest MTN, Etisalat, Glo, Airtel
data plans for 2017" . Before you are
through with this article, you must surely
find the best data plan for you on any
network

1. MTN CHEAP DATA PLANS (click here

MTN Daily Unlimited Data Plan:
Do you know that you can brows and
download unlimited on your MTN line with
just N150? I recommend this plan for
heavy downloaders and internet users like
me. I recently tried this package on my
main MTN line but it wasn't eligible so i
used my second line and it was successful.
I used up to 7GB in just 5 hours because
the MTN network in my location is cool.
The data is unlimited and valid for 24
hours, after which you will be deactivated.
How will i activate MTN Unlimited daily
data plan? To subscribe to this plan, load
your MTN line with N150 and dial
*567*59# . This package works on all
smartphones, PC and iOS.
Unfortunately, it selects SIM, that is to say
not all MTN SIM cards are eligible for this
package.
MTN Surprise Data Plans
These two data packages were recently
introduced by MTN and it offers more
affordable data than the previous
packages. In fact, these plans is a thorn on
the flesh of data resellers who use to sell

data officially from MTN direct.
