Important notice to all buyers and resellers of MTN cheap SME data bundles!

At the dawn of October 26, 2014, MTN decided to start the limitation of MTN SME data share to only 10 shares per every SME data bundle package purchased by resellers.

MTN data resellers across the country woke up this morning to notice that they could no longer sell/share cheap data bundles to their teaming customers as most of them have already shared/sold to up to 10 of their customers the previous day, and they were all greeted with this message by MTN as they tried to share some data to their clients;

“Dear customer, you have already reached your quota of 10 maximum shares for your plan. Please purchase another plan to be allotted another 10 shares”

Though this will be coming as sad news to both the resellers and cheap-internet-hungry customers that have used this same opportunity in the previous months to sell and acquire cheap internet data for their browsing pleasure.

Now, our heartfelt sympathy goes more to those resellers that still have large amount of unshared data on their account, as what that implies is that they will no longer be able to share it again if they have already reached the 10 share limit, and they have to start counting on their loses at this point.

The only solution now is for them to make use of the data personally, which we all know that it was not for the intended purpose.

What is the way forward for both the resellers and the consumers?

On the part of the resellers, the situating on ground no doubt has called for re-strategizing in order to keep up the business moving, and for the consumers, a call for patience now will be the key to enable the resellers come up with another workable plan that will keep the data cheap and coming to you.

But the best bet for now for resellers is this; since the data share is now limit to 10 shares per bundle package purchase, it will be left for the resellers to now go for only the 10GB bundle package, where they can then share/sell at least 1GB to their customer at a set cheap price, maybe at N1,100 or N1,200 as the case maybe.

This will be to enable them continue in the good business of bringing subsidized internet data to many of internet hungry consumers out there.

Then for the consumers, you should bear in mind that the era of 250mb, 500mb and 750mb at cheap price has ended for now and you just have to step up a bit to go for the least 1GB plan if only you still need the data cheap and coming.

Finally, this important information was brought to you also as a mean to notify you of the impeding consequences that might arise as result of this latest development, as some unscrupulous resellers out there might want to take advantage of the situation and short-change or scam their unsuspecting buyers to make up for their loses.

So be careful and take a cue from above on what the next phase of MTN cheap SME data vending will look like. It is said: “To be forewarned is to be forearmed”
