A list of all MTN Data Plans and their subscription codes will always come handy anytime you need to subscribe or renew your data bundle on your Phone or Computer (modems). This is why I am creating this article to have all MTN data plans and Data Offerings (Special Bundles) in one place for you. This will not talk about Blackberry, if that’s what you need, check MTN Blackberry Data Bundles.
Choosing a Mobile data plan is relatively simple on MTN I must say. All you need to do is to simply select from their bouquet of bundle plans below. MTN calls it a “rich bouquet of flexible and affordable data plans”, but many people would not agree to that claim.
Word on street is that MTN Data Plans (internet packages) are one of the most expensive in Nigeria while it is generally believe that Glo Data Plans are the most affordable in the country (low price for huge data). But when you are looking for cheap data for internet access, you may want to check Etisalat Bundles out. Well, I just believe these terms are relative and choice depends on pocket and needs.

Some people have asked if there are special data bundles for MTN 4G. The answer is No! You don’t need any special data plan for 4G. All 2G and 3G voice and Data plans will work on 4G. However, your SIM Card and Phone must be 4G-enabled.
Subscribers who wish to make use of any of the MTN Social Data Plans should note the following:
- You can subscribe to any combination of plans. You can subscribe to all the plans or select any preferable combination. For example, you can subscribe to the Facebook and WhatsApp social plans only making you have internet access on those two social apps.
- Fair usage policy of 5MB applies to the weekly social plans while a fair usage policy of 25MB applies to the Monthly plans.
- You can unsubscribe to MTN Social Data Plans by sending “NO applicable Keyword” to SMS shortcode – 131. E.g: NO WCM to 131 for WeChat monthly plan or NO WAW to 131 for WhatsApp weekly bundle.
Many phones now work automatically with SIM cards and data plans without configuration. However, we still see many cases where you have to configure your phones for internet connection. If your case is this, you can check the MTN Internet Settings for Phones & Modems.
