Here Are The Most Affordable And Best Data Plans For Nigerian Networks - August 2018

If there's one thing I hate after a low battery is slow and expensive Internet. Why should you spend a lot for something that isn't worth your money. Although sometimes the adage - penny wise, pound foolish doesn't always apply in the case of Nigerian Telcos that are always looking for ways to rip you off and take your airtime.

One day if I catch the person deducting airtime from my GLO SIM  it won't be funny.They deducted a certain amount that stopped  me from subscribing that night.

It really hurt though nevertheless let m not derail this post. So the first one on my list today is the Ntel Data Plans.

Ntel has always been fast but recently around my school (University of Port Harcourt). Then speed has dropped so badly that you wonder if it's a 3G network. Although if you download files at night you may get speeds of up to 2MB/sec. The speed may vary depending on your location, it could be faster or in a worse case scenario "slower than Glo".

You can get 6GB for N500, 12GB For N1000, 24GB for N2000 and more. Their unlimited plans aren't bad either. NTel is available at Lagos, Port-Harcourt, Abuja and its environs.

If you are A YouTube Addict or just love streaming videos then Airtel has your back -


Recharge N1000 and get 4.5GB data
(1.5GB android data + 3GB YouTube streaming)

Recharge N2000 and get 9.5GB data
(3.5GB android data + 6GB YouTube streaming)

Recharge N2500 and get 15GB data
(5GB android data + 10GB YouTube streaming)

Recharge N3500 and get 17 GB data

Recharge N4000 and get 19GB data

Each of the data will last you for 30 days and the YouTube free data is only usable at night.

Google recently launched Google stations in Nigeria that gives you free access to internet via wifi. It is already live in Lagos in these locations.
