MTN stopped offering unlimited data plans in February as part of its ongoing price review. A check we made in February 2025 on the company’s website showed that MTN Unlimited Data Plans were no longer on offer. However, this appears to be temporary as MTN restored the Silver and Ruby Unlimited Data Plan in early March 2025.
Over the last couple of weeks, we have observed a lot of volatility on MTN Data Plans with many plans (especially the best value plans) being withdrawn and others changing in prices. The unlimited data plans and the Broadband Night Plans seem to be the latest casualty.
The MTN Unlimited Data plans were the best data plans if you have an MTN 5G Router. They offered great data allowance and when you used up your data allowance, you get daily data support until the end of your subscription period.
For example, the Monthly Silver Unlimited MTN Data Plan (our favorite) was priced at ₦18,000 with an FUP of 150GB with 5GB per day once you exceed your 150GB FUP. The price was initially increased to 20,000 Naira and daily data after FUP was reduced to 2GB, but was discontinued along with the other unlimited data plans in February.
The Bronze, Silver, Ruby, and Gold Unlimited plans were our recommended plans if you have an MTN 5G Router.
However, MTN has restored the Silver and Ruby plans while also introducing a 200GB Monthly Broadband Plan for ₦25,000 and restoring the super cost-effective 1.5TB Yearly Broadband Plan for ₦150,000. All these plans are great options for your MTN 5G Router or your MiFi.
The updated MTN Silver Unlimited Data Plan has a 150GB fair usage policy (FUP) and a 5GB daily limit once you exceed FUP until you complete the validity period of 30 days. The plan saw a slight price adjustment to ₦20,000 (from ₦18,000 pre price hike), an 11% increase.
The MTN Ruby Unlimited Data Plan was restored ‘as is’. It still has a 300GB FUP and a 5GB daily limit once you exceed FUP until you complete the validity period of 30 days. The price is still ₦30,000.
The MTN Broadband plans and the unlimited plans are the best data plans for your MTN 5G Router and MiFi.
MTN currently offers four monthly broadband plans: a 30GB plan for ₦9000, a 60GB plan for ₦14,500, a 120GB plan for ₦24,000, and a 200GB plan for ₦25,000 which in addition to the MTN unlimited data plans are our recommended plan if you have a 5G Router. MTN Broadband Night Plans have also been discontinued from our check.
