Good morning this midnight to you all MTN SME Data Share resellers,
I met a shock from MTN this night while trying to share my data with a customer for a volume of 250MB. After completing the process, I got this shocking message on my screen:

"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".

I thought it was an error, I checked my data balance and it was still intact with 2.09GB left. So, I decided to try it again and behold, the same shocking and sad message was the response.

Fellow MTN SME Data Share resellers, what's your own experience this night? Is this the end of MTN SME Data Share business?

Let's hear from you. Thank you.

Awful, nothing Gud lasts long they say. Hope it's just a minor issue Shaa. Mtn sef.

Dear fellow MTN SME Data Share resellers,
I will strongly advice that you put a hold on your planned subscription renewal, till this is cleared for this business to continue. Thank you.

Abeg ooo

I got the same message this morning.

But I have shared to more than 10 people so far still on that same package without renewal yet.

Have you tired it again this morning? I got the same error message now.
Meanwhile I have shared this my current plan with over 80 persons alone yesterday before this restrictions by MTN. Funny thing is that their customer care refused to answer my call last night. Thank you.

That means MTN has put spanner to this SME data share business by restricting it to 10 maximum shares per plan. This people are very wicked.
Good morning

s please put this thread on front page, so that more Nigerians and Nairalanders who are into this SME data share business from MTN will be delivered from the exploitation of MTN. Thank you.

Dear fellow MTN SME data share subscription resellers, please let get across to one another with this development and please, put on hold any of your planned subscription renewal for now.
Meanwhile, kindly get to me on 08144845524 if you are a reseller and let's discuss. Thanks and GOD bless you all.

This is a bad development o.

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.
Is this for only subscription of 10G or for all the plan? Cos I subscribe for the 10G plan.

So bad......

I got the same message dis morning.....funny enough i still gat 60gb left....


And i checked dere plan list this morning, i noticed that the 20gb, 50gb and d 75gb plan is still there...they havent scrambled it..very useless ppl..

always see opportunity in any circumstance. it means that you guys should go n re.strategize

This is serious gobe! The only plan the keeps most people online. Mtn must be stopped from this nonsense.

Mtn are cowards for doing this. Despite d fact that they still make money from the huge data bundles that resellers buy from them. Mtn are useless cowards i repeat

E no go better for MTN nd NCC as a whole if truly this is real. Do we even have govt in ds country, fu..ck d presidency...

Someone please call don jazzy and let him know what MTN is doing to us

This people are really trying hard to fustrate us.

Across all segments

yep
noticed DAT
I hope all those newbies in this reseller game have learnt
their lesson
we started by selling 250mb for 500 naira
because new ppl needed customers, they started reducing
prices, thereby causing traffic
ppl even sold as low as 200 naira for 250mb
mtn has done what they normally do
ripping happiness from ppl
once this current sub I'm on expires, I'm out of mtn data
share Biz for sure
ETISALAT is expensive
but they will never bring up surprises out of greed
I hate mtn
And I wish DAT company bad
and pray for their downfall
greedy bastardz

I called customer care

the guy said he checked

that no such msg is on their site

what a useless network

Am Heart Broken Right Now. :-

MTN... very stingy network. spits on my MTN sim

Got same news. Guess the way out is to start selling just in gigabyte. For instance u buy 10gb 10 ppl and u r safe

Let's just hope it's an error message.

How many people will be able to pay for 1G! I think the only manageable plan for now is to sell 500MB, 750MB and 1G.

MTN ooooo!!!!! And i have 33gb left.

I just tried sharing to someone a few minutes ago and i was told I had gotten to my maximum 10 shares per plan.

CoderXO told me MTN was bound to stop this sooner or later. I told him I can only see them putting restrictions. Lo and behold, just 2 or 3 weeks after we spoke, it has happened

Just called luluosas. About to call EnterPro. Make we know whats up oo

Bros you dey give urself hope

That means no 250MB, 500MB or 750MB
Only 1GB......
Buy 10GB then sell in 1GB each
Let see how 1gb will be N1000
.

Waiting in the wing to subscribe for 10gb this morning, though I have got 14GB left

The unnecessary ridiculous price slash by resellers caused this!
Apparently, no one can sell below 1gb at a time with this latest development. And it won't make sense to buy any plan more than 10gb anymore since one can only share 10times per plan purchased.
