After the tenure of Ernest Ndukwe, NCC just died. Subsequent NCC EVCs just collect bribes from telecom companies and don't care about regulations and QoS.

I thought I'm the only one experiencing this.

Chai!

Nigerians have suffered.

Everybody just takes advantage of us and nothing happens.

Nobody to check.

Nobody to regulate

Is Spectranet better? What's your experience with them? I'm thinking of porting to Swift

Haba I just got myself a spectranet router...
MTN (Mobile Thieves of Niaja) are nothing but thieves

I don't use all those apps. I don't watch Netflix or stream anything, yet my Airtel data and MTN evaporates like methylated spirit in hot sun.

ikechukz:
I have MTN, Glo and Airtel and I do subscribe them regular for internet use. I don't know if I'm just lucky or if I'm the chosen one because I'm yet to experience zapping on any of them.
Most people don't monitor their data usage, you watch YouTube on 720p for hours, TikTok, Instagram and others and yet you only want MTN to remove 20MB.

Don't waste your money on MTN 4G mifi.......It overheats when connected to a laptop, and you can't use it until it cools down after like 24hrs....... don't waste your money.......buy swift or spectranet or anything asides MTN

Are you Swift or Spectranet? Which of them is stable and doesn't zap data?

Restrict data for background apps.

I personally deleted these apps yet their data zapping is something else

How is spectranet data

I'm suspecting fowl play.

Who else has noticed that MTN Data no longer lasts these days?

Not only you. That's what brought me to the phone section to find out why...

Dem wan gather enough money before Elon spoils their market.

Bahamas95:
If you're complaining about MTN what about Airtel?

Airtel is the worst amongst them, the only reason am still using it is because it's very fast but burns data. I don't have issues whenever am streaming live matches from start to finish unlike the mumu Glo network....... Instead of them to work on their poor network they prefer wasting money on mumu adverts with yeyebrities.

If dem dash me Glo sim with free data I nor go collect.

Aswears!

If Glo had put all these adverts money into good use by upgrading their network, I see no reason to have them lagging behind but hell no.

Here I am complaining of Airtel but mtn own na die 😂😂

For me the best is glo in of data but in network na Airtel

Spectranet is far better than mtn but location dependent ...

My 5G experience is tears 7gb in a day GOD WHICH WAY Glo too don dey do rubbish

Explanation...

It doesn't matter the network you are using, smart phones just get data smarter with data hungry apps.
People load pictures and Videos in HD
WhatsApp status
Instagram videos
Facebook status
Web pages loading videos in the background
YouTube playing a promo video before your content starts to play
Google ads on every site...

All these sums up to more data usage.
With 3G you can stop the video before it starts to play
With 4G, the video has already loaded and played half way before you can stop

so it gets worse...

With 5G... all contents are loaded before the site even opens

...the list goes on
