Ever Dialed *138# and wondered which data bundle to purchase?
I have spent a lot on data alone as a youth, I know you have too. From Netflix, YouTube, snap chat, twitter, WhatsApp status, telegram and the list goes on and on. The Internet is not something we can do away with, however we can minimize our expenditure on it in the short run and the long run.
MTN comes with a lot of flexible data bundles which in my opinion benefits individuals based on their need. If you urgently need to download a movie, going for a 2 gig bundle for GHC 3 with a day expiry will be a wise option. Utilizing the midnight bundle will be a wiser option. However, purchasing the 2 gig bundle for GHC 3 with a day expiry everyday will drain you financially because you will be spending GHC 21 per week, GHC 90 per month and GHC 636 in seven months
If you don’t spend much time online or you have an alternative source of internet, getting an affordable non-expiry bundle such as 971 mb for GHC 10 (with no expiry) won’t a bad option. It can keep you going for some months. However purchasing this bundle whiles you spend at least 1 gig a day is a very bad financial decision. You will end up spending GHC 70 per week, GHC 300 per month and GHC 2,120 in seven months
If you use a lot of data, getting the GHC 399 bundle for 214 gig (non-expiry) will be the best option for you. It might seem like you are spending a lot of money on data with this option but you will be saving yourself GHC 237 if you choose this option over the GHC 3 bundle for 2 gig (for a day) and GHC 1,721 when you choose this option over the GHC 10 for 971mb (assuming you spend 1 gig per day). With this bundle, even if you spend at most 1 gig per day, the bundle will last for seven months and you get a 100gig bonus when you purchase using the “My MTN APP”
Conclusion:
All bundles are flexible but you can make the most of the one that best fits your situation. I will recommend you go in for the GHC 399 anytime because it doesn’t expire, saves you cash; with this option, you will be spending GHC 13 per week (meaning you get 1 gig for GHC 2.8 per day). This is very cost effective and will prevent you from visiting *138# for a while.
