Note that a 4G LTE SIM will NOT work on a 3G smartphone or modem. Also, if you want to enjoy MTN 4G LTE, your phone must support band 800/1800/2100/2600MHz frequency. I discovered that some Android phones released earlier this year dont support this frequency. Check the manual or specs of your 4G phone now and confirm that it supports this frequency.

MTN also released the data plans and prices for the 4G network. Surprisingly, the plans are very different from the normal 3G plans. I wonder why 4G LTE data plans will be different from the 3G version. See them for yourself below:

MTN 4G LTE DATA PLANS

Price (=N=)	Data	Validity Period
500	100Mb	7 days
499	150Mb	1 day
1000	200Mb	30 days
6000	10Gb	30 days
10,000	15Gb	30 days
36,999	Unlimited	30 days
66,499	42Gb	12 months

The only plan which may look sumptuous is the 10gb for 6,000 Naira, but why will you want to do that when with your 3G you can get 10Gb for 2,500 Naira on GLO. Except you need the 4G services to run a business that will give you money, there is no need to waste your money on MTN 4G. Hopefully, as more subscribers switch to 4G, MTN will adjust their plans.

UPDATE: MTN is using the normal 3G data plan for their 4G LTE service now. That means that the normal 2GB for 1k plan is working. Check out the data plans.

HOW TO SUBSCRIBE FOR MTN 4G

To subscribe, just dial *444#  *131# and choose your preferred plan.

NOTE: You need to have a 4G enabled smartphone or router that supports the 800/1800/2100/2600/ MHz frequency. Then go to any MTN Walk in centre close to you and request for a 4G enabled SIM, theyd switch your current line to the SIM.

If you are looking for alternative to MTN 4G LTE, you can get an NTEL 4G SIM Card. They have two plans which are unlimited. N1,000 for two days and N10,000 for 30 days. If you need a NTEL 4G SIM, just send me a message via the contact form at the end of this page.
