MTN launches Night Express Internet Bundles to provide big data to prepaid customers at affordable prices
For a monthly subscription from as low as R10, MTN prepaid subscribers will receive 100MB worth of data bundles to use to surf the Internet and connect to social media platforms.
This data is valid for a period of 30 days and can be used between midnight (00:00:01) and 05:59:59 in the morning. Subscribers can opt to either subscribe to the Night Express Internet Bundles at very competitive rates, or make a once-off purchase.
At a cost of R25 a month, an MTN customer will receive a monthly allocation of 300MB of data, and a R35 monthly subscription entitles a subscriber to 500MB of data. Customers with a voracious data appetite can opt for a R59 monthly subscription which will give them 1GB of data, while a R109 Night Express Internet Bundle will provide them with 2GB, and R139 with 5GB worth of data.
MTN PayAsYouGo customers can purchase their Night Express Internet Bundles via the self-service channels by using their airtime wallets or dialling 173 for assistance.
The MTN Night Express Internet Bundles promotion is designed to give customers significant data value at very affordable rates.
All bundles are valid for a month but can be renewed by purchasing another bundle.
The Night Express Internet Bundles will be valid for 30 days from the day of purchase. Any unused value will expire at the end of the 30-day period. At the end of the validity period, if the customer does not have the recurring bundle, the Internet usage will deplete from customer's existing bundles or, in a case where the customer does not have the data bundle, data usage will deplete at price plan rate.
"The MTN Night Express Internet Bundles provides our customers with a gateway into the rich world of data and was tailored to meet our customers' needs and offer flexibility. With these highly competitive offerings, our prepaid customers can surf the Internet for longer and stay connected to friends and family on social media platforms without having to worry about bill shock," says Larry Annetts, Chief Marketing Officer at MTN South Africa.
