MTN unveils new My MTNChoice Internet price plans
MTN South Africa has expanded its innovative My MTNChoice price plans that allow contract customers to manage their costs in real-time, with several Internet price plans ranging from as little as R15pm for 20MB to R999pm for 20GB.
"One of the highlights of the My MTNChoice plans has been giving customers the ability to track their usage in real-time to better manage their budget. Today's announcement takes that customer-centric approach to the next level by giving Internet contract users not only the ability buy bundles as and when they need them, but also to set their data limits and the tools to better manage their spend to avoid any potential bill shock," says Larry Annetts, Chief Marketing Officer: MTN South Africa.
In addition, MTN has lowered the voice rates on My MTNChoice from R1.95 to R1.20 per minute and SMS from 70 cents to 50 cents. To sweeten the deal even more, any package bought from 500MB upwards will receive an equivalent Night Express Data. For example, if customers subscribe to the My MTNChoice 1GB, they will receive 1GB of Anytime data and 1GB of Night time value, which can be used between midnight and 6am every day. Now customers can plan their data phone updates and large files uploads and downloads for the midnight period and have peace of mind.
"This is another way MTN is empowering its contract customers to build a package that best suits their needs. By being completely flexible with the My MTNChoice value proposition, MTN makes managing your cellphone account as easy as possible," adds Annetts.
The My MTNChoice Internet price plans offers bring your own device contract options ranging from month-to-month, six, 12-, 18- and 24-month offers. A full list of the price plans and costs are available on the MTN Web site (www.mtn.co.za).
"The entry-level offer of R15 per month is significant, as this gives customers who want to try out the MTN network without making a long-term commitment the perfect solution," concludes Annetts.
All prices are inclusive of VAT.
