MTN Zone Bundle revision

Scancom PLC (MTN Ghana), rendered an unqualified apology to its customers after suspending its old Zone bundle offers. The suspension of the data zone bundle took effect on April 5th, 2023.

This suspension resulted from a review of the bundle offer in accordance with the SMP (Significant Market Power) directives applied to the telecom company in June 2020. MTN added that Significant Market Power directed them not to have the lowest-priced offers in the telecommunications industry.

The old MTN Zone Bundle offers

The old MTN Zone Bundles provided attractive offers but have since been revised because they did not comply with the (SMP) Significant Market Power directives.

The old MTN Zone Bundle prices were:

• 1 GB for one day at GHS 2.09–GHS 2.99
• 2 GB for one day at GHS 3.09–GHS 3.99
• 5 GB for one day at GHS 4.09–GHS 5.99

The new MTN Zone Bundle offers

The revised offers of the MTN Data Zone Bundle, effective April 5, 2023, fall short of the previous Zone bundle offer. They include:

• 281 MB for one day at GHS 2.09
• 425 MB for one day at GHS 3.19
• 692 MB for one day at GHS 4.19
