My sister that just bought a new MTN SIM gets more data volume whenever she buys any Xtradata bundle but when I buy the same Xtradata bundle, I get less volume. Why?
A. Yes. New MTN customers that join the network will now enjoy 100% data bonus on their XtraData bundle purchase within 30 days of joining the network but Customers that are 31 days and above will get the regular bundle values when they buy any Xtradata bundles.
Note: The 100% data bonus is only applicable to the data bundle value (and not the Voice value) when an eligible customer buys any Xtradata bundle.
Example (Scenario 1)
Zainab activated a new line on the 5th of June and selects Xtravalue plan at the point of activation, she will enjoy the 100% data bonus on every Xtradata bundle she buys till the 4th of July 2022. From 5th of July, she will NOT enjoy the 100% data bonus if she buys any Xtradata bundle.
