How To Use The Mtn Data Calculator And The Benefit

The MTN data calculator is a new feature introduced by MTN, Nigeria’s largest telecommunication network. This new feature allows you to calculate the minimum and maximum amount of data spent over a period (daily/weekly/monthly/yearly). This will help you develop a budget for data. The data is calculated by adding together all that was downloaded or uploaded on the mobile internet connection over a period of time and the calculator then adds up the selections in real-time thereby  helping you decide what data plan is right for you.
