Do you have an mtn data plan and don’t know how to check the balance using ussd code? not to worry, you’ll find out now.

For a telecom operator like mtn, knowing how to check your data and airtime balance is very needful. It can be beneficial in many ways not just for mtn users but when using other telecom operators too.

Knowing how to check your mtn data balance either by ussd code or text can help you know whether your data has truly exhausted before renewing or subscribing for another one.

Same thing applies to airtime balance how will you be able to subscribe for a data plan in the first place if you don’t know your remaining airtime balance and whether it’ll be enough?

I once made the mistake of renewing my data plan for a particular network when I thought I had exhausted it as a result of lagging network connection, not knowing I still had more than half of the data plan left.

That wouldn’t have happened if I knew how to check the data plan balance of that network, I would have actually saved my money if I knew I still had enough left.

Coming back to mtn, we all know they rate at which the zap their data whenever you subscribe and as a Nigerian you’ll always want to check your data constantly to know whether you should continue watching your youtube or stick to only facebook lol.

Either way, you should still know your mtn data balance in order not to be caught unawares. So in this post you’re going to see how you can check your mtn data balance using ussd code or text message and how to check your mtn airtime balance and bonus.
