MEDIA RELEASE
MTN GHANA SUSPENDS MTN DATA ZONE BUNDLE
Accra, April 12, 2023, Scancom PLC (MN Ghana) has announced a suspension of its MTN Data Zone bundle
effective April 05, 2023. We apologize to our cherished customers for limiting our communications on this
matter to service activation channels only. This media release is to provide more information on the issue.
The suspension of the innovative Data Zone bundle is due to a review of the bundle offer in line with the
Significant Market Power (SMP) directives applied to MTN Ghana in June 2020, not to be the lowest priced
on any offer in the industry. We are currently engaging and collaborating with the Regulator, as we seek alignment on a revised Data Zone bundle to be reinstated as soon as possible. We will notify you in due course of further developments. Data Zone bundle is an innovation by MTN Ghana that gives customers a 1-day validity bundle at discounted rates at the point of purchase. Subscription is through the Short Code 135. MN Ghana would like to reassure its customers that it would continue to roll out innovative and affordable products and services for the benefit of its cherished customers.
