NCC Enforces New Tariff Plan Limits to Improve Consumer Clarity
The Nigerian Communications Commission has rolled out new guidelines that restrict telecom providers, including Airtel and MTN, to a maximum of seven tariff plans.
This directive is designed to simplify the often complex and confusing array of data and voice bundles currently offered to subscribers.
The Executive Vice Chairman of the NCC, Aminu Maida, emphasized the importance of transparency and consumer empowerment. He explained that the move would help ensure subscribers make informed decisions without being overwhelmed by excessive plan options.
By limiting operators to seven distinct plans, the NCC aims to enhance fair competition and push operators to prioritise value and clarity in customer offerings.
The regulatory reforms are part of a broader push to improve telecom service delivery and ensure that the sector remains competitive and consumer-focused.
