How To Stop Data Auto Renewal: Good day! It is quite annoying when our ISPs(Internet Service Providers) take it upon themselves to ‘RESUBSCRIBE‘ Our data subscriptions for us.
Like “Who Sent You, Dear MTN?“. Even in a situation where you have the credit ready to buy another data, there’s this
confidence and satisfaction that comes with you purchasing the data yourself, so you here asking “How Do I Stop My MB Auto Subscription“, you are on track.
Our network providers, MTN, Airtel, Glo, & 9Mobile must have seen these as a great thing, it definitely has a use or
two for folks who literally sleep on the internet, this will save them from what I’ll call “Interrupted Data Supply“.
It’s a good idea until when you have other plans for the Airtime on your phone and your ISP decides to take it.🙄
The annoying part of this is, your Network provider doesn’t refund your Airtime after they automatically resubscribe you to a Data plan.
Guess what! You aren’t obliged to succumb to this, you can, in fact, instruct your Internet Service Providers not to automatically renew your data by following the steps below.
