MTN Nigeria has done it again, bringing out one of the cheapest call rates ever, called MTN TruTalk and MTN TruTalk+.
However, one thing is sure, unlike the other MTN tariff plan,MTN Zone, the newly introduced MTN TruTalk offers their subscribers flat call rate from the very first second.
Please take note that the call rate is totally dependent on the network which the subscriber called, as there are different charges for on-net and off-net calls made to different networks.

Happy Hour (12:30am – 4.30am)
While the free on-net calls is also applicable, BUT you can only make this calls during the Happy Hour, only if you have ₦100 and above in your main balance. ₦99.99 won’t make the Happy Hour free call.
Goodnews!!! MTN Nigeria has introduced a cheaper call plan of TruTalk, which is called the TruTalk+ (TruTalk Plus), But this one comes with a price, a daily access fee.
However, the truth here is that the TruTalk+ is much cheaper than TruTalk, despite the former having a daily access fee.
