Despite the recent 50% hike in telecom tariffs, which affected the prices of voice calls, SMS, and data, Nigerians have continued to consume more data, as recent data from the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) suggests.
In May, for instance, Nigerians consumed 1.04 million terabytes of data, and it came as the highest monthly record since January 2023, when the telecom regulator started publishing the data.
This is because data has become essential to the business and livelihood of many Nigerians, and they have to buy it irrespective of the cost.
Yet, Nigerians are complaining on a daily basis about how their capped data subscriptions quickly deplete, a development that has prompted many to start considering unlimited plans offered by different operators. Unlimited plans, however, do not come cheap compared with capped data.
While several ISPs claim to be offering unlimited data plans, not all are truly unlimited, as some ISPs attach a Fair Usage Policy (FUP) to their plans.
The FUP means that there is a certain threshold of your usage within the unlimited period, where the speed you get becomes lower, but you will still continue to have access to the internet.
For instance, if your one-month unlimited subscription has a 40GB FUP, it means that you will enjoy the best speed until you use up 40GB, after which the speed you get is throttled.
However, in this article, Nairametrics looks at the truly unlimited data plans currently being offered by core ISPs and mobile operators. These plans are ranked based on affordability.
Here are the top 10 cheapest unlimited data plans in Nigeria as of July 2025:

What about FibreOne.
What about Smile Unlimited Lite Plan which goes for #18,500 and valid for 30 days.
i-World Networks Limited too
As a long term active customer of Wifiber, be rest assured you’ll never see that 35Mbps speed. Not even 30Mbps. If the odds are in your favour you’ll see constant 15/18Mbps. Other days you’ll just have to manage the 10/14Mbps you see. If you plan on gaming with it, just get a LAN cable else you would lag into another dimension. You’ll also need anger management training to communicate with their customer service because 85% of the time their “backend” team will ignore the customer service when you communicate any network issue you are having.
Always very fine very well the cheapest you put there is not the cheapest the cheapest is from rexify technology 14,000 on limited internet
Is this a sponsored write-up?
If not, how come it did not list FiberOne, one of the top 5 Broadband service providers (as regularly shown in NCC’s reports and which Nairametrics has reported in recent times)?
All its data plans are unlimited and cheaper than many of those listed in the write-up..
Hmmm…all these juice packages and Spectranet has been cheating us. 40GB for 12k and before 30days you are depleted and cut off. You can’t even browse again. Highest speed is 3mbps. Na WA for those Indians.
🤣😂
