The Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) has advised mobile users in Nigeria to consistently track their data usage to verify how much they are consuming.

The request made by the regulatory body comes after telecommunications customers expressed worries regarding the quick exhaustion of data on their devices.

The Commission specifically advised customers to reach out to their service providers whenever they detect inconsistencies in their data consumption.

When customers encounter discrepancies in their data usage, they should initially reach out to their service providers to ask for their usage history or statement. However, if these concerns arenโ€™t adequately addressed, the Commission stated that individuals can report these issues via the free phone line 622 or through the Commissionโ€™s social media channels.

The Commission addressed several clarifications pertaining to the worries expressed by customers about data utilization. They stated that informing consumers about these concerns is integral to their dedication to safeguarding and adequately educating telecom consumers on matters within the industry.

In providing additional details about data speed and consumption, the Commission explained that data speed refers to the rate at which information moves from one device to another, typically quantified in megabits per second (Mbps). They highlighted that with the proliferation of internet services and significant investments within the industry, these speeds have consistently risen over time. Consequently, many consumers might not fully understand how to gauge this speed accurately.

The telecommunications regulatory body went on to clarify that platforms like

Also offer a simple method for customers to gauge their internet speed across all devices from various locations.

The faster the data transfer rate, the sooner webpages download-uploads happen, and consequently, data plans deplete more rapidly. Therefore, when telecommunications customers can accomplish tasks on their gadgets swiftly, both device manufacturers and network service providers may impose limitations on data speeds to assist users in monitoring their data consumption effectively.

In any event, most modern gadgets come equipped with features to track the data consumed by these devices. Itโ€™s crucial that users keep an eye on this information to verify their data consumption, particularly when apps continue to run in the background without being noticed. Hence, should inconsistencies arise, customers have the option to reach out to their service providers to ask for detailed records of their data usage. Should the response from the service provider be unsatisfactory, individuals can get in touch with the NCC either by dialing 622 or through interaction on the organization’s various social media channels.

The statement also noted that the experience of using data is influenced by one’s location, the specific network infrastructure present at that site, as well as the number of users concurrently connected within the same area.
