Last week, in our series on data packages, we looked at weekly data plans offered by the three biggest telecom companies in Uganda.
Today, we are going to look at daily data bundles the three biggest internet service providers in the country are giving to their customers.
These are the cheapest internet bundles, with the smallest pack costing as low as Shs200.
Africell, MTN, and Airtel provide daily data bundles that are as small as 10MBs to as big as 4GBs.
