MTN Startimes TV bundles.
Video content uses a lot of data and requires a fast internet connection. However, MTN Uganda has sworn to offer affordable time based bundles using this partnership. You never have to worry about running out of data mid-way your viewing.
To load the MTN Startimes bundle, dial *165*4*7# on your mobile phone and select StarTimes. You can then a choose the bundle of your choice & stream all your favorite content.
MTN Startimes bundles include a 2hr bundle at UGX 2,000 and a 4hr bundle at UGX 4,000. However, all these bundles are valid for a day. This means that if one buys a two hour bundle and watches a match for 10 minutes then stops, the time counter also stops. When you resume and match for another 20 minutes and then you stop, your total time used will be 30 minutes. Consequently, you get to enjoy all your favourite Startimes content pressure free.
