Thank you all guys for keeping the thread going, we have your back. well done. #TeamDataFairness

This is the message I sent to the NCC email:
SUBJECT: Data plans
MESSAGE:
The current data plans available for non-blackberry users across all the networks is not fair. It doesn't give value for money.
The average android user, uses about 50mb per day, that's 250mb in 5 days. MTN gives 250mb for a N1000. For that same N1000 blackberry users get approximately 2200mb.
This happens across all the other networks.
As a government agency protecting the interests of the Nigerian people in the telecommunication sector, I (and other affected Nigerians) implore NCC to do something about this issue.
Thank you and God bless our country.

Thank you brother jawe, just move on don't mind him.

feranchek78:

wow! very enlightening. neva knew dis b4. if all wahy u just said is true, den I think iOS and AOS shld creat a new os daht compresses data just like blackberry does.

Ur welkom. Its not really an OS issue per say. For example, type 0.facebook.com and u'd access fb even without subscribing to data plan but at a stripped down experience. This is because FB has an agreement with telecomm operators for that and thus "subsidizes" for you to access the link.
Its pretty much same what BB has done with its BIS/BBC offering. Hence they actually subsidise for those bandwidths u get at low cost (either by cash or hardware support eg server hosting compression) that's why they seem cheap.
The frustration shud be vented towards google/Apple more than towards the telecomm operators.
They have given u their own data plan offerings, if you don't like it u might as well stick to bb and utilise their own data offerings for now while we wait for more improvements to the data offerings.

i will repost on fb. i have a word for us

You very wrong d only aggreement with blackberry was dt as at den Rim is d 1 controlling D BBM access dt is y u need active bis to Ping wich means you can't ping with money den.

But since wen blackberry is now standing alone dey now have access to ping with dere money wen dey exhaust dere data cap. dnt b fooled if you claim you know about this network trafficking then you will not be misleading pple with your Wrong facts.

The twitter hashtag is too long and not catchy. . That why you guyz have not gotten the needed attention on social media except nairaland. . .Its also come at the wrong time where an issue involving child marriages has gone viral which to nigerians is more of an important issue.

I shall observe sha. . . .

yehmy:

Point of correction pls, like I said please go and do some homework first, blackberry is not standing alone, RIM is now Blackberry (RIM makes blackberry and offer blackberry services, just like apple make iphone, ipod, macs etc) RIM has never been seperate from blackberry, they are one and the same.
Secondly, BBM isn't the only thing that is encrypted, ur email is too, same with ur browser as long as ur using BIS/BBC. Basically everything u do on ur bbc (as long as u aren't utilising ur network providers APN in ur TCP/IP) is being encrpypted and compressed at blackberry server end.
Blackberry decided to go a differnt route on "subscription protocol" with their phones running QNX (BB10 OS) because:
1. Remember the incident last three yrs when their server went out, it cost them a lot of their enterprise userbase as well as monetary compensation for the service disruption, coincidentally lots of corporate organisations adopted iphone and to a lil extent android after that debacle.
Thus they also considered the scenario repeating itself again and opted against it on the BB10 phones hence allowing u flexibility of changing internet provider shud that be an issue (bbm, mails don't work on older devices without BIS/BBC, but u can still use ur browser and other third party apps in later revision of the OS (OS5 to OS7)
2. Purpose of server end compression services (BIS/BBC) in the first instance primarily, was to ensure smooth packet transfer because data services back then wasn't very efficient due to yet inadequate facilities by even the likes of tmobile, AT&T et cetera, because their main customers was enterprise users and not you or me initially... Unlike now that we have 3G, 4G and even 4G advanced in south korea.
I cud go on and on, but like I said, pls go do some homework before u dispute the facts I laid out.

Please brothers and sisters let us as well talk to this person who says he is an agent of Etisalat here www.nairaland.com/1365152/etisalat-customer-care-thread

thanks!

Many of us think of the Internet as a global
community. But two-thirds of the world’s
population does not yet have Internet access.
Project Loon is a network of balloons
traveling on the edge of space, designed to
connect people in rural and remote areas,
help fill coverage gaps, and bring people back
online after disasters.
Project Loon balloons float in the
stratosphere, twice as high as airplanes and
the weather. They are carried around the Earth
by winds and they can be steered by rising or
descending to an altitude with winds moving
in the desired direction. People connect to
the balloon network using a special Internet
antenna attached to their building. The signal
bounces from balloon to balloon, then to the
global Internet back on Earth.
Project Loon starts in June 2013 with an
experimental pilot in New Zealand. A small
group of Project Loon pioneers will test the
technology in Christchurch and Canterbury.for android users

49likes on fb is not encouraging,please let us all hit the like button on fb n twitter.

seriously the future of nigeria lies on our (youths') shoulders.

Him say make we drop our issues for that thread

dis is wat i posted on my fb timeline just recently,you all shud pls do dis n invite our pals

you all should please join the ongoin
thread about fair data usage in nigeria
instigated by nigerian youth to demand fair
and just data subscriptions like bb
subcription for all other data users like
pc,Android,symbians and even java fones.
Join the movement now or never,it's time
we nigerian youth speak for ourselves
because the future of this great nation lies
on our shoulders and we can't achieve
anything by mere sitting on our hands,we
have to strive and it all start somewhere.
some people would think that should not
be our priorities now but i tell you the
importance of using internet by the
students cannot be over-emphasized
especially in this protruding era where you
have to read online,print out,post on your
school course forum which is being used to
award marks in schools like FUTA,and so
many varied reasons.
with #1000,we alk know can sunscribe for
unlimited usage on blackberries and the
same #1000 you will b given just 200mb
for all other users apart from bb users,be
it Aos,Ios,symbian,window phones,java,pc,
etc. Truely we can agree this is not fair.We
know how much data Aos,for
example,consume daily and the fact that
Aos and Ios is now the favourite all over
the world and of course the reasons we
ain't ignorant of.
Pls let's not listening to their biz strategies
as they would always have one or two
excuses to give with their sweet
talk...Enough said at this juncture,action
they say speak louder and better than
speech.
We will be addressing other issues
subsequently but let us deal with this
telcoms and NCC first.
Like the page of this revolution on fb 'data
users demand fairness'
and on twitter follow # datausersdemand
sfairness ...do these and post on your fb
timeline,twitter pg and inform others.
Thanks and God bless Nigeria

kippo: In full support jawe!!.....buh if were asked wat we want wat will our reps say?, so that wise,lets all agrre on a particular bundle..."ANDROID PACKEGE"
For=1000=3gb
1300=4.5gb
2500=8gb
3000+=unlimited
At this junction,if we are nt offered a 500 naira package!! I dont think there should be any regrets...(my opinion thou)

Since it is time for this networks to pay us back and in order not to suggest high price tag rates which might not favour all, it is reasonable we unify on intermediate price proposals so that in the long run a balance can be striked.
PRICE PROPOSED:
UNLIMITED INTERNET ACCESS/MONTH =#1000
3GB/MONTH = #700
1GB/WEEK = #400
250MB/ DAY = # 150
WE SHOULD PROPOSE WHAT AN AVERAGE NIGERIAN CAN AFFORD, IT IS ACHIEVABLE
