nenergy: I Sincerely don't understand all this noise. Well I blame the service providers for allowing BIS work on non-BB devices in the first place. If it didn't work then all this racket won't exist. If you love diesel, then buy a diesel powered car. Una one use fuel for diesel engine.hahahahah

In other words, BB users alone are entitled to BIS, while non BB users (predominantly Android) should stick to the regular subscription packages. see indirect beefing o na so e still dey pain una reach say BB don die?

dunmorris: dead indeed,
poor network
imagine airtel sim sells for 50# dats to tell dere end time has come...

dem they give am free for here o

we moved to airtel.
Now the curse of ecpnet, celltel and vmobile has befallen airtel, we are moving enmasse to etisalat otmr glo (anyone that seizes the opportunity faster)
in a month or two Airtel'll be thimking of a new name.

And so if etisalat blocks theirs(if they havent already done so) u move to where? Abeeegi

Why did u distroy your sims,airtel didnt block any thing,it was just an ordinary threat,my bis is stil working,i did it on the 3rd of dec,seems airtel changed their mind after all.moderator do your job

dheaven: Stoping blackberry internet service on non blackBerry device cannot kill Airtel rather it will improve their service cos they will now have a superfast internet service which pple will be willing to pay for. Too much users is making their service poor. Airtel now wishes to focus on quality and not quantity as mtn is doin presently. Though i will advise they look for a way to improve their service and make their data service cheaper as it is in other countries

airtel manager, we hear you.

~Bluetooth:
Airtel is running a business not a charity organization and if stopping BIS on android seems to be a better business policy to them, let them be and move to another network. If other networks are not doing it, Airtel shouldn't be forced to do it. Business is about competition and making profits. You are entitled to dump their network if you don't like their services .

If anybody feels aggrieved, they should take it up with the necessary regulatory agencies to negotiate better deals from service providers.

inasmuch as I was at the recieving end of the NoBisOnAndroid move, I cant help buh agree wif u.

How this makes front page and other intelligent post doesn't still beats imagination.

That's the simple truth. It is obvious that some people have refused to accept the reality on ground. Airtel was even merciful for allowing the service to run for almost a year while other service providers didn't allow it to run for two months.

emmydeep: The family of airtel nigeria, wish to announce the untimely death of airtel nigeria.
Airtel nigeria died yesterday 3rd of december, 2013 after a brief cancer of vote of no confidence past on it for none performance, embezllment, theft and 419 by over 40,000,000 nigerian youths of the online constituency.

Untill its death, airtel was the leader of the internet service providers association of nigeria.
It was gatherd that its wickedness towards its family members made them to also reject its corpse.

Airtel was burried in the evil forest according to traditional rights. It was also gatherd that all its family members gatherd together the only gift it gave them while alive (airtel sim) and
burried it alongside.

Left to celebrate its death are; globacom, etisalat, mtn and others to numerous to mention.
Left to mourn him are nairaland, linda ikeji, seun osewa, naija loaded, and over 40,000,000 youths in nigeria.

Airtel's judgement has long begun and will be in hellfire soon.

Final verdict! Airtel i have burnt your sim oo oo oo.

Your just deceiving yourself. Airtel is here to stay

izeek: How this makes front page and other intelligent post doesn't still beats imagination.

It made front page because traffic to this site have reduced drastically and all hands are on deck to use every possible means to make airtel reverse their decision.

Airtel is not only here to stay but airtel is also here to make life better.

People Should know That A Privilege Is Not A Right.

Roland17:
Which one come be AUSS again? U sure say u dey go school wen dem send u sha?

Lol.... Ah kon dey wonder wetin concern ASUU with Airtel Nairalanders heh

Sincerely, this is a senseless thread, I feel the same way towards the OP

I don't think I understand this antic again. It was funny at first but now it's annoying. It's like looking for a weak child and trying to bully that child because s(he) is making a stand. Why not bully/issue threats to MTN or Etisalat?

The only puzzling thing about this whole brouhaha is that, Airtel's edge over other networks was in the fact that you could always re-subscribe once your data was exhausted regardless of the fact that your duration wasn't up. This means more airtel cards were bought.

Oh well, they know what they want. They are the ones seeing the figures whilst we can only speculate.

It affects me because I can't use in a modem as before but I cannot break this 'celtel' line, was my first line before MTN. If push comes to shove, I'd rather buy a nokia two sim phone, put the both lines there as call lines and use an internet-user-friendly network for my bb.

Ehen, lest I forget. Airtel, Tis' cruel that N1,000 is 200mb whilst N1,500 is 2gb even for bb. The 'wide' difference is so not cool.

Ephramed: As wuna dey throw way sim,browsing come dey fast.na gud tin be that oooo.

I thot I was the only one DAT noticed it o. since yesterday nite, d airtel network don't dey stable back. na all dis airtel-bb-plan-on-android opportunists dey slow the network before. pls if u bought ur airtel because of bb plan on android, do we loyal customers a favour......don't ever use the sim again

sniperwolf:

When MTN blocked the BIS people moved to AIRTEL because that was Opportunity for them. Now people will move back to MTN.

If Airtel decides to offer the same data capacity of MTN for same about, who would be using Airtel. After all I always move to my gate to get better connectivity with my Airtel

Why didn't you guys break and burn your mtn sim cards.? What's this noise about Airtel as if they have done what has never been done by any network.
Consider mtn and Airtel BIS on other devices and tell me the regime you most benefited.

but people say the stuff is still working, so why the undue fussing

Who cares..by the way..How do I install BBM on my Nokia 3310?

U ppl are funny. Airtel makes me able to connect to WAP. That is go to a link posted, message, emialed or whtever sent to me without being on browsing link. I dont see y it should go, and moreover nt everybdy use andriod phone.

hahaha.. Op funny eh. U try for the write up sha. Now airtel what all these complains and failing to meet customer's demands? My bros here doesn't even know where he kept his sim now because he is tired of calling customers service.

fresh_dude: Meanwhile, your primary and secondary school teachers did a poor job teaching you tense and spelling.

Lol!

Airtel no go die. Who is the new buyer.

Airtel is a poor network provider. No growth. poor network. Bad management. I'm not surprise at their inexperience to provide easy and efficient service.
