Etisalat already around.

I saw on paper, they want to give free calls for life for the 1st One Million people to register.
My friend try to register thru their website and they wanted him to enter his present number in order to cancel it and give him theirs.

But why are they requesting one to forgo his/her formal number, in order to register for their own. Is this not ridiculous

And hav anyone register thru their website to start enjoying free calls for LIFE

please fellow forum members give us more information!!!!!

People!

If u register for ur unique number wt Etisalat, u do not & cannot forgo ur former no.!(unless want to dump r no. and use etisalat when u get it)How hard is that for u to understand?

They just use the number to send text messages confirming ur registration of the unique no. (they may also use it for marketing later) BUT they cannot hijack ur MTN/Glo/Zain nos. even if they could, it would be a huge waste of time, resources not to mention numerous lawsuits! It just aint worth it!

U start to enjoy the free calls when the network is commercially launched & that is based on making a call or sendin a text in the previous 30 days(or previous month) to qualify for the free 300secs/5mins monthly. Its just like a variant of what is on ground with some of our networks eg MTN - stay connected for life if you make/receive a call OR send/receive a text every 90 days; also receive 10 free MMS monthly for making at least 2 minute call or sumthin like dat

Awoof dey run belle o!

Ha. Hey hey. If you guys like. Go and buy the whole etisalate. As i dont care

Mustay:

Does  SHOWSKILL know the composition of a sim/

Please Your Current SIM won't be replaced with the "unique number" you registered with Etisalat.


@ aiyetunje how you take know>

You are right, if you know the composition of a SIM you should know that etisalat cannot override ur MTN, GLO, ZAIN or whatever number you have. It is like them trying to look for trouble with another network which is not constitutional.

So what they do with ur current number is to be able to send your passcode and new number to you, which is faster and easier for them than to use any other method.

So there is no need to fear, you can never lose your current number, ABI DEM NO DEY FEAR FACE (MTN, ZAIN, GLO etc)

EtisaLat abi na EtisaLomu!!! whatever, we want good services, 3G, MMS, Video calls, internet facilities at cheaper rates, phone calls at cheaper rate and no network failure like OLOSHI MTN and Zainabu!!!

This is the only way Etisalat can do more better than other telecom networks unless,, ppl go still divert comot!!! make we dey watch sha!!!! Make dem no go RUN DOWN like M-TeL oooo

GLO is the best network for now, all other network!!! make dem be si KONGA!!!

hayprof:

Lol, they ain't up to that @ All. .

Replace my current line with etisalats'? Lai Lai**

If the worst come to worst I will head Ova to Celtel office and do a Sim retrieval thing. .

And am Good to go?

So, anyone else got problems with that?

My brother good talk, but if i use my glo sim and it got replaced, i will be very happy that the sim has been changed, for celtel and mtn i will hurry to their centers to retrieve my precious celtel and mtn.

i am sure tht these their professed 5min free call would be on intranetwork basis , abi ki le feel

Haba make dem come out first, lets not second guess dem

Of course it's going to be intranetwork, e get anyone wen be internetwork?

Even zain trutalk or trutext is intranetwork

My guy why are u talking like this, how is glo the best. When it comes to calls celtel is still cheaper than mtn and glo to outside network, meaning u can make call as low as 66k per/s, try use ur so called almighty glo to call outside net work like mtn, then u will see the first reason why glo is not the best. before i give u another reason i will like to know which part of the country u r living in, if u live like in the south, u will not dare say glo is the best except u r just sentimental over it, glo is complete rubbish in south, i have three phones with three lines like celtel, mtn and glo, and i justify what what i say from experience. Even as far as some parts of Almigty Lagos, glo still mess up, Celtel is very active in lagos, even in the south, north and east. Pls dont say it again that glo is the the best. If i get my glo replaced by etisalat, i will be very happy. Pls talk from xperience cos i know i do.

Wow!!! I cant wait to purchase my sim ooo. I bought this nokia phone and whenever i try to browse, it goes automatically to a homepage http//:etisalat.com and i've been wondering what its all about. Thank God i can now browse with my phone. Yipee!!!

Gilat:

Who cares? if you like get 10line of etisalate or elitislatetee . See as you Nigerian atitued bad.? Remember that Nairaland forum is accessible to internation world. So keep on degrading yourself Nigerian people.

@ Ogboraph
Ma fren u are one f those head in the sand characters abi? When pple say the truth you start talking about supporting your country and all that. The best support you can give is to point out the ills so they can be corrected. I repeat- hope Nigerian factor will not spoil things.

@mustay what boda me is that one person will just reserve 10numbers. Now tell me if every Nairalanders reserve 3 to 4 numbers each, on this new network; do u know what that means?
Then tomorow they will start broadcasting "we have 3million subscribers in Nigeria not know that only 1million people have those same numbers. Nigerians Repent

Who cares broda

@hönsule tell am. He never know any thing let them rush go. So will they rush out.
My people look una just de buy monkey for bush. Imagine them tell una say fine big white monkey don enter nija bush and all of una just rush de price am some don buy while others deposite money. Well my believe is that my MTN and Zain and GLO proudly Africa is equal to the challeng
