5 Things You Should Know Before Buying Etisalat Blackberry Plan. by dele1727: 8:13am On Dec 13, 2014 |
Don't be deceived by their(as I was) #1000 for 3Gb plan, it is the biggest scam of all time. 1, They offer 3Gb that works on only blackberry Apps not on third party applications (meaning that anytime you use apps like whatsapp,facebook,wechat,operamini,ucbrowser thisday,Goal etc you will be charged from your airtime) 2, They charge 1.5mb as 1mb (meaning that that if you use 100mb you will be charged 150mb) 3, They data can not be shared in any form even through hotspot (meaning that you cannot use it with friends or connect it to your laptop ) 4, Of course every one knows by now that you can not use it on android and modem or any other form apart from a Blackberry device. 5,They(etisalat) have the least coverage area among the gsm networks (meaning you may not be able to use the data plan @ where you are going to. CORPERS Beware) VEDICT: So what does this all mean it simply means that the “3gb” is nothing but 100mb.since you can't use it in anyway than to ping and who can ping away 3gb in 1month. Please beware it is bad enough that our government is screwing us, but foreigners raping us on our own soil is unbearable. Please go for better plans from Airtel,Glo, or Mtn( atleast they tell you the truth) 3 Likes 1 Share |

You also risk loosing your SIM (it will not be able to receive 3gb signal anymore) if you opt out of the subscription before it expires. |

dele1727: Op, you are a big fat liar sha. I use etisalat myself and I never load any extra airtime because I have a small nokia I use to receive calls(also etisalat). Sometimes I even have up to 1gb data left at the end of the month. Although I do agree with the other points 4 Likes |

Op.. I wonder where u got ur idea from. 1. Yes 3gb app work for blackberry apps, u may get charged extra for WhatsApp etc(not all the time, its APN dependent, which makes it look like u never lack connection all the time unlike others). It works on zero naira. 2. If ur 100mb is taken as 150mb, then oga u need either a new phone or calculator. 3gb for a bb os 7 and below is ernomous, Lots of ppl never get to finish it,don't know where u got ur calculation from. 3 and 4 U bought a blackberry data plan bro, why are u complaining about hotspot etc, this was never a problem for u me or others in the past why now? If u must use android get a data plan (have u noticed the network is never saturated, there are different plans for everybody, no shortcuts. I believe it was only Etisalat and Glo that were giving 3gb while d others were between 200 to 2gb for higher. 5. Though network coverage may differ, I tell u wherever u see the network, its always blazing fast. Ask ur neighbors. 2 Likes |

threadstone: Since ur the most constructive with your opnion let reply urs first... Ur first statement says it all if I pay for a bis plan why still charge me extrta for any applications I use, 2. If u going to charge extra why was it not mention before subscribing and only got to know it when am already in.3, it was even Confirmed by their custormer care when I called giving third party crap 4, Get a phone that can keep tabs on ur data uploaded and downloaded . U will see that my claim about 1.5mb for 1mb is correct 5,I mention hotspot to confirm that all means of using the fake 3Gb is blocked by their excellent geeks. Oya oga waiting for your reply |

Re: 5 Things You Should Know Before Buying Etisalat Blackberry Plan. by brightnelly(f): 10:10am On Dec 14, 2014 |
dele1727: Oga!!! Stop saying what u don't know! I used etisalat BIS for THREE YEARS and during those years I make sure I exhaust all my data! I DOWNLOAD, WHATSAPP, FACEBOOK, USE OPERA MINI, UC BROWSER ETC. the only thing u can tell me is that they will be deducting ur airtime wen u have any! But with N0.00 u can surf any site and use any application even stream sef with ur BIS. I used to download from YOUTUBE and FZMOVIES then. So please make a good enquiry first before coming out public! Most of this our CUSTOMER CARE AGENTS doesn't know anything about their work especially the FEMALE ones! they will even end up confusing u more! |

Re: 5 Things You Should Know Before Buying Etisalat Blackberry Plan. by hahn(m): 10:21am On Dec 14, 2014 |
dele1727: First of all, I will like to dedicate my understanding of your crap write up to my Blunders of English language dictionary. Yes, i download and stream videos, tutorials etc from youtube but let's face it, etisalat is reliable wherever they have network coverage. They haven't been in the telecoms business as long as other networks to reach more locations than they presently have and as a customer I hope they are able to do that soon. Their customer service is reliable and recently I had my bis re activated after I mistakenly deactivated it last month with no hassle and a lot of help from their customer service. People like you who don't know what it takes to run such a business always expect to get things for free. There's a reason why its called a BIS plan. B is for Blackberry. If you want a modem then buy one and if you want an android plan, subscribe to one. If you don't like their service switch to something else. Oruwe 1 Like |

brightnelly: Can you see this... Is that we don't understand what we say or we don't read what we write Should they remove airtime at all and do you defend what was confirmed by a lady customer agent and a guy data geek..... Please let's stop this shit and accept the truth |
