Warning: Glo 3gb Data Cap, Draining Fast - My Observation. by Afromalaika(m): 2:32am On Aug 28, 2015
I reloaded/renewed my data subscription on 19th August, 2015 which was successful, only for me to get another message today, 28th August, 2015 that my data will be autorenewed. Kindly note that I did not do any download of video/audio of any kind and I did not do any application update or firmware update on my Jiayu s3 advance. In fact, my firmware update is set to wifi only. Anybody experiencing this, what could be the problem?

Dis same tin happened on my last data renewal, tot it was spent fast cos of some minor software updates, only to discover d new subscription is burning fast too. I'm beginning to suspect Glo has deliberately reprogram it thus. My opinion anyway.

I guess it's because your are using are android phone. This subscription was specifically made for BlackBerry phones, Mine can last me up to the normal duration with heavy downloads and streaming.

I don't observe what you people are talking about, because i had 520mb now and my data will expire on 30th of this month.so as far as I'm concerned Glo Bis remain the only cheap and long lasting data for now.

What we are saying is that your 520 be will not last you for a week. The validity will however remain the same. In order words, your data will be exhausted before your validity irrespective of how you use it. Just watch out.

I'm sorry it's a different thing here! I'm really experienced with EtiSalat subscription and how fast it drains. Couldn't bear it anymore that's why i reverted back to Glo and tbs, Glo has really been doing it. I really don't like checking the data balance but you can believe me i browse with no restrictions, i stream videos, download apps and do anything when needed. Only to check my data balance few days ago and found out i still have up to 1gb.




My new data balance in the screen shots. To me it's even draining less
