I subscribed to this plan on Friday 5th August and i was told i had 6gb left when i checked my balance.

Now I got an alert yesterday that I have used up 95% of my data allowance.

This means that the pan is actually 3gb. I still don't understand why Airtel is being this fraudulent??

Here are pics to serve as evidence.

The airtel plan is for blackberry OS 6.0 and below when it was rolled out, but as it worked for Android then and airtel didn't want to block it, it was decided that if you are using it on non BB device, it will be double billing.

The actual code is *440*16# then airtel came with the double recharge promo at the same #1500 for 6gig valid for 60days with *440*161# but eligibility was not always, if you sub normal in January, you may be eligible February but won't have the chance for the next subscription month.

As many started buying this data, airtel now turned it to 30days for the 2 for 1 offer, which really annoyed customers then.

To check eligibility then we used *440*440# but even till now, it's double billing for non BB phones especially when you are downloading.

Keep wasting ur time with airtel while glo rules the world. With 2500naira glo gives u 10gb or 10000mb of real data u can use on all device. The speed within my area is fantastic.

xreal:
the code doesn't even work on all SIMs.

I guess it works on selected SIM to which the eligibility message was sent.


Airtel remains my best so far in data service.

I don't know y airtel is unstable with their deals. Even their 2G 2gb for N200 has suddenly changed from 2 weeks (14days) to 10 days. Something I can't even use up to 50% in d two weeks

kuuljay:
I stick to my 6GB for 2K Glo not too fast but manageable

xreal:


You see why your first sentence is senseless?

Glo isn't good at my vicinity.

dominique:
I got the text a few days ago and I've been eagerly waiting for this current plan to finish so I can get on with the new plan. This airtel is something else. I'll jejely stick with my 5gb plan for N2,500

SycophanticGoat:


Glo is even the worst of them all. They give you the Greek gift of huge data bundles at cheaper rates only for you to realize you can't even exhaust up to 30% of it due to their worthless network connection.

Am using it on my android phone, tecno camon c8 and it's working accordingly, they only deduct what I use

Tumm:
I disagree...It runs faster but it's not 3gb

idrisalomagold:
please what is the code to subscribe for the 2G 2GB for N200?

xreal:
the code doesn't even work on all SIMs.

For those that change their imei number to BB did you think it will work well on their device

Whether you change imei or not, the subscription will work with your phone (my sister still use it on her Sony z tablet) but it's possible changing imei will zone you away from the double billing.

This subscription is still not concurrent, you still have to check if you are eligible and I noticed that eligibility is now based on how long you have subbed on the sim. Airtel only make abandoned sim eligible like I sub on airtel last this april though I do buy credit and call with it now they have made my sim eligible for the offer this August but I am afraid of the double zapping will stick with glo for now
