Glo Internet Has Become Very Useless.... by blackfase(m): 5:35pm On Nov 13, 2016
Just this wkend, we read in the news one of their outlets was shut due to rent issues. We have also been inundated with complaints over time about the very pathetic internet services rendered by Glo. Well im presently on the receiving end and i feel like wailing. Though it works on mobile, it has flatly refused to do so on modem. And im more pained and frustrated cos iv been fortunate to enjoy some power supply past couple days which would've served me well dealing with a backlog of stuff that needs attention but Glo keeps stalling my effort. I think Glo is heading south...someone should tell them its not about dishing out huge data,or to what end will that be for if its unusable?

Glo rocks at my area- Barnawa GTG, Kaduna, add to the extra 2k it offers to call all network on recharge of 1k.....I love it.However, if it doesn't serve you well at your area, why waste time wailing over it. Go get another that would do a better job.... After all no particular service provider does a perfect job in the country over 247....

Glo is very pathetic. Just one cheap article that needs to be avoided. Network tripping off every now and then.

Imagine a 4G network that can not stream. And their 3G service only located at d main towns. A little walk outa d main town of any place, it will change to a very pathetic 2G service

Op, this is not news na. It has always been so for majority of people. I know it is good in some locations but useless in most locations. No be by force to use glo, use another network. For me and in my location, the fastest is MTN (their 3g is great and their 4g even better) followed by Airtel, then etisalat. Glo is the worst.

Now just because it works for you doesn't mean you should come here and spew trash trying to defend them. Glo is very bad. Let's all say it the way it is.

U just nailed it. Yes glo works well for some people in certain locations but for majority it is rubbish compared to other networks. The only reason some people still subscribe to glo is because of their cheap plans.

Glo is0 good depending on where u stay ....where I was staying Glo was absolute hell I means 2.2 kbs....I am pretty sure it was downloading backwards grin....but where am staying now I get up to 1.4mbs which is relatively better ...glo doesn't have a good coverage ....so if you are lucky nd u stay in one of the good zones ....its the best ....I mean 1k for 3.2 gb....

Glo network is good at my location. Truth be told, they should work on their data service cos majority determines wether a network is good or not which they have given their verdict rating them low.

Get this Mr, granted Glo service cannot be totally bad throughout the country but wen 8 out of ten people are complaining about a particular thing, what does that tell you? Bad for business.
Glo could be negligibly good in ur area but on a wide range it's a mess. As I said earlier 8 out of ten pipl will ten you dat Glo network is poo.

Now regarding 4G network, it's my personal belief that no network in Nigeria offers a real 4G network going by the meaning of 4G as obtainable by its definition if you do ur research about 4G. What they offer us is a strong 3G or 3.75G HSUPA.

When ever my phone gives me a 4G signal on other networks, I can stream seamlessly but sometimes wen I manage to see a 4G signal with Glo network I would not be able to stream videos. That's how bad their network is.
