Glo is the worst network in Nigeria.

They recorded that feat because of rhe cheap data rate they profered knowing nigerians prefer quantity to quality.

Nonsense crappy and wack internet services you ppl offer

Asin ehn! I don vex troway my sim self. na airtel I come dey use now

y'all keep complaining about glo poor network, I don't know if y'all live in a hole cos in my location Glo is d best.

if only they will improve their Network reception!

Glo's only problem is network. Their 3G is strong in very few places. I'm lucky to be in one of those places. Radio, Ikorodu. But whenever I leave my house to Surulere, na war to even open nairaland page. But here at home, I clock over 1MB per sec while downloading.
People who don't enjoy their network still persist with them because they could end up using only 3.2gb in a whole month.
Ps. I use 2,500 for 10gb (using the data share feature with my wife) and it finishes on the 3rd week of the month

As much as you can only speak about your experience, Glo is wack for a majority of people.

When you book space on Nairaland, Glo won't allow you to modify your "dot" again and you have just one Internet enabled phone.
