Warning Alert!!! Don't Buy Airtel Data For Now!!! by dangoteinlaw: 8:03am On Dec 19, 2018 |
This is to warn all Airtel users to pause buying of data till they fix their issues. They are randomly blocking peoples line from data connection. I subscribed for 1k data worth and I only used it for 2days before I was blocked off. I am not the only one experiencing this, so if you know you don't want to your money to be water under the bridge better heed this warning. I can see my balance but my line not connecting to the internet. I but 200mb on my other Airtel,I was only able to use 50mb b4 I was blocked off again. A friend of mine also have this same issue. See screenshots of my data balance, yet i can't use it. I have called customer care more than 15 times and all they do is ask where you are calling from and your name and simply shoo you off. 2 Likes 2 Shares

ShameOnAPC:if they don't do well by restoring my data connection for me to use my hard earned data then unemployment will be their portion. They will all loose their jobs and go back to their fathers houses to become dependent. Think money is easy to make that I will just forget it. I will go to their office and make sure I cause a scene there. This is a lost sheep that must be found. 15 Likes 1 Share |

Please don't mind the OP. I've been using Airtel for the past two months and I haven't experienced what the OP described. Though I'm on 4G all the time, maybe it's only peculiar in 3G areas. 3 Likes |

I was on 4G also and connection stopped after I used less than 1/10 of my subscription. They told me it would be resolved but nothing happened till 860mb went away like that. Airtel meanwhile has been stealing airtime from my phone till now. dustmalik: 2 Likes |

I currently use Airtel 4G for my browsing whuch means I don't experience any inconveniences. If the CC is not attending to you, I would advise you to visit their nearest shop Cc dangoteinlaw 1 Like |

dustmalik:Why are you Nigerians like this. Becsuse you have not experienced it omeone should not talk about his experience or are you here defending Airtel?Assuming you are an Airtel staff would you take this stand when a customer complain of poor service delivery? Or you want him to forgo his hard earned money because of your syncophancy. 10 Likes |

Airtel is fond of this. They've done it to me twice even blocking my line I was using for over 3 months citing improper incomplete registration. The question should be why wait until I subscribe for do data for f 2000 naira. |

Re: Warning Alert!!! Don't Buy Airtel Data For Now!!! by Olodo24: 2:15pm On Dec 19, 2018 |
I don't understand their mode of operation these days. Data exhausts so fast without heavy usage. But the worst is those useless service they automatically subscribed me to after I purchased the sim. I'll send stop to whatever in order to opt out as instructed and I'll be notified that I've opted out. But once I Recharge the line, they'll start making away with my airtime again. it's just so annoying. if I dare qualify to borrow airtime from them, I'll borrow and dump the sim 2 Likes |

this problem is on airtell line for the past two year, even you call there agent, there is no solution, the only solution i know is to remove your line for 3 day and insert it back, i don,t bother to call them. |

dangoteinlaw: This is true. I can't browse since yesterday after calling them that I'm having slow internet. If you're having slow internet, don't call them, they'll block it immediately. |

Call customer service on 121 and follow the voice promptly, select these numbers 1-> 2-> 3 -> 6 -> 9 and you'd be transferred to speak with a CSR, lodge your complain. After the call ends, call again following the steps above until you are told that you've made the complaints earlier and they are working on it. I had same issue and the steps above helped to resolve it within 4hrs. |
