Hotdiamond: Ah wonder o. No be by force to use airtel. If the always micro data plan is ok for him then let him use it. He thinks airtel network is not up to glo's Standard then use glo. And keep quiet for once. Haba!
There's no better admission than you posted that, your Airtel is actually crappy according to the creator of this thread.
It might interest you to know that, I have subscribed to another Glo Always Micro plan, due to your Airtel crappy network in Benin City.
Now, it rains this night in Benin and your Airtel fails to show up but, Glo is blazing with high speed in the midst of the rain. So, go and think well.

They are not just crappy or slow, they are now close to being dead when it comes to data connection. Imagine them taking off about 123MB data that i had left on my phone and i didn't use my phone to browse at all. Last their data connection went off on my phone and it's not since then. So, i wonder how i will use 123MB between last night and this morning when there's even no data connection on my phone. These are cheats(Indians are known to be cheats anyway).
Right now dropping their SIM and i will try MTN for now. F...cking Airtel.

Hello! The Airtel FB and Twitter handles offer you direct access to the customer care representatives. With this, your network issues can be easily and quickly resolved. Thanks.

aze: you mean we should spend the whole day over your cra.ppy network trying to connect and reach you with almost a next-to-non existent data network?

Your empolyer must be embarrassed and ashamed of your.post here. They lack quality service hence the Twitter and Facebook addy.u posted Why? because customer care doesn't exist.

I think d reason for airtel's sluggishness is two. One, there's a cheat currently runnin on d network. Pple are gettin up to 200gb free fr airtel; imagine dat! Furthermore, since airtel MB can work on any device....d PC users are conjesting d network. Secondly, since Glo just blocked ppl frm usin their BIS plan on other devices, there's been a mass migration to airtel since they're d only one supportin BIS runnin on any device.

In summary, airtel's current network issue is due to congestion!!!

I'm quite sure the operatives are workin at top speed to resolve d iissue. Probably by bannin d use of d BIS on any other device apart frm BB.

Did any body get a call from Airtel that they need to register their number again because Airtel lost the information in their database?

I'd say watch it, that looks like the hatching of a scam right there. Don't fall for it.

sometimes the network is very annoying!!! very very slow
Re: Airtel Internet Is Presently Slow And Crappy by Anayordike(m): 7:44pm On Mar 15, 2013
It's very very slow here in Ilesha. Only one signal on my Tecno N3. I have been attempting to open 3 web site pages; only Nairaland is opening. Others simply ignore me. Honestly I have never known Airtel as a fast internet provider. The first time I bought the Modem some years ago, I had to resell it when it became unbearable. Very slow and annoying. Nooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!

Its a genuine call, I beleive they suggested they come and do it for you? If not walk in to any of our shops and register your SIM as U risk disconnection.

The network issues are regrettable, however if you are going to consider number portability registeration is of utmost importance! Salam.....

Hi ya. Bro how do I do same on my Galaxy? I changed my APN the same way we did with Glo then, but after doing so, I could only update Facebook status and nothing else. None of my browsers could work. Not even Google play. Would appreciate your quick reply pls. I've been offline for a long time now.
