Service Disruptions With Etisalat by akaOpene(m): 2:31am On Apr 05, 2013 |
So Ashamed Of Etisalat? Hello Nairalanders, Is it only me or are there others who witness the regular disruptions in internet connection which etisalat regularly dishes out to its data bundle subscribing customers as they have been doing for a couple of days now? Is it that this only occurs whenever i subscribe to their data bundle plan or what? I ask because it was on this forum that i heard that etisalat internet connection for laptop users in reliable which made me opt for it.Unfortunately i have always had one unpleasantness or the other whenever i use my hard earned money to buy their data bundle;with the worst being the service disruption currently being experienced in their internet connections.The internet service comes on at intervals of about 20seconds only for it to disconnect.My current location is New Market road, Onitsha. I have had no network coverage to even call their customer care unit.I even tried to make my inquiry through their supposed email which was posted on their site (care@etisalat.com.ng)but the email is not working. What have we Nigerians done to be treated in such shabby manners by our leaders and foreign and local businesses? I call on NCC and the supervising ministry to please save Nigerians from all these frustrations. Finally can someone please tell me another network whose internet connection is reliable in and around the commercial city of Onitsha so that i can throw away this etisalat high BP inducer which i am currently burdened with. |

My dear, they are all like that. Every network provider in Nigeria has one ish or the other. I remember I couldn't browse last month for one full week on my airtel blackberry. Called their customer care several times and they told me everything was fine. I became pissed and switched to MTN and it still gives me the same issues sometimes. Etisalat is deemed to be the best browsing network in naija. Its just a pity u are getting them on the bad side. Maybe the network coverage where you are isn't too strong. 2 Likes |

I use Etisalat for my data needs also, they were fantastic to the extent that I changed my home subscription to Etisalat. The story has changed now with lots of intermittent outages lasting between 25 to 50 seconds and this can be so annoying considering the denial of service you experience at such times. Am presently in Lagos from Abuja on a business trip and I discovered that the quality of service here in Lagos is so terrible. The outages last longer and are more frequent. It also switches between H+ and 3G like every 5 seconds. This is quite terrible. I have not seen 3G in Abuja on Etisalat before. Too tired to switch to another provider because I consider Etisalat to be the good one out of all the poor providers as at the point I made the switch to them. I blame NCC for not knowing the importance of their job. |

All these network are only focused on Lagos. The NCC is not help matters @all, all they do is fine them millions. Maybe you shloud try Airtel/Visafone |

Bros Opene, Etisalat still remain the BEST internet providers in Naija. I think the recent network outage on Etisalat is because of the MASSIVE ATTACK on the INTERNET which affect network globally.

Read http://edition.cnn.com/2013/03/27/tech/massive-internet-attack/index.html Nwanne,thank you so much for the enlightenment,it meant a lot to me.How i wish these service providers can keep us informed of occurances that affect us,we would be in a position to understand and sympathize with them when circumstances beyond their control hinder their operation.But i scouted their sites and even tried to email them to no avail,which necessitated my coming to my favorite forum to seek answers.That has been accomplished,all thanks to you.I guess we have to be patient with them for the time being. I am not from Iyi-owa Odekpe,rather i am from Onitsha.Thank you once again and do have a great day. |

Re: Service Disruptions With Etisalat by Akanniade(m): 1:12pm On Apr 05, 2013 |
Its the same endless rat race. Whenever we hear a certain network is the best for internet, we all rush in. Kind of like when stuck in traffic: we seek all kinds of short cuts, even take one-way. I think we need more fibre optic links and more service providers. |

My dear i have been using etisalat modem and data bundle since 2011 and i have never been dissappointed till 2 weeks ago. It was so bad for me as my laptop and phone were both loaded with Etisalat data bundle which describes to you the absolute faith i had on them. I could virtually open nothing on the web for like 10 days running. I thank God they are back. |
