OnyeIbo: I will not risk bricking my phone just bcoz i wana browse with glo bis. Nonsense!

mrvocalprowess: no one is forcing u,u do it or not,it wunt change d fact chibok girls were kidnapped... mtchwwww

mariong: use *440*18# same #100 but as you may already know airtel bb sub on android runs down faster. if you monitor your data you'll see that the 80 mb is around 40 mb on normal billing.

Sike: thanks buddy. And the apn; Default setting or blackberry.net??

theogabriel: Is the Airtel BlackBerry 1+1 Offer ending this month?

nani667:

Oh boy...! Hope this isn't true sha..... And I still have plenty GB.... I'll have to try and resubscribe before next month...... No dulling

theogabriel:

Worry not... Even if they close the offer, those who have already subscribed will still have their data intact and working till its validity.

nani667:

I already know this sir.... I'm only worried that I won't be able to use the subscription again after this month.... Thats why i wanna resubscribe before the month runs out, so incase the text message they sent that dude above is for real and the 1+1 stuff is really ending this month, at least I would have another subscription to take me for another two months ✔

cecegorz: I have used this offer for two months on my S3, and just exhausted that of this month.
I definitely won't be going this route again, as it doesn't really deliver on it's promise. My data manager always report 1Gb usage as against the 2Gb quoted by Airtel, forget the fact that they say the usage will be different on non-BB devices, why is it always exactly half?
The supposed 2Gb @ N1,500 only lasts maximum of 3 weeks for me, and that means I'll have to turn off my mail sync, otherwise just two weeks of push email will exhaust the whole data.
Let me try the Android package of N2k for 2Gb and see if I will get the 2Gb in reality.

My concern is not even the double charge (since it is still cheaper than many other data subscriptions). Airtel is only as fast as a Snail in my location. My next bus stop on data subscription will be the 1000mb/N1000= via MTN DataShare @ www.greatmindsng.com

sarutobie:
I am asking the same question 'cos someone said (here on Nairaland) that the android plan also charges 1.5kb/2kb for every 1kb you use, but charge normal during the night and I ask, what is the difference??

coderXO: I bought the airtel android 2gb for 2k.
7 days later my data is left with only 23MB.

My data counter shows 1.34GB.

I just now realized why they quoted a "burn rate"

Why are these people thieves?

If you say 2GB, give 2GB assholes.

If you go to the service info page on their site,
you will notice they write

"BURN RATE
1 kobo/kb from 9:59pm - 5:59am & 1.5 kobo/kb from 5:59am - 9:59pm"

This means that during the day they are charging more to your N2000 during the day than at night which will make it get exhausted faster.

There is an actual mistake in that quotation. It should rather read 0.1kobo and 0.15kobo.


At any rate, I am tired of all the gimmicks by these crooks.

They are pure thieves.

Boycott Airtel NOW!

FCC where are you? What do you do exactly?

nani667:

This is stale gist sir... It's no news that Airtel double charge when their BIS plans are used on non BB devices..... Besides, they clearly stated that you will be charged differently if the BIS plan is used on a non BB device.... So ultimately If you're using a plan not meant for your device on your device you shouldn't complain if stuff like this happens..... I suggest you use the Android plan that gives you 2GB for 2K ✔

Tonynwaduche:
read his post well before commenting, he's complaining of the android plan not d BB plan.
