ETISALAT "what has become of your GREAT brand?"
I am one of the few people that took cover with etisalat when they unveiled their wonderful service as a result of the BAD services Subscribers endured from MTN, AIRTEL and GLO networks alike. Then; the almighty Blackberry was introduced and etisalat brought a paradigm-shift in the mobile network industry with their UNLIMITED data browsing plan, and once again I was glad to associate myself with etisalat. At a certain point, if you didn't have an etisalat line, you were not regarded as "cool".
My happy evening became a sad one after receiving a text message form your customer service route that my 1month Unlimited data plan had expired after 12days of subscription' without a prior notification of the service plan. Then i called the customer service to get an explanation why my data bundle would expire before the specified date. Her response was that I had consumed all my data. What! In 12days? And that the unlimited plan had being scrapped. "Bullshit".
My point of view; retain the unlimited data plan & increase the data fee instead of eradicating the unlimited subscription & reducing the data fee to a thousand naira. I assure you that in no time. Etisalat would become of no use to people just like MTN & AIRTEL alike. 90% of etisalat subscribers joined the network due to your impeccable internet services & not really to make calls; because etisalat does not have a wide coverage like MTN. Trust me, I travel a whole lot across Nigeria.
The QUESTIONS you should ask yourself:
(1) Why did etisalat decide to eradicate their UNLIMITED browsing plan on the Blackberry?
(2) Why does etisalat feel reducing the amount for blackberry data bundle like other networks, would make up for the bad services rendered? since "THEIR EDGE OVER OTHER NETWORKS WAS REMOVED (the unlimited plan)"
Kindly note that I would gladly and logically pay N5000 for the unlimited blackberry data bundle than paying N1000 for a worthless 3GB of browsing data.
SUGGESTION: I would implore the management of etisalat to define their class of internet bundle users; those who prefer to subscribe to a thousand naira from those who prefer to pay a higher fee for a better service.
The N1000-3GB should be different from the unlimited data and whatever fee you decide to charge.

Tested mine again n it worked

Still isn't working. Tells me to sign into wifi network

Baadal is it still working on yours till now and is dia any special setting you used?pls kindly respond.thanks

no special settings whatsoever. ..guess am lucky

It works around 12pm till evening 7-9pm daily. That is my observation.

It no longer works here too.. Bt I was in one of their mobile offices in Total filling stations and the geek guy there told me it still works. I got home and it was kinda slow when I tried it with my tab and it didn't even work on laptop. I guess its a network issue on theere end. Let's just every they return hale and hearty as they left otherwise na airtel tinz for me be that

No one should bother visiting this useless blog. The alternative the blog suggested is what we already been using for a long time : Airtel bis.
Nonsense..

Mine stopped working about 10days ago. It was bliss while it lasted

Not working

Any updates? Is it working?

Here is what I observed..
It connects and works only when you switch your device to "EDGE" does not work on 3G..
But you have to connect and disconnect until it loads..
I don tire 4 d tin sef..
Saving 1500 for Airtel joor..

It is now working for me and also for a friend of mine that w as complaining as well. I think its a network issue. Etisalat people in the house dey observe like say dem no dey here..make una well done ooo.
