Glo na company wey get sense. While airtel go stupidly offer you 2gb blackberry data for 1500 and end up giving u a paltry 300mb and MTN and Etisalat will never even have none of that, Glo knows people are using their bb sub on Android for 3gb at 1400 yet them no block am. Can someone tell me why dem no go get customers?
Take five. The only reason am now using an android phone is coz of glo generous 3gb for Android.

But this 6gb isn't for a month I believe. Don't know of any Glo plan that will give u 6gb for 1900 all for a full month except you're using this combination : 1400 for 3gb for a month + 500 for 3gb for a weekend. Am I right? Well I get same 6gb for 2000 naira on Airtel all for a full month, that's subscribing twice a month though,1k each.

Yes, you're correct. Combined 6Gb.

#1400 for 3Gb per month and another #500 for 3Gb (all day during weekends) and 12am-5am ( weekdays ).

I'm not a heavy user and I seldom need the other 3Gb for #500, except on rare occasions.

What I'm saying in essence is that the fast speed of Glo and the option of the 3Gb for #500 ( when I need it ), makes Glo network very satisfactory to me. Obviously, Airtel does it for you.

I have no regret porting from MTN to GLO since January 6 this year. The incessant harrassment from MTN asking me to go register my sim after doing same at their office for over four times became unbearable. Glo data tarriff is fair enough and their platform which enables me add numbers of my loved ones to my line to enable them surf the internet is another laudable initiative from Glo. Though sometimes, their internet service misbehaves, it is better than MTN. Etisalat would need to review downwards their data tarriff to keep their customers and attract new ones.

NigeriaBam:
[b]The Nigerian Communications Commission report for the first quarter of 2016 indicated that Globacom has strengthened its position as Nigeria’s preferred network for new data subscribers.

In the report covering the first three months of the year just released by NCC, Globacom recorded an additional 1,448,354 new internet subscribers on its network during the period. The figure is made up of 354,178 for January, 248,593 for February and 845,583 for the month of March. Globacom’s total internet customers as at the end of the quarter stood at 26,530,420.

The company’s figure of 1,448,354 for the three months under review represents 80% of the total number of 1,820,651 new customers who subscribed to internet services of the four major telecom operators in the first quarter of this year.

Airtel recorded 319,229 new data subscribers for the three months, while Etisalat had an addition of 53,068 new internet users on the network during the period. The combined figure for the two companies makes up the remaining 20% of the total figure of 1,820,651 new internet subscribers for the quarter.

On the other hand, MTN which began the quarter with 39,924,737 data customers ended it with 33,356,595. This indicates a massive loss of over 6.5million internet subscribers in just three months.

MTN should have known better the moment they scrapped the BBLITED subs. This is what you get when you are greedy.

Lies.
For the fact we wanna sound patriotic doesn't mean we have to lie. Glo is a stuuupid network.

Browsing is so slow from where i am based. MTN is way faster but well, less reliable. Reason being server overload.
MTN and Glo employs almost the same amount of Nigerians, they both pay taxes. They support our youths (endorsement)... so why should anyone even keep givin a phuck if one is of South African origin or of Nigerian origin ?

Enough of the hate. GLO should upgrade.
The issue here is not about network speed but about data prices and affordability. I guess Glo is winning in that aspect. So even if glo is not that fast but at least most Nigerians can access the internet and make do with the speed.

Truth be told, MTN is very exploiting in there data consumption rate. Glo is truly the best, I buy a 100 card and i get 100MB, 100 to call all networks and 100 to call my fnf for four days. what could be more rewarding. I connect my mobile data to my laptop and i browse for a long time and as long as possible without any fear. Thanks Glo.
I tried just yesterday the MTN new data bundle for #100 for 30MB just to open a site and check my status, believe me, I got a message saying that the your data has been used up within one minute. Una be OLE. I can assure you that the data review by MTN without a corresponding review of their data consumption rate is another SCAM from MTN.

Who MTN epp? Glo spent 1.5 billion naira on endorsement of our artistes while MTN spent 500 milliom last year. Glo makes around 1.5 billion dollars, MTN makes 18 billion dollars with Nigeria giving it 32% yet they spent more on sponsoring artistes in south africa than in Nigeria,listed on SA stock exchange, pay dividend with Nigeria money they, evade the most tax here in Nigeria, give preferred contracts to South Africans etc who MTN epp? I prefer using my own Telco, the one that reps Nigeria because at the end of the day it has an effect on my country not MTN that sends 70% of their revenue from Naija to SA banks i prefer one that keeps it in a Naija bank atleast i might get a loan from that money one day.

Actually patience do pay my sister, but you could have been better off if you had done what I did! knowing fully well that Mtn will change someday with a good data plan, I simply relegated them to auxiliary network while glo became my preferred because I used #1000 for 1.5gig because I didn't root my phone. so now that Mtn is back with same value with some money as in my own case with glo subscription, I will simply go back to mtn because they are faster...what do you think about the arrangement?

they also forgot that 50% of those 80% leaves with the intention of never coming back after dealing with slow data speed for one week. most endured upto one month cos that's how long it takes glo to download a file of 500mb

Blame MTN for the drop in number of internet subscribers, they think they can be doing any with the subscribers, cheating on them and offering unfair prices. That's why people are leaving then to other reliable networks.

PoisonedOne:
Why can't Etisalat open their eyes and do something about their unfriendly data bundles? I've been using them since 2009 and can't stand any other unstable or slow network cry.

MTN is offering 2k for 3.5gb and I'm using Etisalat 2k for just 2gb. Why would I use their new 3.5k for 4.5gb when glo offers 3k for 6gb embarassed. I think they should have a rethink about their outrageous charges or is there something the other networks enjoy that they are denied?
I felt cheated!
I see no reason for your whining here when all you have to do is get other sims for browsing and port to the one of your choice. Except only you've been charmed by Etisalat

No wonder MTN increased their data plan. Useless network that stole my N200 credit yesterday. Sorry oo! Still rocking my glo.

Meanwhile dial *303# and get data, sms, FnF

E.g load N100, get N200 bonus, 50MB data, Intl calls for 10 mins, FnF

N200, N400 bonus for calls, 150MB data, Intl calls for 20mins, 10FnF.

what's the call rate per seconds for this plan?
