Glo is the worst network in Nigeria. Their services are terrible and frustrating. What is the essence of priding themselves as the largest data network while their data network is as slow as a snail? Glo keep churning out attractive data plans instead of working on their terribly slow Fibre optic cable powered network. what is the essence of those huge gigabyte data allocation when one can hardly exhaust 1Gb due to Glo's terrible network? Most times when you browse or download on Glo the H+ logo on your phone disappears only to return after some seconds hereby interrupting your work. The useless network is the only network that stops working once there is a heavy rainfall. The Glo service will disappear on the phone for hours or a whole day sometimes. Their customer service is the most frustrating of all. They hardly resolve complaints. All they know is restart your phone or we will forward your complaints to the necessary department Glo has really frustrated my life but I chose to remain with them due to patriotism. I urge everyone reading this to boycott Glo for 48hrs in protest and let's see if they will work on their slow network.

The above is my personal experience and opinion using Glo. Please share your frustrating experiences with globacom

It's the bitter truth.glo is the goddamn slowest network on earth!!! At first i ported to their network due to affordable data prices but their snail like speed chased me away,at times i could spend up to 30mins downloading a 8mb file Many times the signal dissapeared for hours.Their poor speed frustrated me for 3 months

Nowadays my glo sim is only used for calling and texting

The guy must be a glo staff trying to defend the indefensible. I am going back to mtn or Etisalat and I advise you to do the same

GLOBASNAIL YEYE NETWORK

The worst is seeing hspa+ on your 3g enabled phone but getting speeds as slow as snail. That's scam!

The only strategy they use in winning customers is by allowing their BlackBerry plan to work on Android unlike other networks. Many people went for their cheap option but they lost focus by not improving their network as their subscribers grew. I bought 1.5Gb from glo and I regret. Can't even stream simple 3minutes video. Useless network. All they know is to sign myriads of celebrities to advertise their quack services

Even as I am related to the CEO I had no other choice than to dump the sim.



The last time I subbed on the sim I let over 3 gig waste away because the network was starting to affect my brain.




I would send ordinary ping or WhatsApp message and it would take over 10 minutes to deliver.



It came to a time I even thought my phone had problem when network will just disappear.



The truth is, Glo need to shut down for a while to sort their problems.....it's really embarrassing

I hate to be part of dis but mehn I am really frustrated and considering a port to probably Etisalat.

I've bn using only my glo line for over 10yrs, d same sim card. I haven't changed d sim since I got it over 10yrs ago.

The way it's looking now, I may have to port eventually, cos of d slow network.

Tho dey claimed dey hv issues wt d 3g, dat we shud use d 2g for now. But even d 2g sef na problem.

But one thing I discovered is dat, from 12am to 6am, d network becomes extremely fast, as soon as it's few minutes past 6am it goes back to default slow speed.

I didn't subscribe to night browsing o. Na normal subscription I do, but glo expect me to stay up all night b4 I can chat wt friends who are already sleeping.

Hmmm...

The problem is that they failed to expand their data infrastructure as their data customers increase. It will be slow during the day due to massive usage and faster at night due to low usage. I hate glo like mad now

Since u are related to the ceo why not try to make them aware of their crappy network and services? You might save them from other competitors

All I just need now is a small Nokia phone and am done with Glo. And to make the matter worst the data allocation we get here is peanuts compared to what Ghana is getting and it's even cheaper there and we that are their homeboy gets scrap for data and worst voice and data service.

There was sometime late last year and early this year i decided to patronize them for all my calls and data.

Once i load their weekly plan and use it for 2 or 3 days, it stops working yet the data is still remaining because they usually announce by text when you have exhausted 80% of ones data. I will reload and subscribe again, 2 days its off.

Their rate of dropped calls is over 60%. I call and my receiver picks and i wont be hearing anything.

I tried them for 8 weeks and left them. To me, they are useless. Very useless.

I thought I was the only one whose glo line only connects to the internet around midnight to 6am but doesn't from about 6am to midnight when i'm not on a night plan. Now I know it is a big network issue glo has failed to resolve so far. From my experience etisalat is the best network for browsing, by far ahead of glo, mtn or airtel.

Ever since I ported to Etisalat, I've never looked back

CHESTER48:

See it is not by force op. If you don't want to use glo, then port to any other network. They didn't force you to use their network. And stop inciting riot/protest or fight. And any mod that moves to fp lacks understanding and want to incite riot or protest too. Please mods CLOSE THIS THREAD

Mr glo ambassador, sorry I hit a nerve but won't I exhaust my snail speed data before porting to other network? U talk like a lay man. Why do u rant on politics section about APC government policies when u can simply port to another country? I am a glo customer and I have the right to protest when I feel cheated. That way my voice will be heard

Noooo. I'm actually experiencing the same thing. I'm switching over to MTN. Thank God it's a competitive market.

In this day, age and century glo is still giving their customers EDGE when other networks are rolling out 4G services. and my phone is set to HSDPA but yet GLO is giving me EDGE. I can't just wait for my subscription to expire so that I throw their useless sim card in the next available dustbin I see. They lure customers with cheap data plans but give poor service delivery.
#Never Again shall I use GLO in my lifetime.

Gbam. They only have quantity not quality. This is why they are crashing data market cos they know they can't compete in terms of speed and efficiency

I don't think that happens everywhere especially in campus area... I enjoy glo when I use it to browse.

I purchased glo bolt modem for my laptop, i subscribed for 1GB
After its installation, i tapped my default brower, type in bbc.co.uk, i waited for a hundred years in utter silence for this page to open. i tried same website from my mobile, enabled by another network, bam it opened in a jiffy.
For over a week nothing. i took it to their office, they said it might be my location or my system
I said okay, i took out a modem of another network, hit the browser, pages came tumbling down, that absolve my system.
i inserted their bolt, hit the browser, for a thousand years we waited. this was in 2014.
They reverted to network congestion, up till today glo internet network is still congested.
Fact. Chief Adenuga is using glo network to scam Nigerians and laundry questionable.funds

Perhaps the man is too rich to have time for glo when he has others source of wealth like oil well in the Niger delta. The oil business comes first for people like him and they offer crappy service to Nigerians because we have irresponsible leaders. This kind of poor Internet and voice services glo offers can make them loose their license in saner climes
