the speed depends on your area. In my area, the speed is very OK though it is poor when I get to some other areas
is like you're trying to convince me to vote SHEKAU as Nigerian president.

Glo made the wrong move by reviewing its data subscription plans.
Nobody would have complained even in the light of poor internet service cos of the data bonus which is a compensation

Airtel also reduced their 2g-network 6gb to 3gb. So I think all the network must be carefully checked before making any hasty decision.

glo is the best network I have used imagine recharging 200 and you will get free 1000 airtime to call glo to glo and a whooping 250mb to broswe. currently I have not seen any seen any network that is more reliable and efficient than glo. glo rule your beautiful world!

MTN doesn't zap data. They charge based on your actual usage.


Airtel is another story.

I use 9mobile though, even though there data plans are expensive, I prefer them. Just like MTN, they don't zap too and I get lots of bonuses.

For instance, if I recharge 1k, I get 1200 for calls for other network and another 1200 for 9mobile lines.

If I use 1.2k to subscribe for their 1.5gb plan, I get 750mb bonus to use for one month during the day between 5:01am to 11:59am. And another 750mb bonus to be used for one month between 12am to 5am.


Making a total of 3gb?
Re: Bye Bye To Glo Data Subscription by Tedama(m): 2:46pm On Feb 11, 2018
I observed that glo network is now slow in areas where it used to be fast before. In those areas the 3g sign now shows 2g or none. In my house it's so fast because the 3g shows there. In my office its always 2g and so slow. So what I did was to call 444 which is their internet customer care number. It was frustrating but I eventually spoke to them about the area with 2g coverage. So they sent their technician there to service their equipment. Within few hours the 3g network came fully back. So please call 444 and complain about ur area. They will rectify it. If u don't complain they won't know. Please spread this info

Shebi that one good na. In my own case, there will be network on the floor of my bedroom but not on my bed. If I really want to browse, I will move to my parlour on top of my 3 seater couch, that's where I will get good network reception. I will still subscribe to glo sha not withstanding. I just don't trust those Indian Airtel people. 4Gb is normal 800mb.

No network in my house except in the toilet and on the kitchen cabinet.. I still have 7.9gig left

Glo is like buhari govt to me. After buying data, the 3g will just be playing me hide and seek game. I no fit cry. Thank God I am delivered. Now using MTN data.
Glo did not know they do us good by reducing their data.
how much is the data now? What did they reduce?

i havent loaded since they promised 4gb and gave me 1.5gb in Jan.
Re: Bye Bye To Glo Data Subscription by daveson2020(m): 3:30pm On Feb 11, 2018
Glo is the worst network in Nigeria followed by airtel. Ncc are not doing anything.

My data just expired and sms alert was sent from Glo network. I'm glad to inform you that I was happy it was finally over with the frustration of the highest order. For the past one or more week, I couldn't open a website page with it.
It was badly timed for glo: reduction of data volume by half combined with the dead network. Bye bye to rubbish.
Please, don't tell me that it was due to my area.



You learnt this in hard way... I had for long neglect that "useless good for nothing glo network"

I read through your four questions. Let me just say that I'm not new to phones and Naija networks. It affects me and it affects people around me. It's a new development. This issue has always been there before but it is currently at a new level. Did you take your time to read few comments here? That says it all. Thanks.

I was also in such bondage for many years (in the name of patronising a Nigerian telecom provider).
God delivered me of the bondage early last year.

I experience better service with Aitel ever since then.

Re: Bye Bye To Glo Data Subscription by ChimaAgbalajob: 4:02pm On Feb 11, 2018
I hate Nigeria just because our Government does not care about issues like this.

Ghana, Kenya and smaller Africa countries have many internet service providers with cheap and fast services.

In Nigeria, it is always paddy-paddy system. They give licences to a few individuals to have virtual monopoly on the country. Instead of giving licenses to small companies to provide services in their area and help introduce competition and high quality services in Nigeria.

Controlling everything from one office in Abuja has been the root of corruption and inefficiency in Nigeria.

I recharged 1k, left it for one day and N100 gone. I called them and I was told that I subscribed to whatever and that they had unsubscribed me. The next day, another N100 gone! And they wouldn't notify or alert you that they have deducted your airtime, you can only know if you check your airtime balance. My brother abandoned two glo SIMS over frequent airtime stealing with no end to it.
You are not lying. Glo do steal airtime. There was a time I had 2k credit on my sim, the next day they have deducted 100 Naira. I called them, they were telling me rubbish that I subscribed to one thing. I told them I want to deactivate it, which o did. 2 days ago, 100 Naira was deducted without notification.

Mine remains 304mb, once it finishes, I'm moving the glo SIM to my small Fero torchlight phone,just for call bonus.
Very frustrating network. In the same house, network will be in room A and not in room B. Or in a room, the network in the bathroom will be stronger than the one in the room

Common sense should tell you to use your seating room as the bathroom while you use the bathroom as seating room. grin grin grin don't thank me. What are friends for?
