I bought a soectrabet freedom modem with 30gb in it. I struggled to finished the 30gb under 1 month, the thing was so too damn slow that I never re subscribed after 1 month. Meanwhile on Ntel I use a minimum of 80gb in a month, sometimes 120gb. The thing is with cheap things come consequences, 1k for 12gb sounds too good, but I don't use wawu sim, I use their classic sim and I pay 3,750 every week for unlimited and it just works.

I love the spectranet freedom modem, it has a long lasting battery, how I wish it could be unlocked. But I cannot stand their snail network speed. Now this might be location based Sha.
You're right, it's probably location issue.
Thank God Ntel works for you.

How do you check your balance or expiry date if the website and app aren't loading it?

Why do I need to check balance when I'm on unlimited? I subscribe every week so once 1 week is over it stops working and I subscribe again. Their website and mobile app is sh**t. The Sim is only good for browsing and streaming.

I wanted to check out the time my 1 month sub would expire. I just checked my email and viola it has expired. They didn't even compensate subscribers for the problems we encountered especially those that often sub one month .

Why do you always opt for one week instead of one month? I agree it's a network for brrowing and streaming and yes, I'm using mainly for those purposes.

That 17k for 1 month looks like a lot of money and sometimes I don't use it for 2--3 days, so I prefer doing 1 week when I know I'm going to use it. And their app is rubbish, their website is rubbish. I subscribed since yesterday and up till now my line is not browsing, I just finished talking to their cc on the phone now and the lady said they tried activating it yesterday and it didn't go through so now they are sending to technical department and I should wait another 24 hours.

we do use ntel network in our office around calus miller in pH, through out last week up till now, thier network have been so bleeped... we even went to their office the one close to 2nd artillery near happy bite and also to the one close to shell gate and funny enough they have having d same network problem, but the annoying part is that they were selling their sim card and were trying to register new customers ... I was like this guys are not serious ... their customer will not pick their call, if u call their agent , they will say d fault is from Lagos, we had no option than to change to sepractnet, they are not as fast as ntel but they are still OK

Yes we did, 12GB for 1000 naira is really revolutionary though there is a drawback of getting a 4g device.

Ntel is not dead.

been to their alaba office over five times to purchase a sim card it’s always no network for registration story all the time...i gave up on them already anyway

Zapping of data is most annoying
Re: Should We Say Ntel Nigeria Is Dead? by blackaxe78: 10:58am On Jul 22, 2018
davidoisamoje:
So for the past weeks, ntel have been having a lot of issues ranging from:

1. Unable to sub
2. Zapping of data
3. Slow network ( can't download fast )
4. Network disconnection
5. Lot of signals for days etc.

With all this above and more, their customer care ( customer nightmare ) will keep giving you 1 same reply! If you want to try for your self, call them in the morning b4 9 am and they will tell you " before 12 pm today " call after 12 pm you get something like " in 24hours it will be resolved "

What do you think is the best step to make/take, to save our self this trouble and to avoid late delivery of works done!

Truth be told, it's dead. That company won't survive the next 12 months except if acquired by an investor ready to spend.

Anyone has a right to think otherwise, but it won't change the fact that it's down already. A miracle can't bail out.
