Very frustrating in the past couple of months .

They have very courteous staff. The most courteous among all and they can apologize for Africa but the network has been terrible and service is steadily going down.

It is not the same swift of before.

Really can't say. Ntel is flaky, but I've been using 1.1mb/s more or less steady

You can't get that with Swift.

I said they have been terrible.

My saying you can't get that with Swift obviously means you can't get up to that

I stay at Isolo, I don't know how good it is there. The Essential plus plan N8000 is what is attracting me.

I dont use NTEL so i cant confirm if it is "the way to".

Make sure you find out if it is working in your location.

From what I have heard, if it is working in an area, it is great but if an area is not well covered , its is terribly bad.

Has Anyone ever received a call from Ntel?
I mean from a Customer Care rep
Re: Subscriber Options for UNLIMITED Internet - WORTH IT? by dhealthy: 4:03pm On Aug 30, 2017
I have been using Ntel for 3 months now the network is super fast. after years with etisalat and their expensive network.
Ntel Unlimited.- 12500 and i do stream sportify and and tv series/movies Kodi no buffering. youtube is piece of cake.
I must confess when i got it it was just 2 bar outdoor. no network indoor. after like 2 weeks i got 5 bars even under my bed. with speed test it reads 19mb/s and sometimes 15mb/s.

My location Igando, lagos. Got another sim 2 weeks ago for my Tecno Phamtom 6 plus and i always have super fast internet. from festac to egbeda to ikeja to Alaba international to iyana isashi both in and out doors.

But Ntel pls work on your VoxHD app. its not compatible with Nougat

Re: Subscriber Options for UNLIMITED Internet - WORTH IT? by Umunri: 1:08pm On Sep 01, 2017
Ntel network is very fast in Festac and trade fair area where i stay.
Re: Subscriber Options for UNLIMITED Internet - WORTH IT? by miki2014: 1:24pm On Sep 01, 2017
Been using ntel around Ajah for the last 6 months.
I have never had a week of uninterrupted Service.
At some point, I knew many of their call center agents by name.
Sad but it's the reality.
So, while the speed is relatively good, ntel is by my assessment the most unreliable data network around here.
If u choose to use ntel, just know you won't get value for your money and please always have a backup.
