Glo Is Really Cheating Their Prepaid Internet Subscribers Big Time.
Can you imagine that, the Glo Instant Surf Internet plan being sold at N100 to prepaid customers is less than N100 for postpaid customers? In fact, they charged me N95.24k for the same 13MB data volume yesterday. This network (Glo) is truly taking us (their prepaid customers) for a ride.
See the message I received from 51010 after subscribing to the Instant Surf data plan yesterday with my official Glo CUG postpaid line.
Your service is charged at 95.24 Naira. Your balance is 42.50 Naira. Your usage is 457.50 Naira. Dial *103*2# to stop this message. 07:10:35 PM 13-09-2013

Well, the 30MB is a free MB on the Bounce plan but it's really annoying that, it is far less than 10MB in practice. Glo really need to up their games on every service(s) they are rendering.
However, my grudge with them on this thread is the cheating of their prepaid Internet subscribers as against their postpaid Internet subscribers. I am very sure that, the same practice is obtainable on all other data plans available on the Glo network including their BIS Internet plans too.
This cheating just have to stop.

All those networks are not better than the other. Imagine mtn charging me for caller tune when i never subscribed. They now placed their default advert as the caller tune which snacks of intelligence and sent me a message that i have insufficient balance to complete the transaction after deducting 50 naira. So tell me what's the 50 naira for? And why would i pay for a service i never ordered ?

All over the world, Prepaid customers pay more than Postpaid customers and this is not just in the telecommunications industry.

Yes , even their internet services all over Lagos is Useless and unstable. Their so called bounce internet is fake. Their modem I bought for my office at apapa is useless, the one I am using at home is useless, I subscribed for 3gig, and it will expire tomorrow, with over 1gig that will be useless because of crappy services.
You hardly enjoy your service and if you call their cc ,they will never pick it up for hours and if they eventually pick it up, they are very rude.
Besides, why would a Telecom firm be charging 20 naira per call if you want an express customer care services, only to be telling you sorry like , we will forward your request to the necessary department. They are really a thief, thank God for my etisalat .

I use glo and it works for me. The only problem I have with their data is stability and that also depends on location.

Last week when their data slept off and I needed to sort things out, I had to get etisalat line. I discovered that they have 3G coverage in my office and I opted to use Etisalat in my office. Then I discovered that Etisalat call rate ia nothing to compare to Glo's bounce plan.

With bounce, you pay N7.2 for calls to every network and N3 for anybody on bounce. Cost saving really!
Their data plan when it is working is very good too.

4G at N5K while etisalat's 3G is N6,500
7.5G at N8K while etisalat 6G is N8K
ETC

I don't work for glo but I have enjoyed their product. They can be frustrating at times. Which Network is not?

I had same issue some time ago. I called 121 and didn't get satisfactory response. I called 171 that charge N20 flat, I got my refund.
Try 171!!!!!!!!!
