deeptesting: Etisalat is the worst network in Nigeria....I got their subscription for my Mini Apple Ipad which i do pay 2000naira for 500MB..Believe me within 3 days or 4 they will send me an sms that i have used up my MB when i did not make any download or watch movie with it. On Wednesday 30th October 2013 at about 10.00PM i activated my subscription by loading 2000naira after sending the code *229*2*2# i received a feed back that i have 500MB active data plan only to receive a message by 1am when i was asleep that i have used up my data plan. I called their Customer care severally in the morning but they could not get give me any reasonable explanation on how my 500MB data plan was used up in less than 5 hours. My Etisalat phone number is 08178392086. My friend also experienced this same issue and ported to Visa phone.. 5 years of nonsense.

I thought I was the only one going through this is with them.....I use their data subscription plan for my galaxy tab and I know how many times I have been arbitrarily disconnected. For the last incident that happened last week, I recall I then called customer service and they was informed simple that the SIM had not been registered and so was disconnected.

I went ballistic and had to ask the babe if she really understood what she was saying, as I had purchased the SIM in June and had registered in the etisalat adeniran Ogunsanya office and I had been using monthly data plan subscription since then.

I proceeded to Adeniran Ogunsanya office to see the manager in charge as I could not understand why I had to do another SIM registration even when I could still recognize the lady who I had registered my SIM Card with.

The manager's professionalism was unrivaled. Trust I practically went there ballistic as I told them I was going to break their SIM in their office and was sure to call their packages HARD CLIQUE, HARD FLEX, etc as no other network had ever disconnected my number especially as there was no sms sent earlier.

Anyways she had given it to one of them Geeks there who simply reset it and voila my data bundle was back. So I realized that the lady who I had spoken with in customer service should have simply referred me to the nearest shop and not giving a bogus excuse for the disconnection.

Happy Anniversary to them all the same but the next time my number is disconnected, I will definitely be appealing to NCC.

I see a lot of MTN staff on this thread.. Etisalat is the best..

No network gives bonus this much

Unfortunately, i don`t have the time to waste going to their office for a simple hitch that should be rectified over the phone,it is just sad. A lot of people are hungry,if i had given that 2k to someone to eat it would have made a lot of difference.. Regret! Regrets!! Regrets!!! Regrets!!!

Hmmmmmm, Etisalat is the best internet provider in Nigeria at the moment.

watin this topic come teach us....... wake me up when den begin share free airtime joor. .

wow!thats gr8 the network is pretty kool,i think it brought the needed compitition in nigerias telecommunication industry,but...y are they celebrating this special day wit such low key

Congrats to them! And may I say thank you on behalf of Nigeria to them..thanks for lending a hand in our development.

Eyop: Me too. Nothing will take me to Etisalat network.

At least its better than glo whose bis subscriptions end before its expiry date that was sent to u.
And their customer care officials still believe that if you don't have at least N100 on your bb, you won't be able to use the bis service on it.
pitiful...

Omooba77: Etisalat is 5 years old today in Nigeria;it started operation in 2008 and it has brought enough of innovation to the telecom industry. What can you say about Etisalat in the last 5 years?

MTN - first
ETISALAT - second
GLO - third
AIRTEL - forth

davades: I'm enjoying d Etisalat line I bought 3weeks ago....kudos to them

i don catch you, na because of cheat abi? .

Happy birthday Etisalat. You ROck!

yimikaa: I see a lot of MTN staff on this thread.. Etisalat is the best..

God bless u bro...wi their free seconds bonus , my GF tinks am da best in d world

Their costumer care agent's indulgence made me to dumped the network, but before that time, their network was the best for me, i can only go back to that network if they can allow their Bb subscription to work on Android devices like that of Airtel, coz the network is fair in my area but still lack 3g network at my area(federal polytechnic ado-ekiti area).

coooll

we the subscribers need affordable data plan

5yrs of exploiting poor nigerians through versaltile security. Tunde durojaye is a disgrace to our fatherland, greedy yoruba oshi.

Lilimax: I've been using MTN for years but I've just discovered that Etisalat is the best
presently.

No na.. MTN are light years ahead of them! Even in terms of TERRIBLE NETWORK!!

Etisalat started operations between June/ July 2008...I am sure of this cuz something significant was going on personally then...def not 1st of November..op has got ds info wrong..

mine was 6gig it disappeared under 2hours from my modem I wan mad that day called but they never pick I face them on twitter no show and ever since then I have never used them again

etIsalat network Is more or less the best. this is not a biased comparison because what I couldnt do wIth my mtn lIne for browsing in three months, I have been doing it within three minutes with my etisalat line.

yimikaa: I see a lot of MTN staff on this thread.. Etisalat is the best..

No network gives bonus this much

MTN gives #1000 free airtime on my line monthly with only #100 recharged.
MTN no get mate, still the best...15 mb every week on #100 recharged

Onyejiuwa okoh: Etisalat was the first to reduce network tarrif drastically in Nigeria.They started giving 15 MB data free when you recharge N200 before other network.

MTN gives 15 mb every week on N100 recharged and N1000 free airtime on N100 recharge every month, on my own line.
MTN STILL THE BEST TO ME!

cashkid18: etimumu stil beta pass empty hen.kudos to them..am currently rocking wit etimumu freebrowsing

Share it

Olugbenger: They started well especially with their various tarrifs evolving variation in affordable data plans on mobile but they failed to effect distinct and important changes regards to latest developments. Even Mtn provides almost same quality of services especially data wise at very affordable fees, recently.
Well my etisalat sim is now very dusty.

are u a learner?
