Has Airtel Blocked Non Bb/android Users? by Ksslib(m): 1:13pm On Aug 20, 2014
I had about 700+ mb 2 days ago and didnt download aything save for 2 tracks which collectively dare not exceed 10mb at worst.

This afternoon, i dialed *123*123# only to see a strange pop-up. *141*712*0# also revealed i didnt have any active data plan.

Me using about 700mb+ in less than 3days on an e72 is totally out of the question.

Has airtel blocked non bb users from the monthly 2gig for 1500 or what? The funny thing is i can still browse though i have no money in my account. I dey even owe them sef.

I initially wanted to put the sim inside my samsung to see if it'll recognise the device as android then display it as airtel android mb plan but it uses micro sim and my teeth doesnt have the precision to cut it like those machines do.

Am i the only one experiencing this? Or there's a new code to check data i'm oblivious of?

Its the monthly 2 gig for 1500 i did like i've always been doing.

I have about 557 mb left now.

Why use mtn 250 2 hrs bundle or whatever when u can use etisalat N15 for 5mins unlimited download plan. With 90 naira you can download/browse unlimitedly for 30mins.. 180naira for 1 hr.

Just a suggestion though cos thats what i use for my downloads and its super fast.
