PLEASE HELP ME OUT O COS I THOUGHT IT IS UNLIMITED

Welcome to airtel, your onestop communications and data partner. Sir, how can we help you?

Am naw afraid of downloading,cos of the 75 percent tin.Even music self.Am tired O

They are telling you that your limit is almost reached after which you won't be able to browse again.

when streaming you are billed higher cos it goes direct from ur line to the internet directly it does not pass through the bb server(so no compression)

Airtel charges 4 times in their 4gb for N1,500 let say you downloaded a file of 100mb when you have 4000mb, check your balance and you will see like 3560mb left. That is what I'm using and I know what I'm saying.

I cannot download anymore,only surf d net,It's not funny o

Sorry, had d same experience in 2012, mine under was 4days. There's nothing like unlimited in Airtel....

Dude jez dail *123*9# to check ur data!!

i repeat airtel, data & unlimited are three word you really dont want to see togather. When unlimited is mention with airtel its a red flag.

Thanks bro,I av dail *123*9# and it show me dat my data remains 675 mb,Imagine dis airtel unlimited self.

They're throttling their data. They're nothing short of thieves and modern day scammers. They did the same nonsense to me even though I'm on their android plan. The customer care operatives respond like programmed robots and tend to be very cold and rude, even terminating calls attimes. Bastards.

OP kpele O. That has been the ways of Airtel and bandwidth deduction 4 almost a year now. And to think that when i said that their data deduction rate on bb devices is exactly the same as non bb devices some Airtel apologists never believed.
