This 8k 68gb swift plan, please give more info.

Is it a regular plan or it takes some manipulation?

Think I should move to that, now that Glo plans have been slashed and no longer cost efficient

No manipulation involved... They are promo plans... You can get more info on their website

It was very reliable... Swift doesn't double charge their data... 8K for 68GB

The 16K I'm paying now for 50GB on this unlimited Sub can get you over 100GB of that normal Subscription ✔️

So if you are willing to pay more than 8K you can probably get over 100GB and just flex the daytime data...


Cool. What's the name of the plan? I checked their website now and their 4G doesn't seem to be available in my hood perhaps it doesn't work.

Stanley08 should edit the name of this thread jare. The thread has clearly evolved into something different from its original purpose. Should be given a broader nomenclature.

True ✔️

He should just delete only the "Ntel" in the title... That should suffice

I presently use Ntel, but I'm seeking alternatives and swift ticks it with the speed but the data plan is the issue.

I can't stay all might streaming moves and musics, I use kodi to stream movies and sports during the day and sportify and deezer for music.

Does the 8k for 68GB work well and is it reliable? Was your data charged doubled or normally?


What add one do you use for movies and music on Kodi?

Same thing Stanley08 analyized on first page..
I guess he can't say this same thing again, that's the fact you failed to realize

It's free to walk from here to Europe, But I will rather take flight
Think about that. Peace cheesy

Ntel has gone to shxt.
Need to apply Google DNS 8.8.4.4, 8.8.8.8. For it to work decently.

I'm on swift now. It's not the best in my area. But Spectranet decided to go FULL R.E.T.A.R.D

Exactly what made me stop using it.

Swift has poor coverage in my area but still very fast.

I don't know what you mean by trakt account but placenta is very very reliable and has all the movies in the world besides Nollywood and Kannywood.

What does Neptune rising and incursion stream? What other add-ons do you use ? Sports, news, general channels.

The irony in all of this is, for the same encoding type, quality, and length of content, you use exactly the same amount of data to either stream or download.

What this means is, as far as HD content is concerned, you can't live comfortably on even 100 GB per month (about 3.3 GB/day) if you stream/play, say, HD video/game content for any appreciable number of hours during any period in one day.

In other words, there's no alternative to unlimited data for either serious streaming or heavy downloading during any period of a day.

In our 9ja real world, the key advantage to downloading instead of streaming, is that you're sure you'll get your Video On Demand content completely stored and available for playback. You don't want a situation where you don't have uninterruptible power and a DISCO can disrupt a movie streaming session, for example. In most cases, all the data used up to that interruption is lost, and the session may have to start all over, especially if the particular link is kaput in the meantime. If you're blessed with an uninterruptible power supply system however, this paragraph becomes mute.

For me, I prefer to use any unlimited data plan that I can afford and works for me. If I use an unlimited night plan, I simply automate my VOD downloads (using IDM, say,) and end up not having to sacrifice much of my normal sleep period.

I believe must be VoLTE compatible.

Just call their customer care and I think that their app may work.

They have an app right? Or is it only smile? Lol. Don't know.

Contact customer care

With Trakt account you can synchronize the TV Series in your collection with placenta, Neptune rising or any other add on that supports it. Neptune rising and incursion also stream movies and TV series

As for Sport and news I was going to ask about it from you. The ones I found are not working except for pure sports which is very good. If you know of anyone for news, I'll appreciate it.

Will look up on the trakt account thingy. I use supremacy for sports and it works well and news stuff doesn't work here again. Perhaps I will need to re add it. Is the sport add-on just called pure sports?
