This is a warning to those planning to sacrifice their sleep for the night plan.

I have done the #50 (1.5Gb) three times now and have been scammed three times.!!! The first time I did it, my money was deducted and I received the message that I have been given 1.5Gb but it didn't connect. I called customer care and they were telling me stories

I did it again yesterday (23rd) and i got some funny speed readings. Imagine download speed at (2G) while upload speed was at (3G). so I couldn't use it .

I know this is a deliberate attempt from them because ideally, download speed is normally far higher than upload speed since subscribers do more of downloading. Even opening a Web-page requires downloading at the subscriber's end.
Check the picture below for the average speed reading i got.

For the third time, i did it again this morning(24th) this time around the speed was okay but to my greatest surprise i didn't use upto 300Mb when it stopped connecting.

See screenshots below

Airtel has always been a big scam for me. Even when I used to subscribe their android plain. I'll get say 1G but end up using 200mb

Bros check what the problem is in your ends.

I did all my app updates and enough downloads (400+mb files x3, countless 100+mb files/videos) this morning. I would have subscribed again but I needed to wake up early so I went to sleep.

It is working perfectly.

Sorry, I feel your pain really. But the last time I did it, everything was perfect.

I'm not saying Airtel are not scams, they are! this year, I have lost close to N600 credit to Airtel with all the illegal deduction of my airtime over some useless Value Added service I didn't subscribe to.
I'm still looking for a way to get back at them.

That was how they scammed few days back. I subscribed for the 1.5gb @50. Few seconds later, they started taking me that annoying page telling me that my current data balance is zero, to continue using the Internet, I should buy data bundle from airtel




Airtel and scam....

the V.A.S thing, I thought it was only me o... I use to cry then cos of the 10 deduction until they finish 300 from my phone. Worst was that the system don't recognize any deduction

lol.. you are not the only one bro.

I've stopped recharging on the line. I only recharge when I want to subscribe, then I immediately transfer the rest to a family member or just anyone.

Imagine, I have also been scammed several times by airtel before.
I still respect GLO, MTN, and ETISALAT when it comes to honesty/sincerity of allocated data/data consumption rate. i have never been scammed by them before.

Is working fine 4 me ooooo

same problem here. I started getting 2g speed after I subscribed but around 5am the speed suddenly improved from 20-30kBps to 400kBps-1.5mBps.
