Airtel Freebasics For Nairaland Is Becoming Practically Useless. by juicydiceyjoe(m): 9:27am On Sep 28, 2016
I don't know if it has something to do with Airtel or Facebook but I suspect it's got to be Airtel as they are fond of bringing up something good and then slowly start destroying it as they are currently doing with their night plan.

Now with Nairaland freebasics, first we could not login and now we cannot see images. This version of Nairaland is just useless...

Someone should pls bring their attention to this..is anyone else experiencing this?

It's true, but that of the image is ridiculous, the last time I used it, I was wondering why images were not displaying, I didn't know they have decided to take it down too.

But it's not the same for BBC or other supported sites apart from Facebook. It seems they have noticed that a lot of people are using it to gain free access to login and comment on Nairaland, which is bad for their business. Hence they denied login access first.

Now images are no-longer accessible very soon maybe they will remove Nairaland completely but I think they have done their worse and that should reduce routed traffic from freebasics to Nairaland and force people to subscribe for normal data plans to get full access.

*modified*
@ juicydiceyjoe, There is no need to call their attention to it they are aware of it, and did it intentionally, to force or maybe i should say encourage customers to purchase data, since they have discovered alot of traffic is being routed from freebasics to Nairaland as i have explained earlier.

Like seriously ... I was amazed when I opened nl .. It didn't bring up any pictures .. Then I just pushed the blame to nl or Airtel server being bad.. But now I know the reasons
