Af0nja:
Is it a phone subscription plan or WiFi MIFI
Its 5G router plan.

You pay 30k, airtel give us a 5G router with 2 options of either speed based or data based plan.

The data based plan is about 20k for 240gb for 30 days

The other option is speed based plans:

20mbps for 20k monthly
40mbps for 35k monthly
60mbps for 50k monthly

Na the 20mbps plan i opted for and i've been using it since December 2023 ....

Bretheren, the speed based plan no dey finish ....

Find below the screenshot of the router and also, my usage for February ... check the date and time for the screenshot on my laptop

how does the package run
Go to Airtel office or authorised agent with 30 or 35k and also, carry your nepa bill, means of (drivers license, Intl passport etc)

They will fix up in 30mins with a 5g router and u opt for the speed based plan which is 20k monthly.

The 1st month is free for 30 days. U pay 20k subsequently

JUNE/JULY UPDATE:

The price for the router has been jacked up to about 65 to 75k, depending on your location

If u wan dey sure say e dey work, turn it all the way anticlock wise (but no let the screw/spring fall out) ... your gen go swallow 5 litres in 1 hour...

PhonesRe: Which Samsung Phone Can I Buy For My Wife Between The Budget Of N100k-N150k by bigl: 8:10pm On Jan 29, 2024
wunmi590:
Good day phone lovers.


Please what samsung phone can I buy for my wife as the price suggest..


I currently use Samsung A14, but I will like to get something either higher or different from mine for her.

I wouldn't mind a UK used asmsung phone, as long as it won't give her issue, if not I will get her a new phone..
Bro, jejely buy the a14 for her and pls steer clear of S9 or whatever S -series anyone might be advising: Majority of my friends who use s9 complain of certain issues - they all bought uk used ...

Buying a brand new A14 gives u peace of mind that u bought a brand new phone rather than some used who's history you might not know

By the way, go to slot and check samsung stand and you're likely to buy at a discounted rate!
PhonesRe: Unlock Airtel ZLT X25 Pro 5G Router To Use All Networks by bigl: 6:31pm On Jan 24, 2024
Can u please break down what will change after unlocking?

I'd like to patronise him but i need to know what will not be working again apart from the ussd (which i don't use)

Thanks.

Confidento:
Alright... So I got in touch with OnyeArsenal grin and together we unlocked my Airtel 5G router remotely last night. I didn't have to take it anywhere. The unlock was done over the internet from my computer while I just sat and watched after giving him access. Also, it only took a few minutes.

I recommend his service, and though the "payment before unlock" condition may make some people skeptical, I assure you that he delivers.

You do have to note that there are some caveats to unlocking this router; maybe there's a fix but after the unlock the "USSD" option is now unsupported and doesn't work. But I'm not bothered since with the root login I can get something even better - that is SMS.

You also have to note that the user admin dashboard will no longer be as default, there'll be a few missing options, though you'll still find these options and many more by logging in as the root user.

All in all, I say you should go ahead and have your router unlocked as long as you're not in any contract with AIrtel that prevents you from doing so. It's just a much more lovely and interesting experience when you do.
Jobs/VacanciesRe: Advise Me On This Job Offer, I Am Confused And Sad by bigl: 7:06pm On Jan 16, 2024
You don't need to stress yourself about this matter....

your current job is expiring this month and you have another one but the pay isn't that too fantastic ...

Pls accept this new job jeje while eyeing another hybrid job ... or you prefer to be jobless and without any form of income?

I can bet it with u that with time, you'll find a way to adjust to the cost of the new job....

Half bread is waaaaay better than chinchin!

Except your current job affords you to save and you've saved up like say 2 million naira and can afford to be without job for a while pending when u get another job ....

Joboffer24:
Hello Nairalanders,

So recently I got a job which office is situated on the island of Lagos but I live on the mainland. My current job is also on the island but it is hybrid which makes me convenient for me to do some little errands to earn money to survive.

The problem is that the pay in the offer letter which is between 100 to 110k is not what we discussed during the interview, it is half of the amount I told them. I am about to reject the offer as I can't keep up with it and I am planning to reject it politely.

If I remove daily transport and feeding from it, I will be  less with less than 15k and this is not a 3 square meal routine. It is barely a 2 square meal on a 1k per day. Tfare will take me like 1700 per day and it means I can't save any dime on this money.

My current job expires this month and the pay is the same with this new one but just that it is hybrid, I don't have to go to work everyday as I can work from home and also go to office. It is favourable as I could save some money and also attend to the responsibilities on my neck like house rent, utility bills, and family things, mind you, I am not married and I do not have a girlfriend.

Also I am running an ICAN programme that will consume money and time but the issue is that the money offered by this new job can only cover up for my tfare and feeding...

I am about to reject the offer but I need nairalanders opinion, am I making the right decision?

I am still applying for more role... I work as a finance personnel and I have more than a year experience.

To be honest, my interest would have to secure a position in an auditing firm as a trainee. I have no experience in auditing but I want to build a career in this profession before I finish my ICAN programme but the problem is that I am yet to get the opportunity.

I am a fast learner as in very fast learner,Communicate excellently, pay attention to details and I enjoy multitasking.

Please advise me before I reject this offer
HealthRe: Menstrual Cramps Disturbing Me Badly. Please What Can I Use For It? by bigl: 1:55pm On Jan 07, 2024
Jewessgratitud3:
I suffer severe menstrual cramps and it's really taking a tow on me. Like I no longer look forward to having my menses because of the pain and discomfort that comes with it.

The only thing that stops the cramps is felvin but it makes the flow three times heavier than normal to the point that I'll start feeling dizzy. The last one scared me cos after taking felvin, on the second day I was changing diaper every 5 mins. (Yes I use diaper cos pad no longer holds my flow. ) At a point I stood up and it's as if the whole blood in my system gushed out and I nearly passed out. So I said I wasn't going to use felvin again.

Now, I didn't use felvin this time and the flow is normal but I've been crying from pain since yesterday. It's like labor pain and im tempted to take felvin but when I remember what happened the last time, I'll ditch the idea.

Please what can I use to stop the pain that will not increase the flow? Please help with remedies that work.
Stay away from sugar or sugar based drinks once it's 3 or 5 days to your moi moi showing up ....

Stop taking pain killers ... They do more harm to your body

Copied smiley

"I am a Nigerian student living in Scotland, A Nigerian Christian guy got in touch with me via WhatsApp and asked for a relationship, saying he got my number off a church whatsapp group that I haven't been to for almost a year now. He said he's prayed about me and God has told him we are good to go. He is a student too.
I was single at the time and haven't been with a Christian brother before, so I decided to give it a chance. It's roughly 2 months and I am at the point where I want to quit.

We got talking on the platform and also through calls, about a week into our relationship/talking stage he asked me to come to his place and cook for him so he can have enough food for the coming week. I was surprised because we hadn't even seen each other at that at time. I told him I cannot, he made a big deal out of it and said stuff like it's not a big deal for me to do that as his wife to be. We got over that and arranged to see for the first time, he suggested my house and I said I don't feel comfortable with either of us seeing for the first time in our houses and we finally concluded on a Bugger King outlet which isn't far from my house. This didn't go well with him tho.

We met for the first time and talked, after that he said he wanted to know my place as it isn't far from Burger King. He came to my place and stayed in my bed till around past 10pm, he tried touching and kissing, I told him I wasn't comfortable and he needed to leave because of time. He got annoyed said his intentions was to stay over at my place, he already told his housemate he isn't coming back home and it's so late now to go back. I told him I cannot allow him sleep at my house for the first time we're meeting, I have a small single bed and you intentionally didn't even say you'd sleep over before. He grudgingly left and dropped 3 packs of youghurt and a bag of unfried chips which I later discovered where all expired at the time he dropped them.

I told him about it and he made a mess out of the situation. He attends a pentecostal church and critisizes other churches, he doesn't really believe in adult taking responsibility for their actions as the devil is most likely responsible for everything, we simply have to pray against the devil.
He's asked for sex multiple times in less than 1 month, I stopped talking to him one time for about 2 weeks and we picked up again. He said he doesn't have to penetrate, we can do every other things to satisfy our flesh. He said doing all that with him is the proof of my love for him which I have strongly disagreed. Sex isn't a prove of love, we are adults and can have protected sex with anyone without loving them.
The only single thing I enjoy about him is that we communicate well, he talks a lot too and that makes our communication half argument, he finds fault in any little thing and blows it out of proportion. I have told him I don't have strength for argument in marriage since we won't be arguing over minute things that get him pissed off now.

Both of us have been getting multiple 12 hours night shifts from work and two nights ago, he asked me what he was going to eat when he gets home the following morning, I knew he was up to something. I told him I can't say, we don't live together and I don't know what you currently have at home. I suggested he buys bread on his way back home. He then asked me to cook for him to eat the following morning, I sincerely let him know I have no soup or stew myself. His response changed and he later called me on same subject, citing how I don't care enough about him to be concerned about how he is gonna eat since he's been working few nights now, he compared himself to a married man that always brings food to work at his workplace. Even gave the guy his phone to talk to me, that one too said I should do things in my power to make my man happy.

I tried to make him understand he isn't married and it might be difficult to enjoy what his married frnd is enjoying. Youve never bought me foodstuff, you haven't worked before and sent me 50 pounds or less for groceries, we are both working night shifts and I sort my own food, why are you angry I can't make out time out of my rest period to come cook at your house to stuck your fridge?

I have been in relationship where I cooked, I personally enjoy cooking, but I have never been with a man that feels to entitled to me doing that for him. He says I'm supposed to be the one cooking for him. He also believes in women abroad sharing bills, but he is too traditional to share house chores"

You’ve made a valid point. I’ve never been a fan of the extreme Christianity a lot of people practise in this part of the world. It’s common sense to know you seek help from a hospital when you’re sick. Even the Bible teaches that, but somehow Africans developed their own brand of “faith Christianity”.
Touché!
