Lol. I load my airtime with *555* and not *126....

With that you get 5 times the amount you recharge for Airtel 2 Airtel calls. And you get bonus data depending on the amount you are recharging with.

So to get 1G, you need to load 1k.. I think 100 recharge fetches you 50MB... and so on...

Firstly, if you clicked on this topic with the ''oh! They are at it again'' thought, just relax. Because this time, Airtel has earned a plus point - at least in my humble opinion.

Here is the story...

I used to subscribe for the Airtel plan of 1.5k that has 3.5GB (*435#). It's actually a BB plan but it works well on my windows Tablet.

However, you know that 'Nigerian spirit' of always looking out for the best deal? It took over me... .

I saw on a forum last week, an Airtel plan that hands out the same 3.5G but with 1k instead of 1.5k and a different code.

So, a couple of days back, I ran out of data. I quickly recharged my line and dialled the code (*431#). Normally, I get free data from Airtel for recharging (this time it was 1G 4 loading 1k).

Things went smoothly and the world was a fine place...

However, I woke up this morning and couldn't load any page on my different browsers. I quickly dialled the code to check my data, and it was there intact - the 3.5G, that is.

After several futile attempts to connect to the internet, it dawned on me that this plan wasn't going to work on my device.

Chai! See gobe.... For this harsh weather?

i decided to call their call center (just say make I try). I explained to the customer agent, and he told me the plan worked on only BB phones.

He told me however, that the airtime can be reversed to my account and the data taken back.

I gave my consent (shaperly). And I was promised a refund within 12 hrs.

Lo and behold, they fulfilled their promise some 8 hrs later.

End of story.

I just feel we should give kudos to these guys when they act right, much as we go hard on them when they goof!

Kudos to the Airtel customer care center. Very professional guys and ladies. Unlike the ''grandfathers'' of Telecommunication biz in Nigeria whose call agents mis-yarn terribly, you'd think they were hired to act as clowns.

Thank God for a forum like this. We can now air our views and tell these companies how we feel about their services. They actually read them!

P.S. It's a big deal to me because if it were to be some other networks we all know of, I for sweat blood today.

P.P.S. Airtel try to go slow on your zapping rate sha . That's one area where I see you guys messing up.

Thank you for reading. #GoodEvening

Is "being real" the reason he was voted into office?

He was voted in to project his state forward, not "being real" by buying ponmo, cutting fish in markets and hanging out with paraga sellers.

Well, like minds will support him.
