Glo will give you 1 billion gig for 100 naira of data but you no go use 1MB inside before you troway the SIM card.
Which glo gives 1billion gb for 100 naira?
Glo data is the smallest, mtn is far more generous with data.

Notice that the two Nigerian services are at the bottom.


Nigerians are notorious for poor customer service, lack of accountability and corruption. That's why nothing works in the country

Globacom — 9.83%
🔵9mobile — 1.03%

This is sad. Let someone remind me what happened 10 years ago in nigeria's economic or political landscape 🤔

Yep, APC came 🤗
Shame catch me on your behalf. You don't need to put politics in everything. Just read through the first page and weep at your unclothedness.

Upon they have shitty network, they still went ahead to employ very incompetent and saucy customer service agents.

If they lose their jobs now because of their market share loss, body go tell them.

Very annoying organisation

COMRADES, I haven't seen the figures, what I figured out is the percentage. Statissense with their usual wacky reports/statistics, are you guys trying to tell us that Glo growing faster or better than MTN?

If not for Glo a lot of people wouldn't have been able to purchase a sim card. There problem is poor service.
I bought my MTN line 2005 and glo 2006. For 19 years now, you can't make calls with glo any day, anytime and expect to hear the other person. Their browsing network is also terrible almost everywhere.

What kill glo is that they are yet to move to 4G.

They don't have the infrastructure to implement 4.5g network. Glo is operating 2g and 3g in most cities.

For many years I have not use 1% of my data each time I subscribed to glo.

It use to be very good like 6 years ago.

Their infrastructure has decay and lagging behind.

Mtn is th best.

What's happening to glo is the same thing with Nigeria banks. They needs foreign hands maybe from China

Telecom service sector has a very stiff competition for the share of the market.
Glo succeed in being known, but there service is a no.
It may or may not entirely be their fault.
Some Glo staff may be collecting bigger salaries from MTN while working at Glo.

Mine has been working PERFECTLY after roaming it on the MTN network. Search for a post on Nairaland about 9mobile been granted permission to roam on MTN. This was about a week or 2 weeks ago. Do what the poster says and ur 9mobile will be back
Thank you.

Airtel has stable network?
Lumarstone:
Naturally, Nigerians prefer MTN network. Many Nigerians including myself have more than one MTN lines, both old and new generation lines. The old generation lines are those lines that started with 0803 & 0806 while they new generational lines are those that started with 0810, 0814, 0707, 0941 etc.

The problem with MTN is that in some areas, their network use not to be stable when compared with Airtel.

Re: See How Many Subscribers Glo Has Lost In 10 Years by Agboogashi: 7:39am On Jul 26, 2025
Glo is the worst network provider in Nigeria. Their data bundles are nothing compared to those of other providers, their services, when you even bother to subscribe, is unstable cum epileptic and they keep boring subscribers with useless unsolicited adverts.
Re: See How Many Subscribers Glo Has Lost In 10 Years by CorrectionFLuid: 7:53am On Jul 26, 2025
Efuaye:
Glo makes more money than MTN and Airtel because they are a national carriers like Nitel of those days.
I think they have fiber and submarine cables
They have all these, and yet they can't use it to improve their own network? Doesn't sound logical.

The logical answer is that GLO is a money laundering outfit. Which is why they spend so much in adverts and celebs than in infrastructure and services.
Re: See How Many Subscribers Glo Has Lost In 10 Years by Bahamas95(m): 8:00am On Jul 26, 2025
Even though they all got their different issues MTN still remains the best network in Nigeria.


Airtel got fast network but the problem with them is that they use straw to suck data, their data don't last at all compared to MTN.......As for GLO even if you give me a GLO Sim loaded with data I won't accept it.



9Mobile's case is a story for another day, God bless the person who posted that thread some days back. I have switched over to MTN.

They deserve it
They have the worst network ever in Nigeria

IF YOU WANT TO KNOW HOW USELESS GLO IS, TRY USING IT TO GET OTP FROM ANY APP, IT'LL NEVER COME TILL YOU'RE FRUSTRATED.


If you're lucky it came, it'll definitely come when it is late and expired.
But I have used my Glo line for over 15 years with peace and no complain whatsoever. Sometimes it sounds strange to me when people complain about Glo network. Or am I simply one of the lucky ones?

Glo despite indigenous company that supposed be our own priority.
They are the most useless network of Nigeria follow by Etisalat.
Airtel still managing but MTN gbam.
Indeed. I don't trust Glo. 9mobile dey off their network for days without remorse.
Re: See How Many Subscribers Glo Has Lost In 10 Years by TemmyT002(m): 8:09am On Jul 26, 2025
It is indigenous.
Most indigenous companies in Nigeria have suffered since APC parasite came in.
Re: See How Many Subscribers Glo Has Lost In 10 Years by occfx: 8:09am On Jul 26, 2025
They have the best data service when it's working... But there service works 30% of a month.

I enjoy smooth streaming with Glo when the network is good but when it enters epilepsy mode, I switch back to MTN.

This is not correct
I use my glo line for OTP and it works
Maybe your line has its issues

My first SIM was Econet in 2003 , but when Vodacom took over they sold SIM cards for 1k and I bought five note SIM cards and that was in 2004 . So yeah Vodacom was the first to crash the cost of SIM cards not Globacom .
