Glo Quietly Upgrades Data Bundles: More GB For Same Price + Improved Network Experience

Fellow Nairalanders,

I just noticed that Glo has quietly upgraded many of its data plans, giving subscribers more data for the same amount of money. This comes at a time when many Nigerians are looking for the best value for their internet spending.

According to recent reports and updates from Glo, several of their popular data bundles now come with higher data volumes at no additional cost to customers.

Interestingly, many users have also been reporting noticeable improvements in Glo's internet performance in several parts of the country. The company had earlier indicated that investments were being made to improve network quality and customer experience.

₦2,000 plan now gives 6.25GB

₦3,000 plan now gives 10.5GB

₦10,000 plan now gives 42GB

all without increasing the subscription cost.

My Observation
For years, many Nigerians loved Glo because of the large volume of data they offered. The major complaint was usually network speed and consistency.

Now it appears Glo is trying to tackle both issues at the same time:

✅ More data value for subscribers
✅ Network upgrades in several locations
✅ Night data bonuses on many plans
✅ Better value compared to some competing offers

If the speed improvements continue nationwide, Glo may become one of the most attractive options for heavy data users, streamers, remote workers, students and small businesses.

What has been your experience recently with Glo internet?

Has the speed improved in your area?

Which of these new bundles offers the best value?

Would you consider porting back to Glo because of these changes?

I prefer their promo for data subscription- 5k for 32g. It doesn't come all the time.

InternetWebM082:
How?

edogu:
Once in a while they used to advertise cheaper data bundle. For instance, you may be browsing the next thing they will send a message asking you to buy like 32g worth of data for 5k or 12g worth of data for 3k.

Ex0rrcist:
If you do that 5k own once, they won’t take it away. I did it consecutively for the first 5months of this a year, stopped using the sim and I still have them offfer.

They should upgrade their network. Glo network is bad and unreliable in most parts of the country.
