Etisalat Follows Suit ; 1.5GB Data Now Cost N1000 by donhils(op): 6:36pm On May 11, 2016

It started with Glo, then MTN and now Etisalat have joined in the league of those offering 1.5GB data at N1000. Other plans have been reviewed also. 3.5gb data is now N2000. We're now waiting for Airtel to put some icing on the cake of their N1000 data. No dulling.
I think this is a welcome development. Let's hope it only gets better.
However, 5gb data and 8gb data remain ridiculously exorbitant at N6500 and N8000 respectively.

But why the sudden interest in increasing data volume? Something fishy is about to come to the fore.

Do they have speed problems? Thought they have one of the fastest connections.

Glo is always forcing others to do good. Remember the days of per minute billing?

that's funny. shouldn't that data volume increase as the price increase?
for example 2k for 3.5Gb
how is 8k _ 8gb? who worked this maths for them??
following the first arithmetic 4K should give 7gb so 8k should give nothing less than 14gb. this is outrageous.

They will review it later, but they quickly did something to keep themselves in the market.

Don't mind them if you sub 3.5gb for 2k 4times it will give you 14gb.

Looks like they took the battle to MTN only at the lower rung of things.

Meanwhile, na this kind period data resellers go dey reply customer, "yes, oga sir, your majesty!"
