hancock:
it seems ntel has quietly introduced new data packages with outrageous prices. that would explain why the old data plans are being throttled
right left and center.
Sad

oyb:
reducing speed from 10mb/s to 1mb/s is throttling

reducing it from 1.4mb/s to 60kb/s is manage us until a better isp comes along

Heshei:
I feel 3G/Per day = 90GB/Month even at N15k is just too cheap sincerely.

So rubbish Emptyhen give you 1.5GB at 1k why didn't you stick to their so called fiber lies.

I just feel this is just a simple case of understanding what is on ground and fitting in.

They have a package that's meant for heavy user now, so it would be absurd to be consuming close to 10GB daily and not subscribed to the right bundle plan.


ntel is the most honest to have come out clean right from start... The issue most people forgot they didnt implement it on time.

We hate on people who tell us the truth of course... So keep ranting all you like. I have had my share of ntels ups and down too.

I know they are growing and am willing to grow with them... I will rather even encourage them for helping us destroying the data pricing pyramid.

Long Live ntel.... Long Live Nigeria

I TOTALLY disagree. There is no such Terms and Conditions from NTEL. The T&C page is right there on their website for everyone to read, there is no mention of such. During the testing period they put it in, for about a week and immediately people complained and they took it out. I remember contacting them that time to confirm and they told me categorically that clause has been removed and there is no cap or throttling whatsoever.

Even before downloading 10mb in a day, I get ridiculously slow speeds so clearly it is not a matter of daily cap, if it is, they would have said so, in response to the countless complaints on twitter. I have been downloading Prison Break S05E01 for 2 days now. Imagine.
The whole point of using NTEL is, No Cap, No Throttling, not thing else, customers know it and the company knows it

That ntel is bad in your location does not mean ntel is bad everywhere. .

Even the old packages, they have increased the prices. The N1000 plan is now N1500, N3000 plan is now N3750, while the 10k monthly is now N12,500. God forbid say make I pay these prices with the current situation.

I refused to turn off or restart my mifi since yesterday night and till now I am still getting 1.2MB/s.
Have they resolved their issue or its because I didnt restart.

Unlimited Plans: If you subscribe to an ntel price plan, service or feature that is described as unlimited, you should be aware that such unlimited plans remain subject to ntel’s Fair Use Policy. If your usage of our unlimited plans is greater than a predefined amount during any 24-hour period (measured from midnight each day), then ntel may at its sole discretion reduce the priority of that user’s mobile broadband data service relative to other users, until midnight of that day.

Other than as mentioned above, with respect to peer-to-peer traffic, ntel’s network management practices are agnostic to the content that traverses its network and to the websites that provide that content. Notwithstanding the foregoing, ntel may block outright or reduce the priority of traffic that violates its Fair Use Policy.

By extension, Ntel are guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation.why are they spamming customers in boxes with stories of downloading 45gb files if it is their policy to throttle downloads to unusable pre 3g speeds after 3gb?

If I wanted to download COD today, it would probably take 3 to 4 days because of their throttling.

OBAGADAFFI:
NTEL wasn't straight forward from the beginning.

Example, Smile unlimited data ends at 60gb after which they throttle the speed.

But NTEL won't tell you the amount of data usage before their speed throttling start

Dam5reey:
Lol, your mifi has switched back to band 3....
You get 2 Mbps on band 8

oyb:
very weird plan - they thottle you during the day, then its happy hour from 12am till you restart your modem.

oyb:
in summary, NTEL's unlimited plan gives you a maximum download speed of 1.2mb/s, which is throttled to an unreliable flaky 60kb/s once you pass an undefined threshold.

if you are able to maintain your connection [never turn off your modem, and there is no signal loss] you can maintain your 1.2mb/s indefinitely.

so na to get dedicated inverter of extended car battery for my modem be that .

otokx:
They have increased their unlimited plan to 12500 per month, still testing the network.

Alsayer:
Scumbag Ntel. Throttles speed. Increases the price or all their data plans.
