As I type this, my 10GBite MTN data bundle is winding down while my bonus 20.80GBite is still intact. Is the bonus not supposed to be debited first before my main bundle Mba ooo, rara, eho they are draining my main account first. I blame no one else but the self centered and greedy lawmakers in the NASS. All they do is collect bribe then sit back and watch the masses fleeced of every penny they've ever worked very hard to get. From PHCN and DSTV to Network Service Providers nothing is closely monitored. Service charges in our banks is a story for another day. Consumers right and Protection is practically non-existent. Shame on the government.


I will topple my data bundle little by little to extend the validity of the bonus data until i exhaust it. And guess what I wont rush it.

Lies.

At home, my laptop, my phone, my wife's phone and another laptop for my children are all connected to a glo modem through a router.

My children laptop is connected to their TV in their room through a HDMI cable and they use it to watch children cartoon on YouTube. I don't even bother to regulate their use of the data on YouTube.

All these for about 20k monthly data subscription. And some months, I get a rollover for unused data as soon as I re-subscribe in the following month.

So I'm a witness, this is a lie.

oga that person is not living, I use Glo and I can tell you Glo does not do double billing for data. What you should do is you should check if someone else is sharing your data with you,cos you may not believe it either a friend or your family member is sharing that data with you.

Oga just cos you aren't affected doesn't mean others should be experiencing what you're experiencing.
Someone said something about MTN deducting from their main balance first instead of bonus data.
Ive experienced such before and hopefully I won't again. The double billing might sound like a tall tales but it happens, same way MTN deducts from my main data and night plan anytime I do a night plan, with the remants of the night plan bundle left untouched in most cases.

I have noticed that the Glo's #100 for 1Gigabytes midnight bundle is fraudulent, each time, i subscribe to it, it becomes depleted after downloading a movie of almost 500megabyte, This is because, each Megabyte is counted as two megabyte by the Glo system so the 1 Gigabytes data allowance is actually about 500megabyte in size. I'm not asking anybody to believe me but they should do the subscription themselves and track their data usage. Glo is defrauding Nigerians and deserves to be caught and dealt with while the internet subscribers compensated.

I use this plan and in all honesty they do not steal your data, not at all.If glo 4g is good in your area port to glo you will enjoy it. The 100 for 1 gig plan runs from 12 am to 5 am everyday for five days and I dont think any other network has a better plan. Glo has tried abeg.

maybe you have some automatic updates running in the background you don’t know of. As for me I download 3 movies of 300mb before I run out of the night plan

Anyone who uses glo will tell you, you get what you buy. They don't zap data. The only downside is their network coverage. Although their network is very strong where I live.

The only reason, you don't get what you buy is if someone is sharing your data with you.

Oga download glo cafe, login and check your share data list. After that check very well if apps updated and also the settings of your browser. If images are set to the highest quality, it will consume more data. Lastly check your phones data usage in settings for the period of the subscription to see the actual amount data you used.

We don't get value for money in Nigeria anymore and it's sickening... yet we have a government agency that ought to check the excesses of these service providers.

Using Glo, I haven't had to buy extra airtime for calls as my recharge for data covers call bonus which runs into thousands of call units.

6k data budget gives me 27gig which covers my needs for a month and I practically live on YouTube.
Glo is the best for now
