Confirmed: Airtel BIS data plans no longer zap data and has really been normalized
After
battling with mass exodus of airtel subscribers from the airtel network,
pertaining to the lack of joy on making use of airtel BIS plans to quench
subscribers browsing quests, and as you all know what happened starting from
the month of April when airtel decided to go haywire and zapped subscribers BIS
data mercilessly.
Most
probably, Airtel having seen the sadness on the faces off airtel subscribers
and the negative impact it created to their businesses, they decided earlier
this month to return everything pertaining their BIS data plans back to status
quo before the month of April.
If you are
missing in action here and still don’t understand what transpired on this
airtel BIS data plans between the month of April and this month, you can
refresh your memory with this two posts, April update on airtel BIS browsing on PC, Android and other devices and all airtel BIS data plans has been halved and airtel now zap BIS data.
Airtlel has
introduced back the airtel BIS, so called unlimited 1 + 1 offer which allow
some eligible SIM to get back whooping 4GB of data for N1,500 and for a period
of 2 months. Again all the other BIS plans that the data were halved have also
been returned to normal. For example, the N100 airtel BIS daily plan that was
reduced from 80MB of data to 40MB was returned back to 80MB, and that of the
other weekly, monthly etc. were also back to normal.
But one
thing that I will like to point out here is that with this recent Airtel BIS
plan come-back, some SIMs that were not eligible in the past to receive the 4GB
for N1,500 this time around became eligible, whereas some that were eligible in
the past became ineligible, as airtel computers reshuffled everything without
any clear cut criteria of determining eligibility.

In other
words, do not be surprised to see your former eligible SIM that you receive the
bonus now become ineligible and vice versa.
You can
still refer to this post, on how to know if your airtel SIM is eligible for the 4GB for N1,500 and for 2 months and
more so you can always check here to
see all the working airtel BIS plans that you can subscribed to with their

The main
purpose of this article and as requested by many, is to clarify the issue on
whether airtel BIS plan come-back still zap data at astronomical rate.

After much
current usage, observation and scrutiny, I can confirm to you today that airtel
no longer zap BIS data and everything have indeed been normalized.
For those
that are still skeptical on whether to subscribe or not, you should entertain
no fear again and go ahead to subscribe to any of the available plans provided

to know, that your internets speed on any of the four major network providers
in the country vary a great deal with location.

Hey there Edwin. First of all I must say you are doing a great job with your blog as it is very enlightening. I wad wondering if u av found another way around the MTN night plan 3gb to work during the day since the open VPN thingy no longer functions
ReplyDeleteHi Wale,
DeleteThank you for your warm remarks. I want to tell you that we are working towards that and once it comes up, I will update immediately so you can continue enjoying your MTN night plan in day time
I tried it yesterday.. I didn't watch anything, just checked my mails and and as of now I'm left with 500mb...really??
ReplyDeleteModupe, which of the airtel BIS plan did you go for, was it the 1GB or that of the 2GB? Dear my candid advice to you with the Airtel BIS you have to checked your SIM first to know whether you are eligible for the 4GB plan for N1,500 and if it happened that your SIM is not eligible, that you can only get 2GB for that same amount, then you should add 1k to it and opt for the MTN night plan.
DeleteRemember that the apart from the 3GB for the night, MTN night plan will offer you free additional 1.5GB that you can use any time of the day on any device, so it will be far better to use the MTN night plan in the event your airtel SIM cannot get 4GB. But you have to check first to confirm, and I hope you know how to check?
Yes I did...i'm not eligible....anyways,thank you very much!...do have a fabulous week ahead!
DeleteThank you too for coming over Modupe, do have a pleasant night rest
