Is Airtel BIS data plan of N1,500 for 2GB back, and how long does it now last?

It might surprise you that maybe after battling with massive losses and massive porting of ever craving internet users from Airtel network to other networks in search of more affordable and long lasting internet data bundle packages that can be used on any devices, Airtel decided to change their mind to revert from the new to the old.

Long before now, you all know that airtel BIS unlimited data plans, offer 2GB of BIS data bundles that can be used to surf the internet on any devices without any tweaking.

But by the beginning of the month of April 2014, airtel felt they were becoming over generous having forgotten that customer satisfaction is the first thing for every thriving business and they decided to do the unthinkable; not only that they slashed all airtel BIS data plans by almost half, they went ahead to be gulping data like a tasty horse and a tasty camel.

To the extent that 1 month plan of N1,500 which was reduced from 2GB to 1.5GB can no longer last for 1 week even under light and minor browsing.

A lot of folks were not happy with that move by airtel, since they have used airtel as their last bus stop for affordable internet data plans over the years. And as you all know by now that it seems that in this era, a man without internet access is almost like committing sin against the Almighty.

That single act by airtel got most of their loyal subscribers over the years so infuriated and that they had no other option than to port in quantum from airtel to other networks.

In fact the extent of damage was that so many people even now prefer to keep vigil with MTN night data plan than to use airtel BIS data plans on their devices…indeed it was a massive porting!

How long does the 2GB now last? Or in other words, do Airtel still zap BIS data bundle after the reversal?

The answer to the above question is Yes, it is true that airtel has reverted the airtel BIS data plan of N1,500 from 1.5GB back to 2GB, but airtel still zaps BIS data bundles like water poured into a basket. And hence we can deduce that the zapping of BIS data Status quo remains unchanged this very moment with only figure update by Airtel.
