Airtel Blackberry Subscription increased to 3GB per month

Airtel Nigeria is the most kind network being the network which  has the cheapest data bundle plans in the country with reasonable data allocation bundle from Blackberry to Android to PC which is quite lucrative compared to other network providers. Late last year, Airtel discontinued their 1+1 bundle offer that allows you get 4GB for N2, 000 and 9GB for N3, 500, Most Airtel subscribers felt they were dreaming and later got heartbroken when they woke up and still confirmed the 1+1 offer is gone and maybe forever.  , Due to this, Airtel has lost its loyal subscribers to Glo in the Glo overload triple data. Glo made a great comeback in terms of affordable data plans by introducing the Glo overload package that not only enables you get 200% on recharge made but also triple data when you purchase any data plan more than N2, 000. With Glo overload triple data you get: N2, 000 for 2.5GB Data N3, 000 for 4.5GB Data and many others.

I received a text message from Airtel  on the 15th stating the monthly blackberry complete plan now becomes 3GB for N1, 400 by dialing *431# but a clause was emphasized “Useable on Blackberry devices ONLY ”.

Now, What I can deduce from this is Airtel realized their mistake and decided to increase blackberry complete data allocation from 1GB to 3GB for the same amount N1, 400. Just to compensate for ending the 1+1 offer.

We’ll definitely find a way to make this work on other devices such as Iphones, Androids and PCs soon.

Steps to Subscribe for the 3GB for N1, 400

1. Simply recharge N1, 400 on your Airtel line
2. Dial *431# to subscribe
3. It’s valid for 30 days

I have a feeling that Airtel is busy cooking up a data plan bundle that would so surprising to its loyal subscribers this new year, so let’s watch out for their new episode of the season and  I just hope they’re going to do it quick.
