@AYA do you guys have credit rating agencies in Naija? In SA you can't enter into a contract if you've been "blacklisted" by a rating agency for failure to pay your debts.

My name is Seun Osewa, I'm on Glo but planning on moving to M-TEL/Vmobile (I don't like to spend money ni o!). My phone is a Samsung, ouch, but I'm here because other Nigerians are here.
Posted by OluYom
@brix25: Never heard of a credit rating agency here!
@angel: Don't wait for no bonanza. Ijebu!
@mamba: Contract bills are paid at any branch of Devcom, and/or ETB
@seun: Welcome here, and about time too. E be like say you too be Ijebu proper!
Posted by Angelgirl
@Seun, welcome! dont mind AYA, im own Ijebu pass, infact na ijebu-igbo,
Posted by mamba
@seun welcome to proudly nigerian
since you dont like to spend money, i suggest you go for Mtel cos it's got the cheapest tarrif so far plus added bonus of GPRS by march.
glo gprs seems to be off for 2 days now!
anyone notice this or is it only me?
Posted by OluYom
@mamba: Yes oh. Glo GPRS has been on strike!
Posted by OluYom
Well, I am at Big Treat, Omole, and GPRS is workinq here. Is it back generally?
Will check soon as we get home.
Posted by mamba
gprs is off here at omole phase 2 and working in some other places.
that means the problem is restricted to Berger/Ojodu areas only.
I've almost finished my 35 free sms from glo, this is really cool, i'll make sure all my friends change to glo so that i can take full advantage of this.
I LOVE FREE STUFFS!!!
I guess it goes the same for everyone on this thread

Posted by OluYom
@mamba: Why do you want to sell those, especially a good one like the S55? Which phone do you use at the moment? I am posting this from Omole phase 2 where GPRS is working. Still not working at my end
Posted by mamba
AYA, i just called glo and the gprs started working 2mins after reporting. As u can see from my post, it's from a k700i which is what i'm using now. My brother brother exchanged his k7 for my p8 which was acting up. I love this k700 and just want a second mobile that's symbian. I love the siemens a lot but cant keep it while i now have the k700. I just wanna sell the 2 phones and get a p8, maybe urs;-).
Posted by OluYom
@mamba: Yes, a k700i! I called Glo yesterday and this morning too. Glad its all over.
Posted by mamba
Yeah! Thank God it's all over. This k700 is a very lovely phone, the only prob is the battery life which is very poor despite the online upgrading of its firmware which i've done already. The only issues with it are poor battery, lack of mmc & some physical design errors.
Posted by OluYom
@mamba: I'm not really crazy about any of the new SEs. None of them have caught my fancy. But I guess tastes differ
Posted by Rhino8
@aya i agree. Got k7 but it has its short comings. Like memory stick....
Posted by mamba
Rhino have u noticed that the k700 can cause sore ears when using for making calls. The corner where the speaker is located is just too sharp when placed on ur ears. This is really annoying but thank God there's a speakerphone which works well.
Posted by Rhino8
@mamba i usually use my bluetooth headset coz i make and recieve at least 3hours worth of calls a day. Hav a 35minute call today and ya, my ear still hurts. Maybe they will work something out, putting the speaker that high gives them more space for a screen tho.
Posted by mamba
Rhino, I know the speaker was placed high to create room for screen
But at least the tip of the phone should have been curved and not soooo sharp, it's really hurting my ear, i'm gonna have to get a bluetooth handsfree or risk my ear getting damaged by SE.
Posted by Rhino8
I understood what ya said, and i agree. It really does hurt.
Posted by seunosewa
One of my precious posts (I think I complained about not getting the 35 free Glo-to-glo SMS messages) seems to have gotten lost. Anyway, I am happy to report I got them now. The only pity is that when validity period expires you can't use it.
Posted by coolapostle
20 minutes ago, my phone fell off my pocket as I was riding my bike. Before I could park and fetch it, 2 cars had ran over it! I am very sad. I loved that phone. To fix am na money. To get another one na money! Kai! O piti-piti-piti!

@coola: I am sorry to hear about your phone. It must feel terrible. That's the T610; ko?
Posted by mamba
@coola, sorry about ur phone ooo!
that's really sad. Anyway I guess you'll now move from t610 to p910i afterall
lol!
anyways, sorry sha!
I hope you could gather ur SIM from the wreckage...
Posted by Areafada
@Coola sorry for the loss of ur 2nd wife, if u r married & if not, Sorry 4 lossin ur love of ur life. Cause dt the way i see my fone, It my Organiser, friend, P.Assistance, reminder, finally she wont talk back 2 u, when u shout on her. unlike my WIF if u put E at d end of that word na u sabi!!!!!!! @ coola accept my simpathy. why don't u try a Nokia I'm sure u'll never go/return back to ur old ways (SE).
Posted by mamba
@area, are you suggesting that coola should go for nokia?
well, i think he should go for SE cos he's already used to it (t610)
k700i, S700i or P910i
Posted by Rhino8
Nokia is a bad way to waste perfectly gud money. I swiched to se frm nok, and nw i wont go bck.
Posted by seunosewa
Coolapostle, that must be really painful. I'm glad your SIM is intact.
There's this saying that when the palace of a king is burnt down it is only an oportunity for him to build a bigger, better one one.
Hope this happens!
Posted by OluYom
@areafada: Let's not overflog this issue. FACT: Besides the communicator series, there is very little value for money you can get from MOST (not all) Nokias. If coola can find an exceptional Nokia, fine. If not, he will be better off with another brand (not necessarily SE though).
Posted by mamba
Well, i think it's time for me to market my products, afterall there's someone i know is gonna have to buy a new phone now, (SORRY ONCE AGAIN COOLA) Well, i've got sonyericsson z200 & sagem myX5 for sale. Contact me if u need any.

1 i have k700 to compare, but thats wrong, it needs to b compared to p910 since its a comunicator.
I had NOKIA 9110, 9210, 5110, 3310, 6210, 6310i, 6110, 7250i, 3200, 3660, and 6600 and SE T300, Z600, AND P800 AND at the mo a K700

@ Coola; sorry about ur phone, everyone is now suggesting that u upgrade, what is the need for that, afterall, it might get stolen or crushed again, i will suggest u go for one of mamba's phones.
@Mamba; didn't know u sold phones, could have saved me some hassles last week.
Posted by Angelgirl
@ Everyone; How long does it take for glo to activate wap, after the message to '927' ?
Posted by OluYom
@areafada: Point of correction. You cannot begin to compare two phones on two different platforms.
And you cannot use one single product to evaluate a brand.
There is no arguing the fact that the 9500 is the best in its class at the moment, but to interprete that to mean that Nokia phones are generally "better" than SE would be a mistake.
The word "better" is also quite subjective.
My stand is that SE generally (not always)gives you better value for your money than Nokia. And coming from someone who has used and tested hundreds of GSM phones...
Posted by coolapostle
Hi all... thanks for the love. I have sent it to a repair guy. He says it will cost me 8.5 to 9k! I get a new casing and a fixed screen. The phone still works in its battered shape. @Angel U better call 121!
Posted by OluYom
where are those niteshift guys? gnite everyone!
Posted by OluYom
Wake up everyone!
Posted by mamba
Well, i'm not a phone seller but just wanna dispose some of the phones i've used in the past cos they're alrady piling up. Area, i have a k700 and p800 so let's start the comparison.
Posted by mamba
Angel, subscribing to glo gprs might take some time before they provision ur sim for wap. it also depends on the brand of phone you're using, if it's sagem as i suppose, then you might have to input the settings manually cos i dont think there's OTA settings for sagem on glo yet but you have to call 121 and inform them that you wanna subscribe before they can provision ur sim.
