Use 9201. 8080 and 9200 also work but have restrictions on WAP accounts.

Yeah, I suppose they paid him well. I've seen better ads from Nigerian, especially the ones for Glo which are of a high standard.
Just BTW which is the largest network in Nigeria? Glo or MTN? |

MTN has an uncomfortable lead over Glo

Its uncomfortable because Glo keeps on closing that gap by the day. Glo has beaten Vmobile (which had a 3year start alongside MTN) to 2nd place, and is trailing closely.
I don't have the actual figures for subscribers on both Glo and MTN off-head, but I could post it later.
But statistics show that Glo is the fastest growing network in Nigeria and one of the fastest growing on the continent.

They have been the fastest growing since inception, but that doesn't mean they are the fastest growing network at this point in time!
The fact that AYA, the greatest Glo supporter, could declare war on Glo means that the GPRS unreliability issue might have cost them a lot of potential subscribers!

So I take it MTN does not offer GPRS. You guys need to come visit SA, both networks(Voda &
MTN) have widespread GPRS... Right now I'm in a small town outside of Cape Town and I've got brilliant GPRS reception.

MTN is not GPRS-enabled here o. And Glo GPRS coverage and service can be such a nuisance. The other 2 networks have been launching GPRS since last month, but no-one anyone knows is using it.
Maybe in another couple of months things will be much better. |

@AYA: What's their reason for not having GPRS? Any issues with power supply or are they just being stingy?

Hi guys, my name is Amby, new user just registered today. Point of correction Aya, Vmobile doesn't offer GPRS yet, what they have is a CSD connection that is charged at normal voice call rates which makes it rather expensive, this explains the low patronage. I personally believe that Vmobile is still firmly in 2nd place ahead of glomobile in terms of subscriber base and coverage. |

Why, why do you say so? I have just effectively left econet for glo. Though I still retain the econet number as i have used it since the company launched. |
