Please would anybody know how to migrate to the new Glo packages?I checked their website and there's just one word for it:appalling! Funny how they'll release packages without the means to activate them.Reminds me of MTN of old:preemptive announcements when services are not really ready for launch.Which of the "c"enforcers should I report to:NCC or EFCC?!

I guess it was a panic response from glo because MTN stunned them all when they least expected. That's what they call strategy.. The industry is now characterized by unified licenses flying around cheaply with intense competition from Fixed wireless operators, low switching cost of SIM cards and subscribers that don't mind having all four SIMS.
I'm still expecting a substantial drop in prices though.. |

@Mamba:Glo must really be reeling for them to be stampeded like that.But it was a dose of their own medicine(lovely medicine from subscriber perspective!)they've been crashing prices at will!But this response!It makes them look stupid and unimaginative.Ha,glo,my glo.Why now?!
@all :Would anyone know where one can pick an original Nokia N93 at reasonable price.Saw it somewhere at 83k

@amby: It funny that though GPRS takes up so much bandwdth, the gsm co's dont mind giving that up for free for months on end while they have only recently decided to budge on call prices.
@all: Is this MTN free call thing something you have to register or is it automatic? |

@Abu I just got back from the Plateau and MTN is doing a lot of damage with their adverts. I think they are on 100 adverts per day! Talk about heavy-rotation. Glo response has been slow and weak.
To switch you have to send a text with 700-730 to 131... depending on the plan you want. I went for the XtraCool (for "students" says MTN) ... you get:
-N5 for SMS
-30% less for 3 Friends and Family MTN numbers
-calls are cheaper 43/33 kobo for peak/off-peak (I think)
-and 0.0 calls between 12:30am and 4:30am (IF YOU HAVE N100 LEFT IN YOUR ACCOUNT)
I am yet to try the wee-hours calls and even to activate the Friends and Family numbers.... but I think it isthe best deal of all the packages.

@brym:Thanks,but it's a little pricey yet.
@all:MTNs extra cool is hip.Spend upwards of two hours daily digging up my old contacts.But they have challenges of congestion.sometimes one can't make a second call after the first but the deal remains cool.Plus one gets 10mms free! |
