Some Nigerians use the Internet to do businesses like blogs and (Forex) Foreign exchange trades, therefore, they need the Internet often and these sets of Nigerians are expected to spend more money buying data so that they may have uninterrupted Internet access.

So, if you belong to that category of Nigerians, you will have more Internet data need because you can’t surf the Internet without data.

Also, depending on the traffic your blog generates and how much you make from affiliate marketing, you may buy up to 5GB /10GB data so as to have uninterrupted Internet access, update your blog often and give your readers a reason to keep increasing the traffic on your blog.

The table shows alongside the devices they are best used on as applying a particular data plan might work on a wrong device but will not give maximum advantage.

But if you are the type that hardly goes to the Internet as well as have a low income, then choosing lower packages like Airtel Smartphone Internet may just be all you need for a month because Airtel gives you 3GB on that plan which should be enough to carry you all through the month.

Just like other telecom giants, Airtel also gives their customers juicy packages and bonuses, reasonable call rates, and cheaper data packages unlike MTN.

Airtel BlackBerry® Phones plan is tabulated below

Plan Name Validity Data Bundle Price Dial USSD
BB Absolute Monthly 4GB N3000 *485#

Airtel Internet Plans for Heavy Users

Like I pointed out earlier, your choice of Airtel Nigeria data plans should depend on your income, the need to use the Internet and how often you visit the Internet.

If you are the type of subscriber who always likes to go online and stream new videos and live events, Skype, download songs and films, chat, navigate on Facebook, know what’s trending on Twitter, absolute Plan of 4GB may not even be enough to carry you for one month as streaming online and downloading films consume a lot of data. Remember, Android Phones can also be configured to use this subscription pattern. You can call Airtel helpline 24/7 on 111 for more information concerning their services.

Summary

In summary, no telecom company survives in business in Nigeria without innovations and new ideas to win consumer confidence and loyalty, and Airtel Nigeria is no exception.

Airtel Nigeria has worked tremendously in that regard by working round the clock (24/7) to attend to customers’ needs and going ahead to serve them in their local languages – Hausa, Igbo, and Yoruba. I cannot emphatically say that Airtel Nigeria data plans are the best or the worst because there are many competitors in the industry who offer similar or much better packages and are also worth checking out.

The choice of network depends largely on network coverage in one’s locality because with faint or no network coverage, all juicy bonuses and packages telecommunication companies offer customers become useless, so network coverage is key.

Even though “Airtel Nigeria” has been relatively stable since after acquiring Zain, but the constant change of name and acquisition from Econet to Vmobile, from Vmobile to Vodacom, from Vodacom to Celtel, from Celtel to Zain, and from Zain to Airtel just passes the message to customers that the company is very unstable, hence it is not a network of choice amongst younger generations who have followed the continuous change of name of 0802 since its entry into the Nigerian telecomm industry. Despite this, figures annually released by management of Airtel Nigeria show that the company is really growing both in revenue base and spread (reach).
