New Airtel Introduces Unlimited Time Based Data Plan


Nigeria's smartphone network, Airtel, recently introduced new time based data plan that works with all devices. Time based plans allow you to browse unlimitedly for a specific period of time for a particular amount of money. This is similar to MTN's own timed plan, although data throttling starts after 150Mb.

The plans are:
5mins for N15
10mins for N30
30mins for N90
60mins for N180

To Subscribe: Dial *439# and follow the prompt.

The prices seems quite affordable but given the track record of Airtel, there might be some hidden data cap or something similar. Nonetheless this is a good initiative by Airtel, we wait for Etisalat and GLO to introduce their own time based data plan, so the competition can bring in lower prices for we the consumers.

Here are other cheaper data plans you might want to check out:
GLO 4.5Gb for N2,500
GLO 3Gb for N1,000 BIS Plan (You have to tweak your imei)
Etisalat 2Gb for N2,000
Airtel 2Gb for N2,000
MTN 4.5Gb for N2,500

So, What do you think? Will you rock this new plan?
