No argument the Glo data plan is not enjoyable. Especially in some rural areas, it is very slow and dumb. But what can you do when it is "the grand master of data", the only network that gives you 4GB of data for just N1000? — "All that glitters is not gold" right? — Switching is just out of the question because it's like jumping out from a frying pan into a fire.

But what if I tell you that there are certain tricks and precautions to take for you to enjoy the Glo data? You can find all the answers to this question in the remaining sections of this post.

Understand How The Access Point (APN) Connect

Understanding how your phone Access Point Names (APN) connect can boost your internet connection. The default APN is gloflat — but if you consider interchanging it to either glowap or glosecure, there's a chance that the network will boost

How to change your APN

If you're using Android, go to Settings—Network—Access Points, touch the icon to add a new APN. Input these setup;

Name: Glo
APN: glosecure or glowap
Username: (you can leave this blank) or input web or gprs
Password: (you can leave this blank) or input web or gprs

The same thing goes to iPhone users, go to Settings—Cellular—Cellular Data Options—Cellular Data Networks and input the above setup.

Control How You Use Your Data

Another predicament is how your data got sucked up quickly not as expected. If you're experiencing such problem, there are either one of two things at work.

There's an app running in the background consuming your data
Someone is sharing your data

How to monitor your phone data consumption

If you're using android phone, you should be familiar with Data Usage feature. Which you can find in the Settings of your phone. And if you're an iPhone user you should also be familiar with Cellular Data Usage. Which is also found in the Settings. These two feature are powerful, handy and accurate. You can use either of them to monitor how your apps use your data, set Billing cycle and restrict background or unwanted apps from using your data.

How to know if someone is sharing your data

Sharing of data with a maximum number of 5 people is a very useful feature introduced by Globacom, which people use for sharing their data subscription with their loved ones. But to must of us, this new feature is a "Blessing in disguise". You may not know that someone is sharing your data without your consent and that is why your data doesn't last as expected. Here is how to deal with this problem.

Dial *127*00#: this will reveal the list of numbers sharing your data subscription
To remove number from sharing your data subscription Dial *127*02*Number#

You may have get to a situation whereby you have bunch of bonus data but you can not browse with it. All you have to do to solve this problem is to send a text containing PAYU to 127 and your phone will start browsing with your bonus data.

Conclusion:

After reading this post, you must have understood what you have to do for you to enjoy the Glo Data Plan. But if you're living in an area where the service is totally poor, then I have no choice than to tell you to switch to another Network.

The second feature, International Calling (IDD), will enable you to hold the purse strings. You can check how the network charges for each call per minute for a specific country.

6. Call Diverts/Forwarding

The Call Divert or Forwarding feature allow you to divert your incoming calls to another number (be it local, International, Fixed, GSM, PTO’s and so on) or to your voicemail depending on any condition set which includes ‘All calls’, ‘When busy’, ‘When No reply’ or ‘When Not Reachable’).

You will be charged for diverting your calls to another number every time someone calls you. To divert your calls or to cancel the diverts, go through the menu of your phone. This service is available to both postpaid and prepaid Customers free of charge.

Quick Facts About Call Forwarding:

Diverts allow subscribers to have their calls forwarded to another number under four conditions. These conditions are:

When the subscriber is busy on a call
When the subscriber’s phone has been rining for a length of time
When the subscriber’s phone is not contactable (eg, turned off or out of coverage)
Unconditional – also called an “all call” divert
Diverts are available for all subscribers
There is a divert known as DCF. This divert is one that is set by the network and is only called upon if no other diverts exist (hence the name default call forwarding).
DCF is usually configured to route calls to voicemail.

Diverts are set up and cancelled by using the following codes:

click to view clear image

Because diverts are instructions to the network to make a call on behalf of the called party, a divert can be considered as an outgoing call. As a result if you divert calls then that call is charged to you

7. Glo Cafe'

Let me guess, you’re having a feeling that the current plan you’re on is unjustly, "out of temper" is that right? Well, before you make the decision of migrating to any other Glo Nigeria tariff plan, you should consider understanding how the network operate.

Are you ready?

Here we go;

I don't know about your area, but over here where I live, there’s this consensus that “GLO is the cheapest for making phone calls in Nigeria”

Heard something like that too?

Doesn't matter, just keep reading.

Below are the reasonable tariff plan available on the Glo Nigeria network.

1. G-BAM

They said this package offers amazing flexibility, offers a unique proposition to the Nigerian Youths, making it possible for them to check their mails, enjoy Facebook, Twitter e.t.c. But I'm not sure about that, here is what I'm sure about.

Normal call rate: Call Glo to Glo and any other network in Nigeria at 18K/s
Special offer: Call five special numbers at only 11K/s and enjoy 5MB free browsing every day.

Here's how to add special numbers; dial *101*1*glo-number#.

Cool right?

But that's not the end. You will be charged N5 daily on G-BAM, either you use the SIM or not. As far as you have more than N5 on your account it will be deducted before you can enjoy all the gems this profile offers.

Are you interested?

Kindly dial *100*5*1# to migrate.

2. Glo Jollific8

Are you the kind of person that loves huge figures? Them bonus upon bonus kind of numbers?

Glo Jollific8 is going to be a good choice.

Sadly, this profile is specially designed for new SIM cards. It is designed to give new prepaid customers eight times more value on every recharge.

That means, if you bought your SIM latest this month, you will be offered 800% more value on every recharge from N100 and above. You will get octuplet benefits, including bonus to call all local networks, browse freely and get free data that can be gifted to other subscribers. See breakdown of bonuses below:

N100 recharge gives N800 + 10MB (N50) = N850
N200 recharge gives N1,600 + 25MB (N100) = N1,700
N500 recharge gives N4,000 + 50MB (N200) = N4,200
N1,000 recharge gives N8,000 + 100MB (N400) = N8,400
N5,000 recharge gives N40,000 + 500MB (N2,000) = N42,000

You should get a new SIM card right? Hmm.. or what do you think?

Hear this now, On-net and off-net calls are charged at 67K/s. But is that too cost even though with all the bonuses? Do the math. Read here for more details

3. Glo Infinito

On level grounds with the next tariff plan, Glo Infinito is not the cheapest, but the wisest.

If I were an active GLO subscriber, this tariff plan would be the one for me.

Glo Infinito is a unique and simple prepaid tariff plan with no hidden charges, no rental payments and no conditions.

Normal call rate: Call Glo to Glo and any other network in Nigeria at 22K/s
Biggy Packs: you can buy Biggy Packs while on Infinito. Dial *170*1# for N100 pack which gives you N260 value, *170*2# for N300 pack which gives you N800 value and *170*3# for N500 pack which gives you N1,660 value
Special offer: You can call up to 10 Family and Friends at 11k/s.

Here's how to add FnF numbers; dial *101*1*Mobile No#. To modify selected FnF number dial *101*2*Existing F&F Mobile No*New F&F Mobile No#. And if you want to deregister/delete an FnF number dial *101*3*Mobile No#.

Are you interested?

Kindly dial *100*9*2# to migrate.

4. Glo 11k/s Prepaid Plan

As a network that prides itself in delivering unbeatable value to subscribers in the country, Glo recently introduced the Glo 11k/s plan.

It is somehow the same as the G-BAM. If you want to enjoy all the gems Glo 11k/s offers, N5 will be deducted from your account daily. But when daily access fee is not paid, local calls are made at 20k/s while international calls are at the default rate.

If you're the kind of person that mingle with people outside Nigeria, then this plan can be of good help.

Normal call rate: 11k/s calls to Glo customers and 15k/s to other networks in Nigeria
Special offer: 15k/s calls to 30 top international destinations (Australia, Bangladesh, Brunei, Canada, China, Cyprus, Denmark, Finland, French Guiana, Guam, Japan, Hong Kong, India, Israel, Luxembourg, Malta, Mongolia, Mexico, Netherlands, Norway, Puerto Rico, Reunion Island, Romania, Singapore, South Africa, South Korea, Spain, Sweden, UK, US ).
Free Data: You’ll get 10 minutes of free free browsing monthly.

Lol! 10 minutes of free browsing? Are you kidding?

..but they are serious!

What can you download in 10 minutes?

Nothing useful I guess.

Well, "not to have an axe to grind", if you're still interested, just dial *211# to migrate.

That is it.

I may be updating this post as the Globacom telco may be upgrading their tariff plans.

Stay glued for the latest update of this post and other interesting posts.

Oh! may be you didn't know that you can share you Glo data subscription with friends and family.
When people hear of Glo data sharing, they often mistake it with Glo data gifting; both of them are different services.

While Glo data sharing will allow you to invite up to 3 other persons to use your Glo data equally, Glo data gifting on the other hand is a situation where you can transfer certain amount of allowable data to other Glo lines.

If that is understood, now let me show you how you can share or invite 3 other Glo users to partake and use your data bundle equally anywhere they are as far as they are on Glo 2G or 3G network coverage areas.

To add a Glo number to share your data, follow the simple steps below:

Dial *127*01*GloNumberToAdd#
To remove any number from sharing your data dial *127*02*GloNumberToRemove#
Then to list people that are sharing your subscription dial *127*00#

When you add any number to share in your data bundle, an SMS will be sent out to the person notifying him/her of the invitation and they will immediately have access to start using your data.

The leader in telecommunications in Nigeria, and a part of a diverse community in Africa and the Middle East, MTN. We are going to catch a glimpse of some cool features that you probably didn't know they exist on the network.

Useful-MTN-Nigeria-Features-You-Didn't-Know-Exits-In-2017

The MTN Collect Call Service is a special prepaid service that allows you to stay in touch with your friends and family even when you have zero credit balance provided that the called party accepts to pay for the incoming voice call. This comes very handy in situations where the caller has run out of airtime and other similar situations. Dial *121*your friend number# to get started.

2. Set Caller Ring Back Tone For Specific Caller.

We are already familiar with the CRBT service provided by MTN, which allow you to set a soundtrack of your choice for your callers to listen to before you pick up your call while your phone is still ringing. Recently the company added more feature in the service which will allow you to set a soundtrack for a specific caller instead of your default CRBT. For example, you can set a soundtrack for your mum alone. Only her will listen to the soundtrack whenever she call you. Cool right? All you have to do is text
"Set+tonecode (space) your mum's Number" to 4100. For example: text Set41004 08133174347 to 4100

Thanks for reading. See you next time.

Mostly, whenever we are being asked to fill forms, which could be online or paper forms, we come across particular section of the form in which one is asked to input their country’s zip code, but many have wrongly input what they felt was the right zip code of their country without actually knowing that they are inputting the wrong code or that what they are inputting is not actually the zip code, but rather the dialing code of Nigeria.

how-to-find-postal-or-zip-code-in-nigeira

So the need to fill these forms properly and insert the proper zip code and dialing codes at the required section of the form becomes very important, as it can help for one’s document to be treated without glitches, especially when it comes to a case in which we are expecting to receive delivery of goods or letters or simply replies from the application that was made.

Zip codes and postal codes should not be confused with each other as both of them are the same, so they both can be used interchangeably in any document that you are feeling, so whenever you see zip code, one should know that they are also talking about the postal code, but zip/postal code is different from dialing code.

Simply, the Nigerian dialing code is the +234 that we always mistakenly put in place of the zip or postal code. The Nigeria postal/zip code is always made up of six (6) digit numbers and are grouped into different regions of the state in the country. The Nigeria Postal Service divides the country into nine (9) region, which makes up the first digit of the code, the second and third digits combined with the first are dispatched zones of district for outgoing sorting, and the last three digits are for delivery. For example, Garki has a postal code of 900247 which is the main postal head office in FCT Abuja, other districts or zones in the FCT have similar but entirely different postal codes.

So if you want to know the postal/zip code of your location in Nigeria, simply visit the Nigeria Post Code site, when you land there, choose your state, town, area and street name or region and get the postal/zip code of the place you are residing by just clicking at the get postcode tab there.

It is important to note that even if you are dwelling in the rural area, there on the site, you can easily choose rural postcode search, then key in your details as given above to obtain the post code of your location. Yes, it is that easy, and starting from today, do not key in again the dialing code in place of the zip/postal code. If you are happy with this article, kindly subscribe to get more updates
