What makes Airtel 20GB internet plan very attractive?
The Airtel 20GB internet, also called the Airtel Plus plan, offers 30-day 24/7 internet access limited to 3GB for ₦5,000. Airtel was formally offering 1GB internet access at N5,000, then 3GB, and now 20GB. So, with Airtel Plus Internet plan you are getting a lot more data allowance at the same price.
When compared with offerings from other networks within the same range, the Airtel 3GB internet plans stands out as a great deal. It is obviously one of the best data deals you can get on internet access in Nigeria for ₦5,000.
For example Glo and 9Mobile offers just 17GB and 15GB data allowance respectively for ₦5,000. Only MTN matches the 20GB at 5,000 Naira. Airtel 20GB internet browsing bundle is one of the best plan for mid range users.
Who needs Airtel 3GB internet browsing plan?
If your monthly internet data access needs is more than 1GB but less than 3GB, the Airtel Plus internet browsing bundle is probably the best deal for you.
If you are an above average user, probably browsing the internet on a 3G coverage area and downloading videos and data files, the Airtel Plus Internet browsing plan is a great entry plan.
If you find it inadequate, you can then upgrade to a higher data plan. If all you can spare in a month for internet access is N5,000, the Airtel 3GB internet browsing plan is the best deal for you.
How to access Airtel 3GB Internet?
The Airtel 3GB Internet browsing bundle can be accessed via an internet enabled phone (GPRS/EDGE/WCDMA/HSDPA) or a compatible internet modem. Buy and load Airtel recharge cards worth ₦5,000 into your internet enabled mobile phone, device, or USB modem and dial *141*5000#.
You will receive an SMS in a short-while informing you of the success or failure of your request. If your request is successful, you now start browsing the internet. In 30-days or on using 20GB, your Airtel Smartphone internet plan will expire. The downside of Airtel internet packages is that you are not alerted when your internet package expires.
Once your Airtel internet package expires, your internet access will automatically default to pay as you go at 15kb/s without alerting you. So if you have extra credit on your device, it may be wiped out before you know what is going on.
