N200 for 2GB seems too good to be true, why opt-out of this plan?
Airtel 2G subscribers claimed the 2G network on Android is as slow as snail, whereas, some BlackBerry 10 users confirmed they enjoyed fast internet when switched to H+. As a result of the slowness, opting out is the escape route, we got stuck on the 2G network not allowing users opt out of the plan, especially users interested in other suitable 3G/H+ Airtel data plans.
How to Opt-out of Airtel 2G Data Plan?
Follow the steps below to opt-out completely…
First, dial 4824#, you will receive an invalid request message. Immediately, reply with * then reply with 3. You will get a response “you have cancelled your 2G data subscription”
If you’ve successfully opted-out, kindly follow the link to setup Airtel 3GB BlackBerry plan on your MTK Android phone; this is for those complaining of it not working. In another news, 2 days ago, Airtel limited their SmartTRYBE Night Plans to N25 for 500MB & N50 for 1.5GB respectively.
