@coola: thanks!!! I wont deny that MTN has been much more cunning in its advertizing. That Celtel advert is so boring I can honestly say i have never watched it from beginning to end. Nothing captures the eye or ear in the advert. to make it worse, as a friend of mine brought to my notice, the accents in the advert seem to all be east african!!!! Did they just bring the adverts from there thinking we are all the same?
@pxth: thinking about getting the sim for any emergency
I feel with the shake up that Glo's boss got weeks back has put the company into jeopardy. Thts the problem with mega-companies that have one person with too much control over it. With him dodging EFCC and police no one seems to be making moves for a quick comeback.
@amby: My mtel gprs hasnt been working!!! I got to use it during my 2 weeks in Abuja but back home im totally relying on wifi. Starcomms might be up and running by Dec then i'll be on 24/7.
@Ifed: Doesnt it make you wonder that up till now MTN (and most likely all the other GSM cos) dont have the capacity to really take on Naija's telephony needs? Lets say 500,000 people are making or receiving calls @ 12:30am to 4, why cant thier equipement take that capacity? That is why we are still paying thru the nose to make calls. Like i've said before, until 20 mins of calls per day (not incl the vampire hours) becomes affordable for most of nigerians, these guys will be having us over a barrel.

MTN'S rate crash has extended to postpaid customers. Who can beat this?
Monthly Access: 1,500
MTN 2 MTN : 27k/sec
MTN 2 Others : 37k/sec
MTN 2 MTN SMS: N5
SMS 2 Others: N12
Int. calls: 67k/sec
GPRS: 60k/kb
Unlimited GPRS: N12,000/month
I called Glo customer care to inform them of these rates and warned them that I'll drop my postpaid line by month end if they have no response MTN's offer.
Good running MTN, keep it up!

@brym: Come.... what is MTN "actually" doing? Are they so threatened by Celtel that they are now pulling out all stops, giving so many services and low prices that they neglected to do all this time? If we had seen this type of competition 5 yrs ago where would we have been by now?

@abu:Glo is really reeling in Adenuga's absence.Their control is just centralized.Heard the Oga has left London for Ghana and would be back by weekend after being guaranteed safety by Baba Aremu.In one week Glo will cancel that hoarse tariff they released just to "hold body" for a more wholesome one;watch out!On the networks,well,MTN has proven over time that their network is sub par(documented surveys)They only believe in ramping up subscriber figures.Now that Glo has nearly caught up with them they're re-strategising quality wise.Their call clarity has been improving of late but,one must confess,this slash has caught even them off stride.The initial midnight tariff slash for their anniversary was largely ignored by subscribrs so the present plan was based on the premise of low midnight traffic not knowing that Nigerian consumer behavior is largely unpredictable.I think Glo can weather the storm.they really have a superb network going by the voice quality.Let Oga come back first. The battle's just begun!

i still have the same problem of who to call at these "vampire hours"
You know i woke up one night trying to find a pal to call but could not find one in my phonebook that would not chop my head off if i did not have a good reason to call.
