Airtel and dishonesty. I can easily guess that they'll slow down the speed so you download very minimally within the timeframe. They'll also introduce fair usage data limit when they feel you did overide their plans to cunningly limit you.

i tried it out and guess what? exactly as you said! the slimey cheating bast*rds conned me on this one.

I tried subscribing to the 60min plan and it's telling me unsuccessful because am on already on an unlimited offer. Tho am on unlimited bis package, I have since exhausted the mb tho it will still expire next week.
How can I successfully subscribe for this package?

Re: Airtel Introduces The New Time Based Unlimited Data Plan For Every Device by soki2ng(m): 6:31pm On Jan 08, 2016
So many questions about this Airtel Unlimited plan. Let me try to answer some.

1. Those using this plan on Blackberry OS10 (z10,q10) and even Android and modem Users, the access point (APN) you should create and set as default is " internet.ng.airtel.com "

2. Those getting the error that they're already on this plan: You cannot subscribe for the plan TWICE within a 24 hour period.
So if you've used 1 Hour Unlimited plan around 4PM, You will have to wait till 4-5 PM the next day before you can subscribe another 1 Hour.
If you can't wait, then you have the option of also subscribing 30 mins, 15 mins plans but they all can be done once a day.

3. Yes you can Hotspot it to other devices to run Windows Update, Antivirus updates or Upgrade your Phone OS and App downloads.

4. Speed concerns: Ensure your Phone / modem is set to 3G ONLY, not Auto. I've hit top speeds of 1.5 Mb/s. Torrent downloads all work.

There's also an Unlimited Airtel Night plan for 500=6 Hours or 200 (3 Hours ) Starts from 12 midnight to 6 AM:
I've written a post about this here: www.ngbuzz.com/index.php?topic=1637.0

Airtel Nigeria just recently launched a new data plan called the time or hourly based Unlimited data.
The data plan which is very similar to that of etisalat paygo but little bit expensive when compared to that of etisalat paygo data.

The new Airtel time based unlimited data plan is of 4 different categories and all with 1 day maximum validity period, which their main motive is to offer Nigerians Unlimited data based on time frame.

The airtel time based goes like this 5minute for N15, 10minute for N30, 30min for N90 and the last package is the 1hour plan for N180.

How to subscribe to the Airtel time based unlimited data
To subscribe to any of the 4 Airtel time based unlimited data plans, simply dial the code *439# and then reply with the number that corresponds with any of the 4 plans that best suits you, after which you will be asked to reply with 1 to activate the plan.

Remember that the new Airtel time based plan has a one day validity period, meaning that any unused time left will expire the next day.
Are you sure about this??

This is a scam,
It is not unlimited, even the 1hr of 180 naira is less than 500 mb.
Try to see the messages immediately after 1. 3, 3 and 4
