I dumped glo service since August 2015, It was the only sim I do subscribe to for browsing and downloading (2.5k fo 4.5gig) in Ile-Ife and I've always enjoyed it, sometimes I do finish the data before the end of the month. I started noticing the fluctuation in service june last year but managed to use it wasting like 650mb. The last subscription I did was the worst of all, I traveled from Ife to Osogbo and even went for a wedding in Lagos, it was the same in all these locations, I wasted 1.5gig of that at the end of that month. So many of my friends had the same complain about the network. I still use the sim though, for calls only.


In osogbo glo network is now the best .You can ask anyone in OSOGBO

Don't turn off your data o...if you do, it would take 3 hours and countless restart to get it running. Glo should be #1 in Nigeria, but they lack leadership.

[size=13pt]@ OP, I've been using GLO data service for quite a long time and it connects like lightning here in Port Harcourt, I think it depends on your location, take note some remote locations only get GPRS/EDGE which is slow, while in the city you can get HSPA...thats really fast!
Also check your system and browser if using a computer to browse....
I use goggle chrome on my system and the speed is superb, one other thing i like about GLO data is that your data gets rolled over to the next month if you didnt exhaust it after your validity period expires unlike others, but you must have the required credit on your line for auto roll-over ....


Meanwhile check out this link for superb and affordable accommodation in Port Harcourt : https://www.nairaland.com/2796455/brand-new-affordable-luxury-flats[/size]



Thank u sir for the truth

I can relate OP.

Bought their sim three days ago because of their cheap data plans, but i must say the service is really poor.

Switching back to etisalat soon... Quality is better than quantity.

bro, fast or slow network depends on your location, where I stay in Lag Glo is baba likewise Etisalat. so what were you saying??...well i agree that their network should b stable & strong in all major locations across 9ja. FTC!!!
Etisalat is d best among others
Re: Why I Hate GLO Data Service With A Passion: What Of You? by donwalome(m): 11:24am On Feb 23, 2016
I have said it before and ill say it again. Glo network is struggling and it has been bad for a while. If they like let them use all the ambassadors in the world, it won't bring back their customers if their services continue to disappoint. It's either they come to terms with present realities of their network or they don't offer us service at all till they get their act straight. Etisalat is the best network in Nigeria today, tomorrow and maybe forever.

Please , sir where in ogba do you stay , that would make me able to narrow down to the site serving u .or better still if u can download g-net track u will be able to tell me the cell ID u are latched on that will make it easier to check through the problem. just give a precise location

U mean the sim card that I've already ditched? I can't even remember where I threw it.

Please Sir, Mr. Glo representative, tell Globacom that we are not happy with the way they treat their customers.

I switched to etisalat last week because of their unstable network.

the internet service disappear for about 2-3 days without any apology to their customers.

But you can't re-port after just 5 days. You've got to wait for 3 months.

Brother glo is a dead network...they know that themselves and thats why they want to be decieving people with stùpid cheap data..
But i cant fall for them again..

Talking about location,i've been to kaduna,nasarawa,benue,enugu,anambra,imo and lagos...but all are the same slow connection

Now tell me is it when we start climbing mast and high tension that we will be in a better location to have good service

Re: Why I Hate GLO Data Service With A Passion: What Of You? by danehijan: 11:42am On Feb 23, 2016
Global data service has never been reliable. Etisalat is the best option. And maybe you also manage MTN but they are thieves.

I had a very bad experience with Glo too. I live in owerri where etisalat data service is good. But because I had a few problem with my etisalat line which they cud not rectify immediately, I poted to glo. It was then I knew that I have jumped into fire. Those 90 days before I cud Pot back was d worst days of my life. Thank God am off the network now. If I am to chose between 3 devils, etisalat wud still be my choice.
try airtel anywhere in IMO, thank me later.

Glo is the best in Nigeria ,1000 naira for 3gig I use it for 31days, AIRTEL 1500naira for 3gig I use it for 7days,MTN is best in cheat,u can alert me for d best to use.

op I totally agree with you. And for those defending Glo that their services depend on location, my question is why? Why must Glo depend on location? Every other network works well almost everywhere but when it's Glo it has to depend on location. Meanwhile Glo is poor almost everywhere in Nigeria

It has network issues cos it's over crowded, yet they try thier best to provide two different serves just to be this efficient.

National coverage wise, glo is better
Over crowded than MTN? My brother see how many people are complaining...at least 8 in 10 people say its poor. Which national coverage? Don't even try to travel with Glo, its not go for on-the-road browsing.

Lol. I use 25gb Spectranet in less than 3 weeks, does that also mean the network is bad? I finish my 2gb MTN within 1 week and I don't even use it when I'm st home as I connect to home WiFi. Simply put, ur glo 3gb is able to last 31 days because it is slow and most or the times it doesn't even work. Quality is better than quantity.
Re: Why I Hate GLO Data Service With A Passion: What Of You? by danxzy: 12:09pm On Feb 23, 2016
My dear not only u am also a victim of such treatment from GlO NETWORK. I use to buy 200mb data from GLO every 4days but to connet to the internet is always a bad deal for GLO. For 200mb data i can only use 20mb before the 4days then there will take it back. the only benefit from them is the low charge call rate apart from it GLO dont suppose to be my network. if not that AIRTEL is very bad for residensial ib would have subscribe AIRTEL

The answer to your problems is MTN hynet WIFI. Their cheapest data plan is N4000 for 9 GB (30 days duration). It is super fast.
Please give me more info. A link perhaps. Thanks!
Re: Why I Hate GLO Data Service With A Passion: What Of You? by magicfingers009: 12:19pm On Feb 23, 2016
Oga you are not an IT specialist. If you were up to date, you would know that Glo sub station in port Harcourt had all the Huaweii support staff laid off that's why their network in PH is seriously crappy. When talking about QoS, reliability is key. What's the redundancy structure of glo's network now? Glo's text, voice, data all rubbish

kennysteve77:
As an IT Consultant, many people have approached me to recommend a good Internet Service Provider. My first question to them is "Where would you be for the most part of your day?"... I say authoritatively that Glo has the best facility for Internet Service in Nigeria but their specialized data carrier is not everywhere, just like ALL other providers. Because we are in Nigeria, we all need to make a little findings before deciding on which service to go for. If you are lucky to be within the areas where Glo 3G/3.5G network is superb, then I say congratulations to you because you'll enjoy excellent service at low price.
