Download Large File With 15 Naira on Etisalat Unlimited Plan

              
Etisalat seems to have the best time-base data plan, Etisalat pay as you go (PAYG) is a time base data plan just like the popular MTN data plan which gives 150MB data for 250 Naira in 2 hours.

Etisalat’s time base data plan is totally unlimited and it goes for 15 naira for every 5 minutes, so for 1 hour you will spend just 180 Naira on an unlimited data cap.

The good thing about this plan is that Etisalat has one of the best internet speed, so you can imagine how many data you will have pulled in an hour, I have read on a site where people claim to have downloaded up to 10GB file in 2 hours that just going to cost 360 Naira.
So if you have a huge file to download no need to start panicking on how much you will spend, Etisalat Unlimited plan will always be there for you.
How To Subscribe to Etisalat Unlimited Data Plan for 15 naira for 5 minutes

1. Dial *229*5*7# and wait for an SMS notification that you are now on PAYG.
2. Now your SIM card is on PAYG internet plan, so when you start browsing you will be charged 15 Naira for every 5 minutes. (lets say you have 30 Naira on your SIM, you will be able to browse for 10 minutes).

NOTE:

1. After subscribing, your time starts immediately your phone’s data is on or your modem is connected, even if you don’t browse, so far your mobile is showing E/3G/H+ or your datacard is connected.
2. You should know you will be charged every 5 minutes, so if you have 1000 Naira on your SIM and you keep browsing, 15 naira will always be deducted every 5 minutes except you unsubscribe by dialing *229*0#
3. The plan will serve you best if you have 3G service in your location.

To unsubscribe dial *229*0#

How to Pay For DSTV Subscriptions and Airtel Postpaid Bills on Quickteller

I have written about this in two separate posts before -- one was for DSTV subscription and the other was for Airtel Postpaid bills. 

Unfortunately, things have changed since then. Not just that I have stopped paying for DSTV subscription and now watch CCTV (God bless China. Too bad I'm not learning Chinese). Quickteller has completely changed their site. It now looks like a Windows 8 start screen. And I like it. 

So I have to make a new relevant post, but this time I won't want to bore my readers with two separate posts with lots of repetitions. I will explain both in one straightforward post.

So let's head to the new cool Quickteller site: www.quickteller.com

Sign up, if you haven't registered on Quickteller before. And if you have, like me, then log in.

It shows me the online payments I have made on the site before.

Lemme expand the DSTV one, so you don't think I was always subscribing to the Family Bouquet.

But for you, you'll probably see nothing under "My Services". You'll be starting from scratch.

And here's how.
At the upper right side of the Quickteller site, you'll see a search box. That's what you'll use. That box will take you to any service you want to make payment for.

Let's start with DSTV subscription.
Type DSTV in the search box.

Ignore the suggestions and click search.

You'll get a result page.

1 item found: DSTV Subscription. And that's just what you need.
Click on the "DSTV Subscription" and Select the Bouquet you wanna pay for. (Compact Bouquet is identified as MINI, others still retain their regular names. Family is Family and Premium is Premium).

Click on Continue to go to the next step.
You'll be required to enter your Smart Card number, email and phone number.
Click on Continue again.

It pre-filled my email and phone number because I have provided them during registration. I just have to enter my DSTV smart card number. And click on Continue.

You'll be taken to the payment confirmation page.

Click on Pay.
You'll be taken to the payment page where you'll provide your ATM card details.

Gotcha! You were expecting to see my ATM card details, ehn? 
Enter your details and pay.

You will get a payment successful SMS and email. Call DSTV on 2703232 to inform them about your payment. It's not necessary, but I like the peace of mind it gives.


Now to Airtel Postpaid line payment. 
Type Airtel in the search box.

6 items found. Well, we only need the first item: Airtel Bill Payment (Postpaid)

Click on it.

Fill in the phone number you want to pay for, email and the amount you want to credit the phone with. I used to pay the exact bill figure I owe, but now I pay more than that so I don't get to pay every month, spending time and extra transaction charge.

Click on continue when done.

The system will pull out your name as it is on Airtel database. See how it doubled mine.

Click on Pay.

Enter your ATM details and pay.
You'll get SMS notification and email.

Welcome to the online world of convenience!
