This is a bad news for airtel subscribers who are benefiting from the free Facebook service simply known as freebasic which allows them access Facebook and chat for free even though pictures are videos are blocked on the free mode In Nigeria, both Airtel and 9Mobile offers free Facebook services and people has been enjoying it.
But no one expected this news this new year. I think it’s a bad way to welcome your subscribers to a new year. I just received the message from Airtel notifying me that the freebasic (free Facebook) service is no more unlimited but capped at certain data volume. Here is the message below;
Dear customer, pls be informed that Free Facebook service is now capped at20MBdaily. For Unlimited Facebook experience, dial*141#to activate a data plan.
Whether this is as a result of recession or fuel scarcity, my friends I don’t know but let’s take it the way we see it. Although I don’t use freebasic because those pictures are so important and I can’t be restricted to just Facebook and few other sites in the name of freebasic so I try my best to make sure there is active data plan on my phone 24/7.
What about you?
