If you are a regular user of the Airtel Night Plan, you may have noticed a significant price increase. Previously, Airtel offered 250MB for just N25, but now the same amount will cost you N50 for 250MB. This sharp reduction in data volume has left many subscribers frustrated.
This price hike follows a similar move by MTN, which recently increased its monthly data plan from N2,000 to a whopping N6,000. Although MTN later revised its decision after issuing an apology, it remains unclear whether Airtel will follow suit and roll back this increase for its Airtel Trybe Night Plan users.
What Is Airtel Trybe?
Airtel Trybe is a prepaid tariff plan that allows Airtel users to affordable data, including the popular Airtel Night Plan. This night plan is designed for heavy internet users who prefer to browse at night at a lower cost and for some of us, this is the data we use to download movies and other heavy apps and games from the internet.
Alternative to the Airtel Night Plan
With the latest price adjustment, users may need to reconsider their data consumption strategies.
At Night plans are available on Glo and MTN. In fact, with the MTN Night Plan, you can browse with the cheap data plan from 11:00 pm to 6:00 am, and if you are on the Glo Night Plan, your data remains active for 24 hours, meaning, if you buy your Glo Night Plan at 2:00 am today, it will expire at 2:00 am tomorrow. they also have the 1GB for N100 Glo Night plan that lasts for 5 days. So if the Airtel night plan has become too expensive, here are some of the best alternatives to consider.
