Airtel New Data Offer - Get 4.5GB Data For Just 2K

Airtel old data plan of 4GB for N1,500 promo, was quite economical and very affordable for the average Nigerians, subscribers were not happy when the plan was cancelled by Airtel. Today I actually got a great news for Airtel subscribers, Airtel has introduced new data bundle with N2,000 you can get 4.5GB data. This is a promo plan like that of 4GB for N1,500 which was blocked sometime ago. As we know Airtel, they have been so selective on their data offers, unfortunate not all Airtel lines will be able to accept this offer, to verify either your line will be among of eligible/qualified, just follow the below procedure.

• Before you load the required amount to your phone for this plan.
• Simply dial *440*161#
• When you receive a message: “Dear customer, you do not have sufficient balance for this plan”, which means your line is eligible for the offer.
• Proceed with the loading of required amount to your account.
• But if after dialing the code, you get this message “Dear customer, you do not qualify for this plan”, don't load the money on it because it will not work for that line, but you can always try other Airtel Sims at your disposal, definitely one would turn up for you.

After you have confirmed that your line is eligible, here are the procedure to get 4.5GB for 2k:

• Load your Airtel line with N2,000 Airtime.
• Then dial *440*161# or *437*1#. 
• You'll be credited with 4.5GB data bundle valid for 30 days.
• Dial *141*712*0# or *123*10# to check your data bundle balance.

No special setting required, just insert that sim to your modem, smartphone or any browsing device, connect with the normal Airtel setting you are using before and you are good to go.
I think this should be a better alternative to the MTN Night Plan of N2,500 for 4.5GB which makes you stranded during the day when you exhausted 1.5GB allocated. Enjoy it while it last.
