Konga - An Apple MacBook Pro For N48000?

I was browsing through Konga this morning as I was searching for a portable PC for a friend. Soon i came across what I'll call the impossible. An Apple MacBook Pro going for N48000 on Konga. I didn't believe what I saw at first I had to recheck and behold it is actually true. Take a look at a screen shot I took.

I'm thinking this is probably a glitch or there's an error somewhere because no sane person will sellout a MacBook at that Price. This is not the first time Konga is having this kind of problem, sometime ago I could remember when an Infinix Note Note Price Tag was N200,000. Konga should try and resolve this quickly before it turn out to be something else.

What's your say guys?

How To Get 5GB + N2560 Airtime on MTN For N2000

A lot of surprise coming from MTN lately, could this be due to their recent huge lost in customers which they’re trying to make up for? Anyway it is though; I hope it’s worth a while. Just of recent MTN introduced an affordable data plan of 3.75GB for N2000 which is 500% better than previous data plans we had. Just yesterday again, I received information regarding a new data plan that left me stunned. Before I inform you, see the text for yourself.

At first I said to myself this is too good to be true, but I subsequently found out that it’s actually real. This plan offers 5GB data + N2560 all for N2000.This is probably the most affordable plan we’ll ever get from MTN so I guess it’s best if we make hay while the sun still shines.

Who Is Eligible?

Well virtually everyone is eligible for this plan as long as you have an MTN SIM card and you’re on MTN True talk.

How to Subscribe

• First thing to do is to migrate to MTN True talk if you’re not on the package by dialing *400#
• Soon after you receive confirmation for migration, Load N2000 Airtime on your line
• Send in SMS D2000 to 131 to subscribe. This plan is valid for 30 days.

Also there’s another plan similar to this that offers 100MB + N1950 for N500.If you intend to opt in for this just Send V500 to 131 and it’ll be activated immediately. This plan is valid for 7 days.

The two other plans introduced by MTN are the 3.75GB and 1.3GB for N2000 and N1000 respectively.

• To subscribe for 3.75GB Plan - SMS 110 to 131 and you’ll be charged N2000 for activation.
• To subscribe for 1.3GB Plan - SMS 106 to 131 this costs N1000.

Airtel Introduces Free Facebook Access To All of Its Customers

Few years back, I can vividly remember when we had free acess to facebook with almost all of our Networks,shortly after it was discontinued for whatsoever reason best known to them all. Airtel NG has now officially reintroduce this free facebook plan.This plan is open to all Airtel customers and does not require some sort of eligibility.

Airtel Free Facebook provides you with free unlimited access to facebook at all times. However some photos and video are not available.Just a normal facebook to stay updated with your buddies at all times.

How To Access Airtel Free Facebook

All you have to do is to do is launch your browser and type in free.facebook.com instead of the normal facebook.com

Does this work with all Browsers?

Well tecnically I'll say no,justifiably. I’ve tried accessing this with all of my browsers but only opera mini and CM Browser seem to be working. I don’t know if this is from me tho,but you can try other browsers yourself and see how it turns out.

You Can Now Contact MTN Customer Care On WhatsApp

Calling MTN customer care service can be very exasperating at times, sometimes you even have to wake up in the middle of the night just to file a complain.Well MTN has considered its customers and deem it fit to introduce an easier way to communicate with its customers. 

It has introduced a customer care platform on WhatsApp messenger. Considering the rate at which WhatsApp is growing these days I'll say it was an excellent move by the telecommunications Network. With this you'll save the stress of waiting incessantly for their agent to pickup when you dial 180.
