This post shows you how to browse with airtime on 9mobile (Etisalat).
In a case, you have a HUGE amount of airtime on your line and you want to browse with it coz you feel like the internet is the best way you can think of consuming the airtime.
You are not the only one doing this though, in my case I prefer connecting with friends and family online to avoid interruptions.
9mobile (formerly Etisalat) now permits subscribers to browse with airtime after activating the pay-as-you-go service.
About the 9mobile Browse With Airtime Service
It’s called PAYG on 9mobile. PAYG means Pay As You Go which allows 9mobile customers to browse using the money in their account.
Right here, you don’t need to subscribe to a 9mobile data plan to make the “browse with airtime” service work for you. All you need is to activate PAYG and you are good to go.
9mobile PAYG offers browsing at N15/5min. That is, if you recharge N100 on your line, and activate PAYG, you will be charged N15 for every 5 minutes you browse the internet.
Cool stuff. See how to opt-in for this service below.
