Airtel has just announced a new 150% data bonus to run alongside the previous Airtel 100% data bonus from June 2017. This new bonus data plan runs on Airtel’s Android data plans and is applicable to both prepaid and postpaid users.
Other offer in the Airtel Bonus data bundle include; 500MB for N200 and 3.75GB for N1000 instead of 1.5GB. The catch however is the normal Airtel SIM eligibility issues.
To be sure that you are qualified for this offer, you will have to get this SMS notification from Airtel as shown in the screenshot below.
If your SIM is eligible, all your subsequent subscription to any Airtel Android Plans will get the extra bonuses for the next 6 months.
How to be eligible for Airtel data bonus offer
The fastest way to be eligible for all Airtel bonuses is just to keep using their data services and at least rollover a data subscription. That is, do not allow a subscription to expire, once it is about a week to expire, make a new subscription. Your existing data will be merged with the new data allowance and the date of validity will be extended.
Once you do that for any plan up to N5000 worth of data, your SIM will be activated for all future Airtel bonuses.
