Airtel to Block Other Devices from Accessing their BIS Plan starting December 3rd

Airtel Nigeria’s sending SMSes to its customers letting them know that starting from the 3rd of December, (2013), they would be blocking non-BlackBerry access to their BlackBerry Internet Service (BIS).

Their BIS plans have been a source of cheap internet to android and iOs users for a while now in these parts. While we are on the matter, that’s a great place to start looking for your next plan, if you have depended on Airtel’s BIS for your other devices.

The new move, which is probably due to either revenue leakage or degraded quality of service for the actual BIS subscribers will leave many non-BlackBerry users in these parts unamused.

If its any consolation, you can get all you can from their BBM plans HERE for a decent price from your android or iOs device.
