Few days ago, MTN Nigeria stopped the BlackBerry Internet Service (BIS) from working on other devices and it is now working only on Blackberry Phones. Although, some are still using it on their Android Phones & Tablets and on PC by making use of Virtual Private Network (VPN) Applications and Softwares like DroidVPN for Android, PD Proxy for PC, Tunnel Guru for PC and so on. Watch out for our upcoming post on How to use the MTN Blackberry Internet Subscription (BIS) on Android devices via DroidVPN and How to use the MTN Blackberry Internet Subscription (BIS) on PC via PD Proxy.
Due to the blocked MTN BIS which affected and is still affecting many people in Nigeria, I have decided to share the latest BlackBerry Internet Service trick for Airtel tonight. The Blackberry Internet Service on Airtel Nigeria is still rocking and its very fast, just get a registered Airtel SIM and follow the procedure explained below.
Note: The Airtel BIS subscription and activation process explained below costs #1600 and it gives you a total data of 2GB which you can use for 30 days (depending on usage).
I'm presently using the Airtel BlackBerry Internet Subscription, you can also enjoy it while it lasts. Do you have any problem while activating this BIS on your Airtel SIM ? Then drop your questions, suggestions and contributions here by making use of the comment box provided below and kindly share this informative post with your friends and family so that they can also enjoy it while it lasts.

Note: The Airtel BIS subscription and activation process explained below costs #1600 and it gives you a total data of 2GB which you can use for 30 days (depending on usage).
Airtel BlackBerry Subscription / Activation Procedure
- After getting a registered Airtel SIM and inserting it in ANY phone, recharge the total amount of #1600 and check your account balance with *123# to make sure the total balance on the SIM card is up to #1600.
- Now, Dial *440*16# and you will get a message that your Airtel unlimited Blackberry service is live. This message confirms that you've been successfully subscribed to the Airtel BlackBerry Service which costs #1500 for 1 month with 2GB data cap.
- Now If you check your account balance, you will see that #1500 has been deducted and you have #100 left. The #100 remaining is as important as the #1500 that was deducted because without this #100, you can't browse yet with the 2GB BIS data you just subscribed to.
- To make the BIS subscription work, now dial *141*11*1#. This USSD code will subscribe you to the Airtel Daily Data Bundle which costs #100 thereby the remaining #100 in your account balance will be deducted and you will get a You've successfully added the 10MB data bundle message immediately.
- Now, check your total data bundle by dialing *123*10# or *141*712*0# and your total number of data will be displayed.

Deletemy airtel univ modem nt browsing with the normal setting
ReplyDeleteI don't think you've configured it properly, Mr Robert. Try to re-configure it again by setting a new browsing profile. Let me know if that works and if it doesn't, what error exactly do you get ?
DeletePlz wat application do I need to have on my laptop to be able to receive calls while I am browsing? The problem is dat whenever I insert my sim card inside my modem and start browsing, I tend to have calls coming, so one day I tried using my other line to call while browsing and it was ringing buh it wasn't showing dat it was rining on my laptop! Plz wat can I do to receive calls on my laptop while still browsing with my sim card in my modem! Plz help me out! Tnx... My email is thickalicious@yahoo.com
ReplyDeleteThe ability to receive calls on PC via USB Modem with SIM depends on the Modem itself. There are some Modems designed to receive calls on PC while most of them are not. Which type of Modem do you use ?
DeleteThere is this new code on airtel that's gives you 4GB with just #1500. Pls may I have it?
ReplyDeleteI heard about it but I don't have the code yet.. I will get full info on it and post it as soon as I have it. Thanks
DeleteThank you for the job weldone,keep it up and keep in touch cos you really helped.
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot Muhammad, I appreciate the time you took to comment.
DeleteI have about 1500mb on my phone but I can't browse with my etisalat hacked moderm.it will be conected but can't open any browser
ReplyDeleteAre you sure you are using the correct Airtel Internet Settings ? Which one are you using ? I mean the Access Point Name (APN).
DeletePlease help. I have a problem I subscribe on my phantom A+ using the code *440*16# they deducted the N1500 and yet my phone is not browsing. Please help . I have been calling airtel to see if they can convert it to data plan since is not working but they never pick. What should I do please anyone help. My email is aggymordi@yahoo.com
ReplyDeleteOkay Henrietta, Don't worry.. It will probably work since the #1500 was deducted but there are somethings you have to figure out first. Check if you've been given any data by dialing *123*10# or *141*712*0#. If yes, then recharge #100 on your phone and subscribe to the daily data plan which will be added to your current Data, the code for the daily plan is *141*11*1#. Your phone should be browsing by now. Let me know what happens. Cheers !!!
DeleteI did subscribe for airtel 1,500 bb plan but they prohibited me from using it. But lemme try the daily mb stuff and see... thanks for the good work, I shall recommend people to visit your site for traffic accumulation

ReplyDeleteLoading the 10MB in addition to the 2GB will make it work but it seems like you will have to reactivate the 2GB before it will work because you shouldn't have deactivated it in the first instance.
DeleteOK then but Hw do I reactivate it. Do I need to call customer care or is dere a code pls
ReplyDeleteYes, call the Customer care for the reactivation but don't tell them you want to use it on a Non-BlackBerry Device to be on the safer side.

DeletePls i just subscribed 4 airtel bis bt when i try to browse, they tell me i cn only use wifi. How cn i activate the browser. My phne is a bb torch 3.
ReplyDeleteYou have a problem with your phone, not your Airtel BIS subscription. I'll suggest you check the Internet connection settings of your Browser to fix that problem.
DeletePlz I jes subscribe nd follow d instruction u gv me bt it doesn't wrk on my ipad 2, wat shld I do? Coz dey gv me mb after sub bt still nt wrking den later do a day sub bt still dsame. Plz cum to my aid.
ReplyDeleteHello, with your explanation, it ought to start working immediately you subscribed to that daily plan. But I'll suggest you put the SIM in another phone to test it and know if the problem is from Airtel or your iPad 2.
DeletePls,i'v used ol d codes but i'v not bn able to view my total data,it's d 10mb i can c...10q

ReplyDeleteOoh, that's weird. I'm so sorry for the very late response. I guess the plan would have expired by now. If not, I'd suggest you call their customer care to complain about it.
DeletePls can u give me d code for weekly plan? Tnx.
ReplyDeleteThis is it - *440*17#
DeleteCan I use MTN or GLO blackberry subscription on pc
ReplyDeleteYes, you can use the GLO BIS subscription to browse on PC as explained in this post - How to Browse on any Device with the GLO BIS Plan, #1000 for 3GB . While the MTN BIS subscription usage on PC will be released soonest. Stay Tuned !!!
