Airtel Nigeria is one of the most popular network providers within the confines of Nigeria. The reason for the popularity of airtel is mostly because of its pocket-friendly data and call rates, amongst other interesting features.
These interesting features actually are what have endeared many Nigerians to this network. One of such features that we will be looking at today in a more in-depth way is the family and friend feature of airtel. But before we go fully into this, let’s first establish the meaning of the term airtel family and friends, so we wouldn’t commit the fallacy of ambiguity.
Airtel Family And Friends Overview
How Do Family and Friends Work on Airtel?
Having used this service for some years and being in the field of technology, I have come to the full understanding that out of the number numbers of family and friends (FAF) you wish to add to your list, Airtel will just allow you to add 5 people for free and the rest of the people want to add will cost N50 per number added.
I may advise you to only to your FAFS list the numbers you usually call. A person like me, I add only my fiance, aunt, and dad which I do call frequently.
Airtel Family and Friends Code
If you are using the airtel network on phone and you are searching for the airtel family and friend (FAF) code, then check below for the airtel FAF code as listed here;
The code for adding a number to your family and friends list is *311*2*number#. Assuming your mother is using the airtel network and you want to add her to your list (let’s assume her number is 08133772290) Then you have to dial *311*2*08133772290#. You will instantly receive a message which confirms the successful addition of the number.
NOTE: Only five (5) numbers are to be added at a time

Benefits of Airtel Family and Friends
The following are some of Airtel FAF’s most advantageous features:
You are authorized to add your friends and family’s phone numbers to get different call rates on top-up.
There is no expiration date (i.e you can leave registered numbers on the list for a long time).
There is no set rule. You may always go back and look at the contacts you added, delete the old numbers, and add new ones with the FAF code.
All prepaid users can use the family and friends services, and you don’t have to switch to a different tariff plan to take advantage of it; it works with all Airtel rates.
You won’t need a big recommendation; all you want is an Airtel Sim card that is registered and active on your device.
Conclusion
If you’re wondering how to switch to the Family and Friends plan, that’s all you need to know.
As I previously stated, FAF is not a tariff plan; rather, it is a new service that allows customers to contact loved ones at a reduced call charge.
Once again, you are not migrating to friends and family. You can use this service and gain from its benefits regardless of your tariff plan.
So don’t make a mistake with the migration code process.
