I know that you guys have been surfing the net for the best Airtel tariff plan with the lowest call rates and extra bonuses. This is not a new thing, as I even searched for it online before finding the solution, and that’s why I have decided to share this useful information with you guys.
Airtel is rated as one of the best telecommunications networks in Nigeria, though sometimes its network fluctuates. Also, some people complain that the rate of calls on Airtel is high, but I oppose the motion by telling you right here that the rate charged for calls depends on the tariff plan that you are on.
What is the tariff plan?
From the best of my research, I have come to understand that the tariff plan is a kind of charge that is defined to keep competitors and regulations in mind. Due to the terminology used in each billing system, tariffs are made up of two types, which are “call rate and price plan.”

A tariff plan may likely be compared to the marketplace, where you may go to a particular shop and buy 4 cubes of sugar for 20 naira and move to another shop; you realise that the 5 cubes of the same product are sold for the same amount of money. This simply means there could be different types of charges to be applied for a product and its associated services.
To be honest with you, there are various cheap tariff plans at Airtel. So, you have to choose wisely when choosing the best tariff plan. The most recommended plan is “Airtel SmartConnect”; however, you must get a new Airtel SIM card before you can enjoy this plan.

Choosing an Airtel Tariff plan: Factors to consider
To find a plan that meets your needs, start by reviewing each of the areas below to help you decide what makes the most sense for you and your budget.
- Data usage. Data is normally the costliest part of a phone plan. If you browse the net with your mobile device or use it for social media, you need an internet plan with specific data, such as 1GB to 4GB monthly. This is sensible if you plan to invest less each month compared to an unlimited data plan. You need to consider this when selecting an Airtel Tariff plan.
- Coverage area. Ensure there is coverage for Airtel in your area before selecting a tariff plan. It can be very frustrating choosing a tariff plan and later finding out Airtel network is not consistent or reliable where you currently are.Â
- Number of phone lines. If you have more than one Airtel SIM, you have to consider if they will be on the same plan.
- Extra features. Consider which tariff plan features are (and aren’t) of value to you, such as international roaming, data, or free streaming services.
Tips for saving money and getting the most value out of your Airtel Tariff plan
- Ensure you check your tariff plan so you don’t end up investing in features that you won’t use.
- Utilise Wi-Fi when possible and try to turn off background data use.
- Analyse the pros and cons of your present tariff plan.
- Leverage any tariff plan discounts like family, multiple lines, student or carrier-specific rewards programs.
- Review to check if your tariff plan offers free streaming services. This can save you cost on data.
