By Glo Berekete: Everything you need to know
Glo Berekete is a tariff plan for prepaid customers that comes packed with data and voice bonuses. Subscribers have to top up a minimum of N100 in order to qualify. The tariff plan is available to both new and old customers, but there is a fine print for customers who have been on the network for over 120 days. In this article, we simplify the Glo Berekete tariff plan the best way possible.
Before reading on, remember that this is a tariff plan and not a promotion. It is highly likely that it is here to stay.
How it works
Subscribers have to recharge their lines with a minimum of N100 in order to qualify for the data and voice bonus. As a promo, Berekete gives subscribers bonuses as much as N20,000 for voice to call all networks and 5GB data from one recharge. So, it is safe to say that the bonus is based on your recharge.
In addition, new subscribers on the network, Globam, receive a welcome bonus of N600 from a top-up of N100. Another reward for the new subscriber is that she gets 100% extra data on data purchases between N50 and N10,000 – to use between 12 am and 5 am daily. The data bonus will automatically stop after four months. Equally, subscribers who have been on the network for less than 120 days qualify for the 100% data bonus, even if they switch to another tariff plan.
Bear in mind that all bonuses are valid for 7 days only and if unused will expire. But, recharging within the validity period will extend the expiry of the current bonus.
New subscribers to Globam (Glo Nigeria) are placed on Berekete by default but old customers have to dial *230# to join the new tariff plan.
Glo Berekete voice and data bonus explained
The N600 welcome bonus for new subscribers after a minimum recharge of N100 is clustered. N400 to call all networks at the rate of 70 Kobo per second and N200 converted to 200MB data as 1MB costs N1. The N600 welcome bonus is one-off and does not apply to follow up recharges.
All other recharges have a 700% bonus value that is shared between voice and data. Out of the 700% total bonus, 57% goes to voice and 43% gets allocated to data. In addition, there are some automatic data bonuses in (MBs) and a special data bonus for the first recharge of the month.
Below is a table for all voice and data bonus volumes

Conclusion
Berekete is a good tariff with great rewards, especially for new subscribers. But, the downside is the bonus validity period – 7 days is just too short. It will be a lot better if the validity period gets an extension of an extra 7 day, 14 days is not bad at all. Furthermore, a 50/50 split of voice and data bonus could have been better instead of the current 57/43.
