Nigerian ISP data plans specially made for PC’s are just too expensive to use, but in the case of BlackBerry Internet Service plan, they are relatively cheaper than the normal data plans. So Nigerians have been devising various means to use BIS meant for BlackBerry devices on PC, since BlackBerry is commonly used among Nigerians and the subscription price is relatively cheaper than normal data plans.

In the past, MTN and Airtel BIS are the only one working on PC, but now, Glo BIS too is now working, though Glo BIS data bundle is limited unlike MTN BIS that has unlimited data bundle, but it is better than Airtel BIS. Glo weekly data plan bundle gives you 700MB while Glo monthly data plan bundle gives you 3GB.
