Glo Nigeria has an internet bundle plan caled Always Micro and it costs only N1000 per month and limited to 150 MB. What this simply means that when you subscribe to the plan with a cost of N1000, you would get 150MB quota limit for a 1month. So if you exhaust the time limit which is 1 month or you finish your 150MB quota, then the plan will expire.
Now this is a great service for people who want to use the internet for doing basic things daily like checking your email or Facebook updates. If you are one of those who do serious downloads and watch streaming videos from Youtube or Daily Motion, then you probably move to a higher plan.
Other things professional internet users can do with Glo's Always Micro include: Blogging, Forex trading, Article writing and web uploads.

Does Glo always Micro really last for one month?
Yes it does as long as you don't download more than 150MB but personally I use it up within a week or less if there is a lot of work to be done using the internet.

Things you can do to conserve your Quota minimize your data usage:
- Disconnect the internet when you are not using it since other processes may be downloading updates behind your back
- Don't use chat as it uses up a lot of data
- Disable pictures in your browser if possible
- Use Google Chrome browser since it uses content
- Don't patronize heavy sites like Youtube or music sites
- Using the service on your mobile device works saves your more than using it on desktop

Things you will need to get on this plan:
- A gsm phone
- A glo registered sim card
- Airtime credit balance of at least N1000

How to subscribe to the 1 month Glo always Micro plan:
You can subscribe to this plan by sending the message "13" to 127 without the quotes
You should receive a confirmation sms that it has been activated. Now you can connect and start browsing.
You can inquire for other details from 127 such as your balance and validity period by sending "info" to the same 127
