I have migrated to G-BAM and have been debited the N10 daily fee, why am I still charged when I browse Facebook?
Facebook is only free between 1am and 6am daily.

I browse between 1am and 6am and still get charged for Facebook, what can be wrong?
You have clicked an external link – for instance a video or another website while on Facebook. This takes you outside Facebook and that link is not free. You will be charged. For example, if you click a YouTube video during this period, you will be charged for it.

I browse between 1am and 6am and inside facebook only but still get charged for facebook, what can be wrong?
During the login process, Facebook encrypts your user data (username and password) to prevent your account from unauthorized access. During the login process, even our network cannot read the data between your phone and Facebook, so the log in process is charged. This is usually not a large amount of data and so will not cost too much – however the amount will vary from device to device. After log in, you will continue to browse for free.

I have subscribed to a data bundle on my device, will I still enjoy free facebook browsing?
No, unless you change the configuration of your device to WAP or Glo Direct.

What if I decide to use the Facebook app/client on my device (such as the iPhone app or the Android app), will I be charged?
If browsing occurs outside of the Facebook URLs, you will be charged the respective rates for data.

What if I connect my phone as a modem to my PC and browse Facebook, will I be charged?
We will not charge you for Facebook, but because your PC will have other applications running (such as Windows Update, Anti-virus update etc), your computer may browse and download other data that will be outside of Facebook. We will charge you for these.
