HOW TO SHARE DATA ON AIRTEL
Sharing Data on Airtel also doesn't come with much hassle as you think. With a little knowledge on some USSD codes, you can get it done within minutes. Follow me as I list out steps on how to share Data on the Airtel Network (that is, from an Airtel user to another Airtel user or customer). See the steps below;
Step 1: On your Dialer, dial the USSD code, *312# and wait for the Next screen to pop up.
Step 2: Now on this screen, you are granted the ability to do anything related to Data, be it buying and other stuff. Navigate to the next screen of options by choosing the ‘next’ option which usually comes with an asterisk symbol attached to it.
Step 3: Select Option 14 on the new list of options, which is ‘Gifting And Sharing’.
Step 4: On the new screen, you will see a list of options. Option one gives you the choice of changing your Transfer PIN which is usually 1234 by Default. If you don't want to change it, simply ignore it and go to other options.
Step 5: Since you want to ‘Share Data’, select option 4 which is Data Me2U. You will be taken to the next screen where you enter the recipient's Airtel phone number .
Step 6: After entering the phone number you want to share your Data with, you will be asked the amount of Data you are willing to share with the contact.
Step 7: Now finally, Enter your Transfer PIN to initiate the transfer. Please note that the default transfer PIN is 1234, if you made changes to this PIN, then you will have to use the one you created, Make sure you can remember it.
Lastly, Me2U Data sharing works when you have a Data Bundle activated on your line, it automatically deducts from your Data Balance and sends to the receiver, if you want to send Data to someone without touching your active Data Plan, simply choose Data Gifting and follow on screen instructions, which isn't different from Data Sharing. Stay Blessed.
