Does Glo Midnight Plan Affect My Normal Data? Find Out Now
We get it—you’re trying to save data by using Glo’s Midnight Plan. But somehow, you wake up and see your normal data balance has reduced. So, does Glo’s Midnight Plan affect your normal data? The answer is simple: only if you’re not careful.
Let’s explain it clearly in a way that makes sense—Naija-style.
What Is the Glo Midnight Plan?
Glo’s Midnight Plan is a low-cost night browsing package that works from 12:00 AM to 5:00 AM. It's designed for data-heavy activities like downloads, streaming, and research—without burning your wallet.
Common Glo Midnight Plans:
| Plan | Data Volume | Price | Validity Period | Activation Code |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Night Plan 1 | 500MB | ₦50 | 12 AM – 5 AM (1 night) | *777# → Data → Night |
| Night Plan 2 | 1GB | ₦100 | 12 AM – 5 AM (1 night) | *777# → Data → Night |
When Your Main Data Is Safe
Your regular data will not be touched if:
-
You browse between 12 AM and 5 AM only
-
Your Midnight Plan is active and has not finished
-
Background apps are restricted from using data during the session
When Your Main Data Might Be Used
Main data kicks in when:
-
Your Midnight Plan is used up before 5 AM
-
You browse before 12:00 AM or after 5:00 AM
-
You forget to activate the Night Plan before browsing
-
Background apps or downloads spill over into regular hours
Smart Tips to Avoid Data Mix-Up
-
Turn off mobile data at 4:59 AM to prevent accidental overuse
-
Always check if your Midnight Plan is still active (1270# or *777#)
-
Disable auto-updates on your device
-
Set up data usage limits to warn you if your main plan is being touched
-
Use your phone’s data usage tracker to monitor which plan is working

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q1: Can I use the Glo Night Plan without any regular data?
Yes. You don’t need normal data to activate or use the Night Plan.
Q2: Will I get a notification when my Night Plan is exhausted?
Not always. It’s best to dial 1270# to check your current balance.
Q3: Can I buy the plan multiple times in one night?
Yes, you can renew it after it’s used up—as long as it’s still between 12 AM and 5 AM.
Final Thoughts
Glo’s Midnight Plan is a lifesaver for late-night data users in Nigeria. But if you don’t monitor your usage or activate it properly, your regular data can vanish quietly. Always browse between 12 AM and 5 AM, confirm your night bundle is active, and restrict background data use.
Be wise. Browse smart. Don’t let your main data suffer because of small mistakes!
