Step 1: The Pre-Requisite Prep (Because Free Data Isn't Actually Free)
- Been an Airtelian for at least 3 months: This is like the entrance exam for the 1GB loan club. No newbies allowed (unless they come bearing gifts, of course).
- Have a balance that would make a beggar blush: Okay, maybe not that low, but you do need enough balance to cover the service charge. Don't worry, it's not a kidney-selling kind of fee, but it's not free pizza either.

Method 1: The USSD Dialer Dance
