How to Check BIS Expiry Date, MB (Glo, MTN, Airtel & Etisalat)

Checking the status (expiry date and remaining data in MB) of your BIS on Airtel, Etisalat, Glo and MTN is very easy. You only need to dial some USSD codes or send a particular keyword to a shortcode to know the date your BIS expires. Yes, it is that easy but once you don’t know something, you don’t know it.

I am writing this post because I has this challenge myself not too long ago. I was trying to get the date my Etisalat BIS would expire but could not easily. I searched the internet and most of what I saw has to do with normal internet data bundles. I had to call Etisalat before I could do it myself. Now I want to share it with everyone.
