List of USSD Codes and SMS Keywords For Sharing and Gifting Glo Data Plans

Recently, I published how to share and gift glo data bundles on the hsi glo selfcare portal. Today, I am delighted to inform you that Glo customers no longer need to log on to http://hsi.glo.com to share or gift a plan. They can now do it with SMS and USSD. Particularly useful if using a phone or device with a small screen.
