You're lucky, they zapped my 1K and send ERROR. When I checked my data balance, I was disappointed.

Before you subscribe a message has to be sent to your number first from etisalat .
Re: Etisalat Just Scammed Me. by sorextee(m): 3:49pm On May 16, 2015
If u were actually on the 200mb plan, u needed to have opted out, before loading d 1k, nd dialing dat code hereafter.. probably ur data autorenewed...

U people should stop saying etisalat scammed you jare, i'm pretty sure the fault is from u. Something wey I still subscribe today. If them collect ur 1k, walahi i go fit hold on from morning reach midnight until cc pick my call, moreover u dont even need to stay more dan 30mins tops. U wont get a solution here, if u r sure ur not on any plan that autorenews( all plans autorenew) and u have the 1gb for 1k message, oga just enter any of their centres, them go rectify their own fuckup sharp sharp. Meanwhile don't believe anything some of these customer care people say, most of them are ignorant and plain clueless

This's the most plausible explanation for that. I'm also on the 200MB plan and when I received the same message as the OP I wanted to try it but couldn't because I didn't know how to unsubscribe first. If I made the mistake of toping my account with N1,000 they would have taken it immediately to give me 200MB. OP, I believe that's what happened to you.

These service operators will keep on treating us like shit till NUC does something about it.

Try and contact their customer service.

Op automatic renewal is what happened to your line. Next time if you want to subscribe for a new plan, opt out of the previous one by dialling *229*0# first. Same thing happened to someone I know and she called customer care to complain. She was refunded of the money and did the new subscription. You can try your luck and see how it goes.

Thanks jare. I was about saying this now.

I also know of a friend this happened to. She was refunded her 2000naira airtime within 24hours.

Call etisalat customer care, you'll be refunded your airtime in no time wink
