But sometimes, you just utterly wonder where some of these third parties get your mobile numbers, if not from the service providers themselves.

Just like the op suggests, best way is to use Apps, to block the number disturbing you, but what if the message doesn't have a number? Like Airtel, they send tons of messages with "HOT DEALS".

i was thinking i was the only 1 that recieves this airtel hot deals stuff..... Airtel no dey run out of deal .....

That dnd even. Serves as a keylogger that can still people's password and key information. Therefore, I totally disagree with you

Youngzedd:

If only you can recommend a stronger call app dat can block most of those spam messages.
Me wey vex say I no want any msg u think I m not aware of missing out on general info msgs especially on security.
Adon care. I can get my msgs from other source but not from all these local networks like MTN. Glo etc

Please how can I opt out from DND

Now I understand why I didn't get reschedule sms from an airline. I need to opt out.

I use MIUI 7 which comes with the app by default. True caller is very good in blocking annoying calls.

See Reasons Why You Shouldn't Subscribe To DND (Do Not Disturb)

This thread is to enlighten people about DND and how subscribing to it can be a bad decision.

This have its advantages, but believe me the disadvantages is higher to the advantage.


It's obvious that those who really disturb our cell phones are the network providers, this is because you will hardly block their messages unlike other short code service you can use your call and message blocker app to silent forever.

What exactly is DND?

The Do-Not-Disturb service allows customers to opt out of receiving promotional messages for 3rd Party services (Bulk SMS, VAS promos, etc.)

Are promotional messages for MTN services included in DND?

NO. DND service will only be introduced for 3rd party services e.g. VAS, Bulk SMS etc.


We all know that we receive a lot of important messages starting from our church, wedding, school, Job interview, events etc.

What Nigerians really need is a block or DND which will also give option to option out of network providers promo messages.

Dont miss out crucial information just because of DND.

The best way to avoid unsolicited messages and calls is to use call and message blocker app.

You have to understand this before taking action on their DND to avoid missing out a lot of information been passed on daily basis.

Optioning out or subscribing to DND simply means you will not receive all messages sent to your line using bulk SMS and other third party application which maybe important to you.

NCC and the rest misinformed us, what we really need is an option to option out of network providers unsolicited messages and calls.


Pass the information across.

It's for the best that they come up with this even though it has some lapses. Those third party agents were abusing especially those that hack into some sites to get people's phone number

They don't hack anything, only the insiders sells the phone numbers codedly to highest bidder.

The best thing is to use true caller to block all messages and calls reported an spam.

true caller is useless.

what am telling u is its only out network provider that can help us from unwanted sales, adds msgs. I m not illiterate. I know how to get a good call app. The only way ti solve this issue is to use ncc to fight Naija network providers cos if u tell dem to release you, they won't

You suggested true caller but how many persons actually use smarphones?
Are you aware that there are some persons still using java and Nokia Symbian phones?
So would you suggest true caller to those persons

Symbian phone have an app for that. Those using phones that doesn't support apps have to live with it for now until they upgrade.

Thanks man

It is for all networks bro..... The inventor of this thread is totally biase and making it peculiar to MTN of which it is a NCC directive..... For anyone who cares, kindly text STOP to 2442 to block all 3rd party notifications!

mtn do not disturb is a total bullshit in some way. The moment i saw mtn promotional messages will not be blocked, i knew the whole DND thing is a scam.

Deanny:

Send ALLOW to 2442

New way to deactivate DND.
