U are a funny human being...

U are just playing around with words.... the guys is complaining that he received text... of course he’s talking about the number not the plastic SIM card

Bankowner:


You are the funny one my brother. You don’t have the capacity to interpret or give meaning to what the OP has asked because you are not in his head. He asked for clarification because he doesn’t understand and that is exactly what I gave him.

TVTKOKO:
Presently going through similar problem.
The sim I've been using all my life just all of a sudden started storing strange contacts.
Detected it when i was using Whatsapp. I wanted to limit my status views and then boom!i began to see strange contacts i never stored!
Hmmm!!

advanceDNA:

Thank you sir

whatmoreng:

Any idea why? I have noticed same on my contact list

Bishopwizzy:
It's like you logged someone's google mail in your phone. Those contacts could be the persons contact from the email.

@Bankowner ....
That was how i bought an Etisalat line some years back and started getting credit alerts from two different banks i don’t use..... I was damn confused at first but then I realised someone else had used it before me. I even started getting messages from police officers. An officer once called me to congratulate me on my promotion to Inspector!!! I later stopped using the line though.....
Also, after my younger brother travelled to Canada, Mtn resold his line. Guess what?.... The new owner started recharging his line from my brother’s account. He was buying N10k credit. Sometimes N5k. My brother got several email alerts and later removed the line from his account.....

Nobody has used the SIM card you have, the number is a reassigned number that someone has relinquished and network operators are obligated to put these numbers back into use within 90 days.

Good evening guys, something strange happened today. I got a message from one of this betting site that I had a coupon of 1,200 that is about to expire, but I couldn't remember playing a bet on that site. Out of curiousity I had to give it a try and see using the link attached to the SMS, surprisingly it was true. I actually used the coupon but I began to wonder and tried to remember at what time did I registered on that site, so I checked the transaction history and found an account number with a particular bank, only the last four digits of the account was displayed, the account is not mine and I don't get messages from the bank or any funny call(s) yet. At that point it dawned on me that someone had previously used the supposedly new SIM card that I bought and registered around last year ending.

So my point now is this, why did this particular network re-sell a SIM card that was previously used by another person? Who knows the kind of person that had previously used the SIM card. Please NCC needs to look into this matter, before someone will buy a SIM that was previously used by a criminal, kidnappers or terrorist

Quintuple:

How was the guy managed to get your brother's password/PIN for transaction validation?
Just curious!!

Shuzzi:
I doubt it cause at times she receives debit alerts.

If you wanna recharge the line that’s linked to your account via your bank, you don’t need a pin.....

Eg: Polaris bank is *833*amount#..... the credit recharge will just enter your main line.... You don’t need a password..... Other banks have their codes too..... That’s a flaw in the system.....

Alexdon200089:
It's a norm in telecommunication to recycle lines, reason is that telecoms are paying for dormant lines to federal government.... It is mandatory that you don't keep your line dormant for more than 3months,else it will be recycled...Truth be told there is nothing like new or virgin lines in the system of telecomms..Every line you bought now has been used by someone else before you.. No Telecommunication company is producing new line, it's all a recycled lines..
If you know that you don't want your line recycled you have to activate what MTN call KMN(keep my number) it comes in 3category with charges(1year,2years and 3years)...
If you encounter such ugly incident, just know it's not your fault neither it's the company...it's the fault of the former not to retrieve the line before ot was reassigned back to the system
Tell your bro to go to the telecommunication company of the line and know if the line was actually registered by him or by someone else..If it was registered by him, then there is no problem..If it's by someone else i suggest he ask for reregistration of the line to be primarily assigned to him as the bonfide owner of the line|In cases where lines are not registered by the owner is advisable you don't go further using it for your personal documentation...

NB:I work with MTN�

Emmyreal4:
