You can either take it to MTN office and complain or visit AccessBank to lodge the complain |

Story! You have nothing to worry about. It just means it's a line that has been recycled by the network, and it was the line that was tied to the former user's bank account. There was a time my old line was recycled. I didn't know. It was the line attached to a bank account that was dormant. Later I started using the account but was not getting any alerts. I then realize the new owner of the line was getting the alert. It took me another 2 months or so to finally go to the bank to ask them to change my account phone number to my new line, that I was not the owner of the old line again. No single money was stolen from me all through that period 2 Likes |

MegaPlayBoy:Flee from evil in its entirety. Tomorrow,temptations due to need might push you into trying to do something funny with the sim or som1 you already told will do. Better just go to MTN office like som1 said. |

MegaPlayBoy: Take it to MTN. If you registered, your face and address is already there. Although it shouldn't be possible to get another person's alert on your sim card, it just further expose the security lapses of Access bank. |

MegaPlayBoy: No. Don't destroy it. Just register it properly with your name. The line was recycled after the former owner failed to use it for 90 days. That's usually the case of all recycled SIM. You have no offence buying, register and use a SIM card of your choice. A very good example of this: The DSS, President Buhari's daughter ( Hanan Buhari) vs Anthony Okolie Mr Anthony won the case in court and the DSS was fined 10m Naira 4 Likes |

OP, I work in a telcoms company and I can bodly tell U there's nothing to be bothered about..that is what happens when lines are recycled..meaning U bought a line that was reproduced becos d former owner was not using his line and it got deactivated after 180days..ignore the messages..true caller may also be displaying d former owners name when people call your line.d most important thing is that you have gotten the line legally and registered it in your own name ..U are safe trust me. 4 Likes |

Re: I Keep Receiving strange Bank Alerts On My New Sim by FlordFlorez(m): 5:50pm On Jul 22, 2020 |
Why the fuss? This has happened to me before. Infact in two occations where someone else was receiving my alerts from my previous MTN line that got lost, that i didn't retrieve and the other one which is recent and im still conrently receiving that person's alerts. I later when to bank to lay complain and the number (my lost line) was terminated and my new line was introduced to my acct. The person has probably not notice. When they do, he/she would go to their bank to correct it. U dont need to be worried. |
Re: I Keep Receiving strange Bank Alerts On My New Sim by correctyourself(m): 5:51pm On Jul 22, 2020 |
MegaPlayBoy: Maybe you bought the line use by another customer who lost his/her phone line that is attached to the bank account and has not gone to Chang it with the bank, neither go to MTN to retrieve it because of some requirements needed for the retrieval, hence the alert is still coming to the line. Simple. |
Re: I Keep Receiving strange Bank Alerts On My New Sim by Academicwizman(m): 5:51pm On Jul 22, 2020 |
sweettease: If you destroy the SIM, it will still bear your identity until six months when the telecom operator decided to sell it to another person again. To be safe, report to access bank customer care. They will stop sending you the alert. MTN cannot solve the issue. The previous user of the SIM registered it with his/her bank. 1 Like |

Re: I Keep Receiving strange Bank Alerts On My New Sim by CaptainFM1: 5:52pm On Jul 22, 2020 |
Report the case to MTN, Access bank and the Nigeria Police. Also do keep every records / statements you submitted for future reference. All lines are now rentals, so you can held for transactions or activities you know nothing about. |

Re: I Keep Receiving strange Bank Alerts On My New Sim by kennykg(m): 5:54pm On Jul 22, 2020 |
Don't be scared it's a recycled sim. Simply visit the bank with your valid id and the sim pack as proof of ownership so the number would be unlinked from the account. It's simple |
Re: I Keep Receiving strange Bank Alerts On My New Sim by slenjaman(m): 5:55pm On Jul 22, 2020 |
I once had an airtel sim card that I do receive unknown bank alert too. I didn't do anything though before I stopped using the sim card. However, since you registered it in your name, you need to make a formal complaint either at the bank or to the telecommunication company. MegaPlayBoy: |
Re: I Keep Receiving strange Bank Alerts On My New Sim by ajailer(m): 5:55pm On Jul 22, 2020 |
you better follow ppl's advice that you should not destroy the sim cos months from now, DSS fit dey ontop your matter.... report it to the police first, collect an affidavit, from there proceed to the bank with the police affidavit in case matter dey for the account then lastly take the sim card to MTN office make dem give you another one.... don't mind the money you will spend o, it might save you from sleeping detention, more money and bad reputation. 1 Like |
