MTN Nigeria has confirmed it recorded a glitch on its system that resulted in a host of subscribers enjoying free 3GB data bundles.

HumanIPO revealed on Monday MTN’s customers had noticed they had not been charged for the substantial data bundle, but the the network operator had remained silent on the issue.

Chineze Gbenga-Oluwatoye, senior manager of corporate communications at the corporate services division of MTN Nigeria, has now told HumanIPO the network’s data charging interface was affected.

“A series of service disruptions occurred which affected the charging interface for this data service,” Gbenga-Oluwatoye said HumanIPO.

The company also confirmed HumanIPO’s earlier report that the glitch had been fixed.

Chineze said: “These issues have since been resolved and the regular charging process restored.”

According to the latest figures released by the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC), MTN at the end of the first quarter had 22,725,089 subscribers, meaning
the loss could be substantial http://www.humanipo.com/news/29286/mtn-nigeria-confirms-system-glitch-blames-service-disruptions/

may your systems continue to experience glitches every day... lol...

hakunajay: may your systems continue to experience glitches every day... lol...

amen

why etisalat and airtel no dey experience dis kind tin nah

lol!! @ least...twas fun while it lasted!!

Mtn is not straight in their dealing with subscribers, recently they caped their data limit for blackberry users and just recently I noticed they blocked downloads from certain sites which as far as the subscriber is concerned has been paid for..
They give reasons why u can't and should not tether blackberry service with other devices, claiming and I quote "blackberry service is exclusively for blackberry devices".
They sweet talk u to stay with their network telling the subscriber how bad the services of other networks are out there and when u finally pay for subscription for any of the blackberry services hey limit your usage and cap the sites you can download from.

Well I got news for MTN staff and their crafty services, NOTHING LASTS FOREVER!!! What goes around comes around.

If the Roman empire can fall, then u knw the rest...
