I remember the phone booth at the state Library, Calabar, during my Unical days in the early 2ks. Ah! The memories - my first main relationship started with the last 150 units on the card.

Pity we didn't end up together...

Glad i know this card. Is there a museum where old items like this are being put on display for informative purposes to the younger ones to show nigeria's growth through specific periods?

There was this myth that if you freeze the card in a refrigerator, it will increase the call credit on it. Naija sha. cheesy
Re: NITEL CARD: Have You Seen This Before? (pic) by pragmatistm(m): 3:43pm On Jul 08, 2015
We used that at NITEL phone booths when there was only NITEL nationwide. Ha! those good old days when we will queue up to use the phone and you will pay someone to use his card at the booth.

And they used to tell that if we put it in a very cold freezer that the units used will automatically come back and you can use it again over and over. I never tried it but needless to say it was all a fluke
Re: NITEL CARD: Have You Seen This Before? (pic) by urchmanx(m): 6:45pm On Jul 08, 2015
I never forget another trick that if you put the card half way. The units will not court but u have to be an expert to do that. I remember using this card to call my poople in U.S. Then because my mom never allowed us to use the landline and person needs his personal parole.
It seems today is remembrance of oldie days.
