MTN won’t just use your BVN to complete your SIM registration without your consent. You have to give them a go ahead by sending a command via SMS. Send “Yes” to 799 to grant MTN the permission to use your BVN to complete your SIM registration.
I think this will only work for the line you used for your BVN Registration.
If you don’t have a BVN, you will still have to visit MTN office to complete your registration and activate your line back.
I think this concept will reduce the long queue at MTN offices Nationwide. Or what do you think?



mods,make una no vex but e go make sense fr front page...

Will come back when it finally makes fp

I think this is fp worthy. It will really reduce the crowd at mtn office. But someone should confirm this method first

Mod this is the information that is front page worthy, I guess my fellow Nigerians will be wary of letting mtn have access to their bvn. With this FG can conveniently pay the 5k

Even when I tried to update via bvn I still ended up going to their office

What was the response you got when you tried doing the update?

what if after updating yet they send me message that I have to visit their shop? This should be the 5th time MTN is buzzing me with such information

Heye

Thanks for the heads up, I'll do mine right away.

MTN BULLSHIT

MTN with their issues

Done... Let's see how it goes

If it's a trusted information then it will aid in reducing the alarming crowd gathered in all MTN service centres for SIM verification, a welcome development I must say. After seeing the mammoth crowd I jejely go my house go dump the sim.

really

Is the sms free... Abi they go charge money again?

is this for real or 2016 fraud?
