MTN Is At It Again by fingard02k(m): 10:21pm On Jun 14, 2016
This is something I just don't understand in this country. I don't know where else to report or complain about this MTN frequent extortions from MTN.

I'm now scared of leaving or recharging credit on my phone. it all started with MTN backup, afro beat and caller tune deductions. Whenever I recharge they would keep deducting the money till I have nothing left. I've called the customer care severely about it but all they keep telling me was that they're sorry, that they have canceled it yet after some days they start again. I had to go to there twitter page and complain, which they refunded me the money and all the deductions stopped.

Now this night I recharged #200 and tried transferring 100 to my main line (cus I want to subscribe for their night plan) but was shocked by the sms I got that I have insufficient balance. I quickly dialed *556# to check my balance but nothing was there.
The customer care rep told to call back tomorrow..That he is sorry bla bla

I know the money is small but this is daylight robbery. Imagine when they do this to about 500k subscribers.

All I want is my airtime back.

This extortions must stop.

I've being using my mtn line nw since 2009 n my #1 has never been deducted. watch wat u do on ur line bro. Most of u subscribe to this services ignorantly and b4 migrating to any plan, ask for d terms and conditions, most comes with a month free trial of all this services and once the free trial expires I'm always sure a msg is sent telling u that you'll be charged d next month and to stop it do the following but most u choose to delete those msges instantly without even going through them.

Eh it's not about subscribing ignorantly O! I've been as careful as possible with even my Etisalat sim but overtime, they keep charging for what I didn't subscribe for. What about you calling your line and you realise that the Ringtone assigned to your line is not even one of the songs in your phone and they claim you are charged because of the Ringtone! Who subscribe? All of them do that on some SIMs....

Oga d fact dat u think dey haven't touched a dime from from doesn't mean u are doing everything ryt or those who suffer deductions have done something wrong. U want us to believe u've kept track of every single dime on ur line? It's either u don't recharge at all or u have no idea how u are being ripped off. I had about 3gb plus wiped out from my data even though d sim was in my modem dat I haven't used since d last time I checked d data balance.

I'm not a novice in ICT. The main reason I bought that line is for browsing cus I don't like removing my main line. So tell me how I subscribed for caller tune in a line I hardly use for calls. I've called them severally to deactivate everything on that line that has been milking my credit

to deactivate d Mtn backup just test stop to 307.
That 'stop' didn't work then. . after sending it then I got no reply, they stopped deducting that after talking with their twitter rep.
Re: MTN Is At It Again by fingard02k(m): 8:26am On Jun 15, 2016
Their customer care reps are still saying same thing. . that they can't do anything, that they're sorry bla bla even their twitter guy is yet to give me feedback after telling me he will look into it.
