The reason is number 4. Those codes belong to MTN subscribers. Remember MTN is only entitled to 60% of any recharge. The rest belongs to their millions of partners who do the major marketing and teck works.

Has MTN issued any statement about these lies?


That card is not from MTN NG. You guys should stop spreading fake news. Card belongs to a VTU dealer.

I agree with your point 2. Airtel has a seperate recharge code for *555# that gives you some 3x what you recharged. Almost cried when i use 1k say make i take sub o, In my subconscious, I accidentally typed *555* instead of *126# for airtel cus i dey used to recharging mtn more often. As i dial finish con send naim my heart first skip. 1k gone, Them gimme their useless 3k call credit wey dey like usain bolt ontop sim wey i no dey use for calls. That was a painful experience for me
Glo also uses *555*, i wanted to sub 2k but the woman only has 500, so i asked her to give me four.. I kept on using *555* unconciously only to check my balance after i fiished loading.. I saw 0.00

Your grammar is very poor. You need a good editor to help you proofread and edit contents. I can help, though.
Yours is terrible

But 10digits can be formulated easily by the average Nigerians. Mtn is confused they will soon go back to their origninal 12 digits.

Is that true, I have been using Airtel and thinking their data services are ok not knowing they have been robbing me, I
need to try 9mobile if that's the case.
crazygod:

Airtel data subscription is worse. I use 9 mobile and airtel together. Though I use 9mobile more, I still recharge my data for airtel more than 2 times a week. I'm talking 3.5g while 2.5g 9mobile can stay for almost a month. Rubbish airtel

You for call customer care na, they'll reverse it. Happened to me and it's like there's a code for reversal now.
Really? Had no idea. I just accepted my fate that day and moved on. I'll definitely keep this in mind incase but i hope there won't be a next time.
