Baba he fuss is that for every 20 seconds 4naira will be gone. Now imagine if the network is slow to respond, and it took you 5mins. calculate 4naira per sec for 5mins na..
No be say money dey dis country nd even thou d money dey self na people at d top dey chop am... Now am starting to see why IPOB came into the conner.

My dear, I'm even sure 9mobile charges more than 4naira for every 15seconds because the way my airtime always disappear fiam after every transaction is alarming. I need to call their customer care.

Walahi GTB has being charging me b4 both on my account and my etisalat line per transaction. Most people dont know this since because maybe they barely use the USSD code

This govt is here to ruin us
I use Zenith on my MTN, there was no charges except once when I checked my account balance. While Stanbic charged me when I tried using it on same MTN. I just noticed my mobile line balance was reducing and stopped when it got exhausted, so I purposely recharged to confirm, na so I leave ussd service for my stanbic.
Time to leave that of Zenith too, I'm cool with my app or internet banking

Shebi you people all voted for change. Here is the change. The real change. Nigerians ain't seen anything yet.. It will end in tears.. Oil prices are dropping and the money to fund luxurious lifestyles of Nigerian politicians must be kept up. So other ways of generating money is to keep on impoverishing Nigerians in the already hard economy. What a clueless government we have. We thought Jonathan was worse. Not knowing this Buhari administration is the worse of them all. Our governors are spending monies they cannot generate. Take away Lagos, Ogun and maybe Ondo. Other state governors are so lazy. They will go to Abuja and beg for oil money. Now Abuja is telling them to go and make money. No oil money again. Hence the multiple taxation of citizens. We never jam.

I stopped using gtb ussd when I noticed 9mobile charge me outragesly for every reply I get per transaction. Meaning in one transfer I get like 4 text alerts and they charge #4 per each.

I dumped that service. I'm good with token and internet banking.
