MTN New Charge? by DaInferno(op): 1:15pm On Sep 27, 2020
I use MTN,
I just bought an Airtel Data Sim so I could surf more and tried to text "GET" to "141" to get better discounts as instructed from the Welcome SMS I received from them(Airtel).

But on sending the SMS, I had not changed my preferred sim to Airtel in other to send the message,it was still on MTN.

MTN prompted me almost immediately that;
Dear customer, you seem to have sent a wrong message but u can dial 131 to... (I believe you all know the polite Grammer and stuff)

But the issue is, they charged me #15.36 for a message that wasn't delivered, a message that is supposed to be free and isn't affiliated to them in anyway! I had to go to my app and thoroughly look at it to be sure it's not a mistake,here's also a screenshot

make una help my confusion; was the charge for the mistake or is it to service our foreign debts, I really don't get

and person fit sue them? undecided

Call them to complain and if they refuse to refund u, call NCC on 622.
Thank me later.

I have used NCC to get refund from both Glo (recharge card issue) and mtn (data unlawfully taken).
