How I Got Scammed By Etisalat Marketers Today by blackfase(op): 10:09pm On Aug 25, 2015
I was on my way out of Festac today, through the Agboju Market thorough-fare when I was accosted by an Etisalat lady marketer with all d trappings & paraphenelia of Etisalat, who thrusted 3 simpacks my way saying "you can have them, they're free". After collecting, hardly had I taken 2 steps when she reached out again about registering. I told her not to bother but her persistence made me reconsider while she was at same time mumbling its got N1000 worth of airtime, 40mb of data but will hav to activate it with a N100 recharge. She later retrieved a pack thereby leaving me with two. She took me to an eighteen sitter bus & I went through all the process & was told it'l go active by 8pm.
Well, roll forward to 8pm & your guess is as good as mine.
Moral of this?....watch out for these bandits on the prowl. Im sure there r many of them scattered around the metropolis. And keeps me wondering if Etisalat is complicit with this shit playing out.

Bro.. It has happened to me before, it was Airtel, they even told me I should buy for my wife(not knowing I was single) that the call tariff would be cheaper. Bro... The network provider didn't send them they were trying to make sales... I'm waiting for the day I would meet them again, I will collect 4sims without looking back!
