Has anyone noticed that MTN no longer deducts your money whenever you exhaust your data??

I was surprised when my browsing came to a halt when I was surfing the web the other day. Though, I was aware I have a limited data but my thought was whenever I finish using all my data the balance on my MTN line should keep me going. So, when the surfing was halt the first thing I did was to check my balance to know either if I should summarize some curses on MTN but to my greatest surprise my credit was still intact. Only GLO usually does that. Though I still don`t know the sms key and the shortcode one can use in other to continue browsing. The shortcode for GLO one is to sms PAYGO to 777 and the surfing continue.

NOTE: if you are a member of 15mb family just dial *406*5# to subscribe for MTN #5 for 5mb daily.

The effect of $5 Billion

This is the change that we seek.

NCC recently warned(?) MTN, GLO and other networks about deducting customer balance after data subscription comes to an end. According to NCC, only Etisalat was compliant. They informed them that if the same thing persisted, they'd institute another fine. I guess they all are compliant now.

This was an easy thing all networks could have done. Instead they took the shorter route which not only saved them the necessary work, but enriched them unjustly when data subscription runs to zero.

AIRTEL Nigeria has just introduced weekend data bundle capped at 1024mb (1gb) for just #100 only.. Dial *474*1# to activate! Dial *140# to check data. It can be use only on weekends (Friday – Sunday). You can now download whatever you want to download and stream online. not all airtel sims though

SailorXY:
Hmmm
How do you browse with 5mb

sirwilly1:
Pls, how do you check your data balance? And how do you opt out the N5 daily service?

harsysky:
Maybe, just maybe the airtym left on your phone isn't upto 500 and above. MTN don't want small , small money now , cos they've gat debt to pay.

I use MTN , but I don't trust them for one bit. Not after they swallowed my 800 naira airtym...

Joshkid:

dmcdad:
Bros no vex oooooo. Wetin 10MB wan reach you do?

Lizabeth25:
The 15mb code is only limited to MTN Pulse customers

oramaster:
Good one. Its always nice to catch these networks sometimes most especially MTN. It just makes you feel like a hero for millions of naija ppl they have defrauded. I for one dont like to subscribe to any of their offers because MTN NEVER BLESSES YOU WITHOUT ADDING SORROW. Bible students who else that you know that does this? DEV...... . I ones told this to a customer service guy one time, the guy one laff die

just2endowed:
