The price hike of MTN recharge card had led MTN consumers to voice their woes and pains. Now, MTN has finally reacted to their customer's complain saying they "has not increase the price of their recharge cards".

According to Adekunle Adebiyi, acting Sales and Distribution Executive of MTN "the cost of recharge cards still remains the value stated on the vouchers. This means that the recharge card has not been increased and the real price is stated on MTN vouchers.
He continues "we hereby use this medium to inform all our subscribers that we have not increased the prices of our recharge cards. Any increment from any quarters across the country on our recharge cards is without our knowledge, and we urge all our customers to always pay the exact value advertised on the cards.

Speaking further, "While we are working assiduously to resolve claims of illegal increase, we apologie to our customers for any inconvenience this might have caused. Alternately, we advise our customers to explore other options of purchasing airtime such as MTN Virtual Top Up (VTU), Diamond Yello Account (DYA), or MTN Auto Top-Up for more information on these please visit www.mtnonline.com/autotopup

I think they should resolve this issue by warning the retailers because you can't tell any retailer to sell recharge card contrary to their will.

What do you have to say about this?

They shouldn't do anything about it at least they've given value to ten naira note

All these south Africa companies ehn? People should ask them y is glo, Etisalat and airtel not selling at 110 etc they are big thieves and scam

I believe MTN knows something about the increment. Why only MTN was increased, why not all the networks? Continue extorting from the masses...

They increased it to pay ncc fine.

60naira gives more value

nigerians are cowards and cant stand up to fight even wen dey are being cheated in their country.

South African companies are usually extortionist and profiteering

Welcome to Nigeria. Don't forget Nigeria has the cheapest data purchase in the world.

Are u sure "Lai" whoever has nothing to do with this MTN?

What does MTN expect.. 10 (One Hundred Naira) Mtn recharge cards are sold for 1000Naira (bulk prize).

Do they expect them to resell @ the rate of 100 per 1?

People still buy recharge cards? Lol...
