Phones / Re: MTN - Corporate Scam Artist! by smiler(f): 4:24pm On Mar 22, 2015
Why do we have an agency called NCC? Why do we have an agency for consumer rights when they all obviously don't know their job descriptions. That's why companies like MTN and DSTV can do what they like in this country and get away with it.
Phones / MTN - Corporate Scam Artist! by smiler(f): 2:35pm On Mar 22, 2015
“Congratulations! Today marks your anniversary day on the MTN network. You can now enjoy 200% bonus on your first recharge within the next 30 days”

MTN sent this message to my husband on Monday 9/3/2015. Ordinary I would have gone awwww that’s so nice instead i was infuriated with the sms. I am still infuriated with MTN.

I got a similar sms from MTN on Friday 13/2/2015 but mine was worded a bit differently. MTN mentioned that for my 13th anniversary on their network I will get a 500% bonus on my first recharge before the end of the month. I decided to give it a try after confirming through MTN customer care that the sms indeed came from them.

The unfortunate thing is that almost 2 weeks since I recharged I am yet to get the promised 500% bonus. Several calls, emails and promises after, I am yet to receive the bonus that MTN promised to give to me when I recharge.

My take on this;

Over the years MTN has come to understand the Nigerian market. They have come to realise that we don’t know that as consumers we have rights. It is only in Nigeria that MTN can get away with their level of poor service and astronomical charges. It is only in Nigeria that MTN can send promotional sms with promises of bogus bonuses and not live up to their promises because they know that Nigerians will not do anything about it. We will endure, ignore, complain and/or abuse MTN but we will never do anything about it. We will never stand up to demand for our rights. To make matters worse we even make excuses for their poor perfomance.

I believe its time we begin to know our rights in this country. No not just know them, We have to demand for our rights.

MTN owes me 500% bonus and I will keep demanding for it until I get it. After all I didn’t ask for it. They came to me so they have to fulfill their promise.

This smells like a scam! A corporate scam. Really do I need to chase MTN to live up to their promise if they had regard for me as a customer? I believe they had no plan to give the promised bonus in the first.

I am uploading this caricature picture of the MTN logo because this is exactly how I feel about MTN and I believe it is time we let them know who actually runs the show here.

Stand up against corporate scam. Stand up against MTN!

I would like to hear from you if you have suffered in the hands of MTN.

Do you want better services from MTN? Then demand for it. Make your voice heard.

Awesome God, how great your faithfulness and love towards us your chuldren. Father we bless you for the testimonies. For new babies and new pregnancies.

The only God who can and will bypass protocols to bring joy and laughter to His children father we thank you.

You are God and you alone can get a woman pregnant without a cycle, you alone can get a woman pregnant without sperms. You have done it in the past you are still able to do it again great and mighty protocol breaker. What protocol are we even talking about here, same protocols you put in place? Its no big deal.

You are God, you are not man, yes you are! The fig tree wanted to mock you, the fig tree spoke to you for trusting in the natural law that you put in place you spoke back and cursed it telling it that there is a greater law, supernatural law.

So far it appears that the natural law of conception has failed some of us, years of trusting it as yielded no fruits.

Brothers and sisters dont let it mock you again speak back to it. There is a greater law. Its the supernatural law that comes straight from the throne of God. How do you find and apply this law. The word of God contains it. Seek it, find it. When you have then do as it says without fear.

Mark 11:12-14 verse 14 started with "Jesus answered and said......." the tree spoke to Jesus the same way your period speaks to you every month. The way that childless home speaks to you every day. Its time you answered it Just like Jesus did.

How?

Mark 11:20-24.

Welcome back everyone; oldtimers, newbies and those who just stop by to read, its a new dawn its a new beginning and God is with us.

God bless y'all in Jesus name, amen.

Step Across the Faith Line

Good morning Y'all, have a blessed day.

Below is a devotional from Kenneth Copeland.


"And being not weak in faith, [Abraham] considered not his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sarah's womb: He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God."
(Romans 4:19-20)


In the years I've spent living by faith, there's something I've learned to do that helps me receive from God in the toughest of situations. It's something I call stepping over the faith line.

A faith line is what you need when you want God to do the "impossible" in your life. It's what you need when you want to be firm in your faith and yet you keep wavering back and forth between your circumstances and God's promises--believing first one, then the other.

It's what can make you like faithful Abraham. You know, Abraham had natural facts to deal with just like we do. He knew there was no natural way for God's promise to him to come true.

Yet the Word says Abraham considered not his own body. In other words, Abraham ignored the natural evidence around him and believed only God's promise.

Somewhere he stepped across the line of faith.

He made an irreversible decision to go with the Word of God. He made a final commitment. He chose to step past the point of no return. And if you and I are ever going to see God do the impossible in our lives, we're going to have to do the same thing!

How do you draw that faith line?

Begin with the Word. Search the promises of God and purposely believe what He has said, and is saying, about your need. Meditate on those promises until faith rises in your heart.

Then draw the line of faith. Draw it in your mind and heart. Draw it across the floor in your prayer room. Say, "In the presence of God, in the presence of all the angels in this room, and in the devils face, I am stepping across the line of faith. From this moment on, I consider this matter done. From this day forward, I give God the praise and the glory in the Name of Jesus.

From that moment on, speak only as if your miracle has already happened. Turn your back on the problems, on the doubts, and turn your face toward Jesus.

God will do the impossible in your life. Dare to step across the faith line!

Scripture Study: Romans 4:13-21

Glory be to you O Lord. Congrats Gen Buhari God will perfect what He alone began. Strengthen madam.

@Tami&Tara my dear, smiley who says TTC is not on my mind? I am not a super woman of faith, like I always say I take one day at a time in His presence. I have walked several paths, some high some low, but one thing has remained sure "God's Faithfulness.

I have accused God, I blamed Him for everything at one time smiley.

In April 2008, I went into preterm labour @ 24 weeks and I eventually lost the baby after delivery. This happened 6 years into our marriage and it was through ICSI. On that delivery bed, while they were struggling to ensure that I don't bleed, readying blood for transfusion, trying to help my baby breath smiley I started singing to God almighty. Eventually they gave up I asked for my baby she was handed over and she peacefully died in my arms. I wept, but in beautiful worship to God i called her "CHIMAMAKA" meaning my God is good. But I accused Him after that, I said take this desire to have children from me if YOU don't want to give us. I was angry with God, I stopped reading my bible I stopped praying.

He didn't leave me, he didn't forsake me. One day He took me down memory lane and reminded me of His faithfulness. So over time, I have learnt to just let God be God. Even when I don't understand, I turn to Him for encouragement. I have also found that praying and encouraging others helps me a lot. It's almost 6 years after no conception yet and no baby yet my hope is stronger than it was February 2002. I perfectly understand your question, but I tell you there is no woman who is TTC that does not have it on their mind, that's why we are here in the first place, but it's how we manage it that matters. I have learnt to encourage myself in God. I have seen it all and done it all and I am back to The only one who will never fail me.

@Tami&Tara, I pray that God will strengthen you and grant you the desires of your heart, please don't get weary of praying or reading God's word. I pray against delay in conception in Jesus name, I pray that In spite of the existence of any medical reports that you will conceive now in Jesus name, amen. I pray that the Holy Spirit who is the actualiser of God's plan will come upon you now and quicken all dead cells in you and your DH bodies for conception to take place now in Jesus name, amen. It is well with you and YOU will testify of God's goodness SOON, amen!

God bless you my sister Alwaystrue. You have reached the place of manifestation. The WORD says "faith is the substance of things HOPED for......faith without hope is baseless. I believe you have LOVE, because LOVE is the oil that faith runs on.
You are ready.

Loving father, almighty father who does not withhold anything good from His children, I pray this morning O God that you bypass process for my sister Alwaystrue. There is nothing impossible for you to do and there is nothing impossible for her because she believes in you.

You testified about Abraham that he will bring up his children to walk in your ways, I know you have the same testimony about this daughter of yours, so Lord trust her with those children you have set aside for her. Let your will be done in her family as it is in heaven in Jesus name, I pray amen.

@Alwaystrue with revelation comes greater manifestation. You are blessed beyond measure.

@ All good morning.

“ Is not My word like a fire?” says the Lord, “And like a hammer that breaks the rock in pieces? (Jeremiah 23:29 NKJV)
[i][/i][font=Lucida Sans Unicode][/font].

As you eat and digest the word of God daily, you will begin to see the manifestation of it as described in the text above. Fire burns down and anything left after the fire will be broken down with the hammer.

This morning I pray that every obstacle (medical, spiritual or just plain unexplained) will get the fire and hammer "that is" the word of God.

God bless and keep y'all.

Better Revelation, Better Manifestation

The words that you speak determine your future!

Its not what the word of God has to say about you that has the ability to change your life, but it is what YOU say about YOU based on the revelation from the word of God,meaning...it is what you see in the word and agree to that can change your life.

@mychildishere welcome. From what you said your case is unexplained, since every result came out fine, so you could just benefit from womb setting. A lady on the IVF thread got pregnant when she 2 months after they started rear entry method, because she had tilted uterus or so.

The other thing you can also do, is life style change.

@all have a good and fruitful night.
