MTN MTN MTN!.

they send approximately 5-6 useless messages daily and on celebration periods up to 10.
Now i ignore their MESSAGES THEY HAVE RESORTED TO CALLING ME!!!!

HINT/CAUTION: The funny part is that they have deviced a means of sending these messages inform of an alert, where your phone asks you to click Yes or No.

If you mistakenly click Yes, you're on your own.
There was a time my phone was switched off for a day and an half due to bad battery, on purchasing a new one, i immediately plugged my phone and switched it on.:...
Almost immediately, messages started trooping in, and i was already getting afraid lest my phone vibrate and sing to death lol.

Messages like: Send 0260077 to 4100 to prophecy new things to your callers with callertunez... How can i prophecy when i'm not even a pastor, i quickly delete am before i do mistake, prophecy for person say him go receive gift of car and at the end e no Receive.

Please dont bother calling their customer careline, after you wait for like 10mins(not surprising since perhaps 50 thousand other disturbed peeps are calling for same reason) if they enventually pick up, and you're done complaining.
Please have it at the back of your mind that:

1. Nothing will be done... Yes absolutely nothing will be done, the care agent would even look for ways to put the blame on you

2. I've noticed Calling them to complain of constant promo messages, automatically adds your phone number to their number one customers to receive it.... Yeah more like a TO DO LIST.....
I once complained, the agent assured me that everything is fine now, it didnt get up to 2mins later, i received another pointless message. I just shaked my head....


They are very crafty, and the only reason i'm still on this network is because its quite popular among my peers.


Happy Independence Nigeria
seriously,I am still using mtn cuz of my friends n family who use it. I once received 30 "trash messages" from mtn in less than 5minutes. That day,I thought I had changed my message tone to my ringtone with the way it was ringing non-stop. It pisses me off. NCC must act on this incessant messages.

All of them are the same, imagine etisalat claims Nigeria best network with their crafty way of renew unsolicited bundle or whatever. Migrate from one package to another you must pay. in fact NCC are the one who sold us to them because they didn't regulate anything.

MTN & GLO are actually competing on my phone, to the extent that even when it's an important message, the feeling that it's from those service providers will not make me check.
To make matters worst, both are on the same phone.
