Sometimes, free of charge. Haven't you come accross those sales boys & girls on the streets forcing people to take SIM cards for free?

Who is buying sim card again now? Sim cards are shared everywhere free of charge. Due to that, people are even abusing it. You get like 3sim cards today, use them and break them and throw them away, then go back 2moro and get another ones.

Haa, the days when MTN dealt with us, as we were new to GSM they used our head as they liked they even swore that pee second billing was impossible but thank God Glo came and rescued us from the harsh grip of our oppressors in the name of gsm service. The sim pack even came with one funny looking handset. I recall I spent N54,000 to get my first gsm with mtn. Since inception they have never done anything for me by way of reward even inviting me to any of their shows. But see glo that I use as my backup line they keep giving me bonuses and their data service is incomparable. Honestly, I have no reason to keep holding this mtn line short of say the line is virtually in all my documents that are already out there. The only time this mtn peeps gave me #10000 virtual topup was for me to come and register my sim.NCC should never let them go without paying to the last kobo. They have really dealt with us Nigerians.
