MTN CANCELS FAMILY & FRIENDS ?

My fellow Nigerians I wonder if anyone has noticed that without any notice, MTN has cancelled the special call rates to those on our Friends & Family list. They now charge N53.33k/sec = N32/min for Friends & Family members & non-members alike. To fool unsuspecting subscribers though, dialling *560# will still show your list of F & F members.

That's not all, it's easier for U to remove a member from the list but U are subtly blocked from adding a new number: U'll simply be told 'we're experiencing a network error, please be patient while we fix the problem.'

Zain too don't allow U to add a new number to your F & F list. Though in their case, they still apply d half rate agreed with their subscribers.

But the question is why are these pple going from bad to worse? Could we say it's because Mr. Ernest Ndukwe led NCC has been dealing with these capitalists with kid gloves, at the expense of millions of Nigerians? What's going on?

These telecommunications companies are always taking their subscribers on a fools hike. What a childish act are they trying to pull-up?

Matters are even worse here at Ghana. If you wanna hide your mobile number in a call, you've gotta pay 4 it. You've gotta buy a special SIM equivalent to 4K naira to browse the net. I'm talking about MTN Ghana. They're killing guys here!

Nice blog TEEWIZZy, I got to find your blog from nairaland. I love your bluntness in your posts, that's what stands you out from every random blogger. But I think you've gotta get a better blog design. Hit me on mail, let me see how I could help. Cheers.
