Shortly after the credit borrowing service was launched by major telecommunication providers in Nigeria, plans were quickly made to put the whole system of borrowing credit on Auto-pilot to make sure our calls don’t get interrupted when credit get exhausted. It’s a really cool initiative but sometimes we make some calls and don’t really wish to call back if the current call credit gets exhausted. So, if you’ve opt-in for the auto-borrow service on your glo and airtel lines but wish to deactivate it now, here’s how to go about it.
1. To activate / deactivate auto-borrow service on your glo line
For activation
- Dial *321#

***Don’t forget you will be charged a transaction fee of 10 naira for every 100
