Hey man it is not fake, it is just that the SMS percentage is usually higher than your bonus MTN-MTN calls percentage. The lower the amount you recharge the lower your MTN-MTN calls percentage. For example you get N50 MTN-MTN calls + N150 MTN-MTN SMS when you recharge N200. But as the amount you recharge increases, MTN-MTN calls amount and MTN-MTN SMS amount approaches 50:50.
To check your bonus dial *559#

If MTN is not good for you why not head on to Glo, Etisalat, Airtel or even Visa Phone, Starcomm. etc
I mean there are several OPTIONS out there. MTN is in business to make profit,we can't run their show for them.

Tadup: Its not fake. The 125% bonus means you will have 1/4 extra credit, so the 400 you loaded mtn gave you 100=1/4 of 400

Wrong.. 125% is not the same thing as 1/4

2tek: Is dat what it really entails? Many pple wl still prefer it 2 ETIBABA's own considering d fact dat MTN gives u d 150 % bonus from Mon-Sun which lasts for 7days from d recharge day but etisalat gives u as frm 6pm Fri-Sun which expires dat same weekend. Let d competition continue,I'm enjoying it.
y who is competing with who?
Dont you understand the difference between Fake and competiton?
MTN have serious problem.

CeaserB: Surprisingly to me, MTN is getting better. I'm not sure if I'm the only one here or maybe it's because MTN had ripped me off for over nine years now and they decided to thank me.
A friend sent me #1500 credit. After my recharge, I was rewarded with #1500 bonus to call "ANY" network. I thought it was a joke but to my surprise it wasn't shocked
I called all networks with my bonus except for international numbers which they charged for.
Last week Friday, I got a text saying I should recharge and get weekend calls for free, which I did by recharging #1500 and to my amazement I got my #1500 bonus and a whooping 24 hours to call MTN numbers for free from 12am on Saturday to 11:59pm on Sunday.
Right now I'm rocking more than #3000 worth of bonus on my line to call "ANY" Naija network. I only recharge if I have to call international number which now costs #33 per minute (reasonable to me).
For the First time in Nine years I'm now Saying with MTN "Life Is Good" cheesy


P.S: I'm just an average consumer of MTN products with no connection to MTN staff or Management at all. I like to think I'm not the only one enjoying these benefits.
I hope the promo lasts forever. grin

You are marketing MTN abi?

Even with the fact that I don't like mtn, I wouldn't call the promo SCAM. I loaded #1500 yesterday and they gave me free #750 and #1500 worth of calls and sms respectively. Adding the two together gives Ɣøû #2250 which Į̸̸̨Ƨ̷ equivalent to 150% of ♍γ̲̣̣̥ initial recharge of 1500.

But wait, what am I suppose to do with #1500 sms bonus?

WE are no longer using MTN!
MTN is fraudulent!
We wmust crash the network!
Our MTN SIM cards was tossed when ETISALAT came
They must go back to south Africa
Empty Hen is a scam
NCC must ban them....... bla bla bla
People have known me with the number.... and the beats goes on.

SIM cards costs just 100 naira. Buy the SIM of your prefared network, load the SIM with credit, and send sms to all your contacts that you have a new number and going forward they should communicate with you using your new number. BINGO! all your problem solved.

The truth is when number portability comes, all of you will still thick with MTN, I can bet that. Do you all know why? You all prasie gsm service providers because of freebies and not because of quality of service.

Load above 400 naira means you get 100% bonus only when you load 750 or more not 400 and below.

MTN is a scam but Nigerians will not just buy another sim just because they have been jazzed.

Am shocked people are still talking about mtn upon all the fraud they unleashed on Nigerians. Nothing is real about MTN, I mean nothing. See how the mtn magic number was scraped, but up till today etisalat from me to you still exist. Anything fake bonus mtn gives to you is limited to call only mtn to mtn lines. But etisalat gives me 100% of my recharge to call any network. See how they have brake boundaries. Just join me to kick out mtn. Mtn is worst than the fuel subsidy scam.

wild guy:

Pls do d calculation again. MTN are only giving 25% extra bonus or 125% of the loaded credit. If it was 125% [b]extra bonus [/b]then 400 would b 900naira.

But u are also given 300 naira worth of free sms. It still can't be compared to etisalat's offer anyway. Do we really need to send so many messages?

I blame NCC and Nigerian government for allowing so called MTN and the rest to fool Nigerians. Do u know that if F. Govmnt knew that communication will boom in Nigeria they wouldn't have privatized it. they are even afraid to do same to PHCN lipsrsealed lipsrsealed

MTN is a scam! The so called extra call minutes moves in nano-seconds that you wont even realize if it were there or not. AND who sends N400 worth of sms in a day even if u ar chatting via sms,it wont finish!!!

Re: Mtn's 125% And 150%Recharge Bonus Is Fake. Try It At Your Own Risk by brianromel(m): 10:18am On Jul 31, 2012
I am a glo boy,been using glo for a while but switched to airtel when glo infinito stopped.

Now on friday at exactly 2:21pm i loaded my mtn,to register this 10 family and friend gig osofia is adverting on mtn. i loaded N200.

After i loaded the N200 i saw N400 in my main account balance. i had to look at the card well to comfirm whether na joke or play. cos i hardly use my mtn and i didnt know of any promo as i hardly watch naija tv. (just flip to channels that day out of share boredom).

Ok back to the story,i also got a message notifing me that i had N800 bonus to call mtn and other networks. That had me dialing *556# immediately but i only saw N400 i had to read that message 3 times well to understand it before i saw the *559#. i dialled that and i saw my the N800.

Now just to test whether this was a trick or another of mtn‘s scam stories,i dialled two of my lads using glo and airtel. and then checked my main balance. The N400 was still there,now on the bonus balance i had 725.(total call time 5mins 17sec).

Now mtn i have to say i am impressed. even u 40% to 90% off cell broadcasts work on the bonus.

Although i will wait till friday 2:21pm to load and try again to see if i wi get the bonus again.(fingers crossed).

p.s i have finished the 800 this is tuesaday and my N400 has not been touched or deducted.

Not posting my number in case mtn is waitin for that one to use remove my money. sometimes u never know what they will do next.

load =N=400
400 X 125% / 100% = 500
500-400 = 100
=N=100 is your bonus

so wats the issue here...i dont no y some people jst like

puskin: Simple calculation.....people no fit do again
For the benefit of the people wey no sabi maths well........ grin grin grin grin grin

Silly emptyhen says: 150% and 125% for recharges above 400 and below 400 respectively.

EG.....U load N400....U are entitled to 125% bonus....which is.......N500......wat emptyhen didn't tell U is dat they split this amount into bonus call and bonus SMS.......so N400 is for the bonus SMS while N100 is for the bonus emptyhen2emptyhen call.

U load N750.....U are entitled to 150% bonus........which is.......N1125............the amount is split .........N750 for SMS and N375 for bonus[b]emtptyhen2emptyhen[/b] call.

I hope everyone now understands. cheesy

But i thought 150% of 750 is 1875 and not 1125. So my dear go to hell with your fucking calculation and your stupid mtn bonus.
........and who da freaking hell started this thread in the first place..........naija.....anything they don't understand is either fake or dubious.
