Did you try to spread misinformation about FG?
.If FG starts barring line, they will only make the protest to be worse like kenya

Just dial *996# and follow the prompt.
You ppl have browsing phones but would never use it to make life easy for yourselves.

My mom's own was barred and I googled it immediately iused it in less than 5 mins it was unbarred.
Help yourselves ,this is technological age
I used this code and when I finished linking my line they said it was successful but till now my line is still blocked.
Please how did you do it?

YOUR MTN LINE HAS BEEN BARRED!
NO WORRIES : THIS IS HOW TO UNLOCK YOUR MTN SIM

Yesterday morning, U woke up just to discover your MTN line has been blocked. And the tiny voice therein Keep telling you to visit a nearby MTN Office to link you NIN anytime you try making call.

Don't stress yourself going to any office! Worry not!!

Pick your phone, Dial:
*996#
Follow up.
A menu of options will display. Press 1, which will take you to another menu. Press 2, to submit your 11 digits NIN. I mean your own NIN, which must match the BioData on your SIM Card.

Press 1, to accept and confirm the Submission.

NOTE: your SIM card won't be unblocked immediately after this process. Wait for 4- 5 hours for the technical team to your BioData.

After 4-5 hours, you SIM confirmation will be unlocked, where SMS will be sent to you to continue with your usual activities with your SIM.

It's not working; it keeps saying error

Good day people.

Please who else is experiencing this. I just woke up to the realization that MTN has barred my line. The line has been linked to my nin for years but was just barred without warning or due notice.

I can't make calls, receive SMS notifications or receive calls.

Now I have to find a way to go to their office thereby missing my work on Monday.

Even if they were to bar it why on Sunday? What happened to Friday so I have the weekend to rectify the issue?

I smell fowl play

If you don't want your day to be ruined further, you better don't go to their office.

Same thing happened to me, and I've been to their office at Akowonjo this morning only to see the entire crowd of Alimosho local government. People fighting to get inside....if care is not taking, na for MTN office the protest go start.

They are secretly trying to dissuade people from protesting by engaging in mass disconnecttion, so that rather than protest you get busy at MTN offices finding how to unbar ur line. U guys elected a kindergarten government in 2023.

If you have been barred from MTN due to your NIN not being linked, follow this guide below.

Click on nin.mtn.ng, enter your phone number or email address to get an OTP and fill the OTP box.

Doesn't work. My wife's sim was blocked yesterday even though i personally linked the line to my NIN. I dialled *996# and after over 18 minutes time wastage, i was linked to a customer care who told me that i MUST visit an MTN office before the issue will be rectified
if u link ur nin with your wife and ur wife data base was on mtn, i think its right for her line to be barred

At times most people thought their lines has been linked when it wasn’t . myMTN app and link your number within seconds .

I thought my number was linked till I use the myMTN app to see that none of them was link as you can see from this attached. I quickly linked all my lines .

Mine was banned, but I have unbanned it. You don't need to go to there office. just click on this link https://ninlinking.mtn.ng/ to unban it.

NB. If you try unlocking it and it is not going because of network, don't worry try it again and again it will work.

Thank you
