Nigeria (Lagos) is 1 hour behind Amsterdam right now. Recharges are delivered around the clock, so the time of day does not matter.
MTN says a prepaid number with no chargeable activity is disconnected from the network and the number recycled. Its Keep My Number service holds a line that goes abroad or sits dormant for more than 180 days: dial *365# after recharging, ₦3,500 for 1 year, ₦5,000 for 2 years, ₦7,500 for 3 years (prepaid only).
Dial *310# from the MTN line to see the main account balance and bundle balances.
MTN asks customers to call 300, chat with Zigi on WhatsApp at 0903 300 0001, or email customercare.ng@mtn.com, then track the ticket in myMTN NG.
Enter it with the country code +234. A number written locally as 0802 123 4567 becomes +234 802 123 4567, so drop the leading 0 after the country code. Nigerian mobile numbers have 10 digits after the country code. The example is a format guide, not a real number.
