Hello guys, I need help I keep receiving bank alerts from access bank in the new mtn sim I bought even though I have no access bank . The names attached to the alerts are also different and strange I don't know where this is coming from, should I destroy the sim and get another? 12 Likes 4 Shares |

MegaPlayBoy: For your own good, take it to any MTN office.. That number belonged to someone else and MTN probably sold it because the person did not use it for 6 months 403 Likes 19 Shares |

So weird... since it is a new sim and you're probably not attached to it, ditch it and get a new one before you will start telling stories that touch. If you're attached to it, you can try calling access bank and mtn to resolve the issue.

MegaPlayBoy: If you destroy it, in the next 6 months, they might sell to another person and that one might clear the real owner . Take it to MTN office. Don't take to access bank cos they might carry you to write statement in police station so just take to MTN and let them decide what to do 287 Likes 12 Shares |

Please report to any nearby Access Bank or take it back to MTN to avoid story that touch

TrollKiller: After doing so, whether they rectify the issue or not never use the line again, fortunately you haven't used the line for too long. Break it and get a virgin line. We should also learn to avoid buying recycled line...... 2 Likes |

BiggyB242:this ought to be a minor issue, but you know Nigerians and extortion na.. Take the SIM to MTN, try visiting access bank, if you got a close police/military inform him before visiting the bank so that if things go west him fit yell for their head . Together we can make Nigeria better #NYM God bless Nigeria 8 Likes 1 Share |

It was a dormant sim recycled for re-sell.. Quickly report to the nearest MTN office to flag the sim first, even if you don't want to use it again, go and report first. Then visit access bank too so they can summon the customer who the number with them. The customer (if alive) needs to update his alert notification with his/her new active number before MTN can resell the sim or you can have it back. You have a good heart though.. Ginger guys don't take chances. 10 Likes |
