HURRAY!!! MTN XtraTime Give Access to "Borrow Credit"

MTN XtraTime a new product which was launched
today in Nigeria, allows you request for airtime
from the network on credit, when you have run out
of airtime and pay later. The airtime once received,
can be used on any billable activity on the network
regardless of whether it is voice, data or a Value Added Service.

The service is available to prepaid customers that
have between 0-12 Naira on their account balance,
and meet an unspecified including tenure on the
network, and recharge frequency.

To access the service, dial *606# and use the
displayed menu to check eligibility, request the
airtime, check balance or see your Xtratime
transaction history.

The service attracts a 10% charge, meaning you
only get 90% of what you are requesting for and
can only be used again after the initial credit is paid
up. What you have used up shows as a negative
value on your balance and is deducted the next
time you top up.

Before today's Nigeria launch, the service has been
introduced by MTN in Ghana, Uganda and Zambia.
