How to Permanently Stop MTN from Sending You Unsolicited Messages

From persuading us to play BABA IJEBU to wooing us to learn how to plant a corn for ₦50 per week, MTN has come out to us with its different promotional messages. Before now, you can opt out of irrelevant and promotion message by dialing 1235*4#, but this method is now archaic. For this reason MTN is introducing a more effective option called Do Not Disturb (DND) list.

With DND list, you can manage the kind of promotional messages you receive from MTN or totally opt out of all. In this article, I will show you how you can use the Do Not Disturb list to opt out of MTN promotional service.

Are you ready? Let go and see how MTN DND works!
