Why is there no easy way to check my MTN balances. I used to be with Cell C and they had a free sms you could send and it would report your balances to you.

Now with MTN you have to phone a number and follow voice prompts, it takes longer and is a hassle.

Ideally I'd like to get an SMS or email every day that let me know my airtime and data bundle balances, any clue on how to accomplish that?
 
Dial *162# & follow prompts to register. Afterwards you can easily check you balance on all bundles using this (*162) service. No automatic daily sms, though. :(
 
I remember a number to check (supposedly free call) - 16202... does that not work anymore?
 
Voice prompts and entering numbers is so slow. Just let me active a daily email
 
Was not aware that "Cellular: Phones, Call Contracts, Content" was vodacom only.
 
@schpat - are you on a top - up contract / pre-paid? I just dial *141# and it immediately send me my airtime balance, sms bundles balance and data bundle balance. You can also dial *141*(a single number here)# which gives you shortcuts to data / sms bundles ect where you can check specific balances and purchase specific bundles. Hope that helps!!!
 
Unfortunatly the service is not available on contract. But it should be.

Thanks for the help though
