Why am I getting marketing spam messages on my Afrihost sim from MTN when all my marketing and settings are set to no contact? all my marketing, digital services and mobile financial services are all set to NO and still I am getting this spam. I don't even use this sim for anything but data. I dont need a Fcking pick me up. Please get it changed or is your consent spam system "broke again" as it was in 2020

Did this, all my consent is set to NO. And here we still are
 
Same here, all consent has been and remain on NO. Still, MTN spams with these SMSs. Get a grip MTN, this is illegal. There is no Opt-Out.
