Can anyone tell me what the SMS or Cell Number is to load MTN pre-paid credits onto a phone?

My gardener just bought a R10.00 top-up voucher from the corner cafe. But there is nothing on the voucher that tells me how to load it... and I can't find the info anywhere on the MTN website (f... ing stupid if you ask me).

Please, somebody share this info with me... I only use vodacom contract, so I have no access to this info. And MTN sees to think it is a national secret!

Thanks in advance!!!

Get an Airtime update, top-up and register for great rewards.

Call our free IVR line by dialing 141 from your MTN cellphone.

Thanks, I finally got it the second time I called the MTN 173 customer Service.

You have to enter *141*[thePINnumber]# and press go!

You would think they could put this kind of info on their website.... but it's nowhere to be found. :mad:

Its very poor that MTN don't have web access to check your data bundle balance - those like myself using a modem need to remove the SIM card and use it in a handset each time we need to check the balance.

This is actually one of my pet peeves. I know I am going off topic here... but the lack of user ability or options on South African websites is incredibly frustrating.

I tried to go onto the Nedbank website to write an e-mail to the Home Loan Department about their 300% increase in admin fees. I gave up in frustration. Going to write a letter and fax it instead. So much for the 21st Century.
