Broke and Desperate? How to Ethi-Borrow Your Way Out (But Maybe Try Not To)
Let's face it, friends, sometimes life throws you a financial curveball that leaves you feeling about as solvent as a teabag after the fifth dunk. Fear not, for Ethio Telecom has a few options in its pocket (along with your loose change, probably) to help you weather the storm. But before we dive in, remember, borrowing money should always be a last resort. Like that third helping of grandma's infamous fruitcake – tempting, but potentially disastrous.

| How To Borrow Money From Ethio Telecom |
1. Endekise: Your Overdraft Fairy Godmother (with a Catch)
Think of Endekise as your fairy godmother, magically granting you a little extra cash (well, credit) when you need it most. But unlike your fairy godmother (who probably never dealt with overdrafts), Endekise has some conditions. You gotta be 18 or older, be an Ethio Telecom veteran for at least 3 months (no newbies here!), and have a good track record of using their services (be a loyal customer, not just a recharge-and-run type).
Reminder: Short breaks can improve focus.
Here's the catch: This fairy godmother has a short memory. You only get one day to repay the borrowed amount (unless you negotiate a 7-day or 30-day extension, but that comes with a "service fee," wink wink). So, unless you're planning on selling your slightly-used beanie collection on the black market, this option is best for small, immediate needs.
QuickTip: Stop and think when you learn something new.
2. Mela: Micro Loaning for the Micro-Emergencies
Mela is like your friendly neighborhood loan shark, but way cooler (and hopefully less likely to break your kneecaps). It offers micro-loans, smaller amounts of money perfect for those "oh no, I forgot it's rent day" moments. Again, there are repayment deadlines (ranging from 1 day to 30 days), and interest fees apply, so don't go overboard buying that limited edition spork collection you don't need.
Tip: Don’t just scroll to the end — the middle counts too.

3. Airtime & Package Credit: A Lifeline for the Perpetually-Disconnected
We've all been there: phone on the verge of becoming a glorified brick, and your social media life hanging by a thread. Fear not, for Ethio Telecom offers airtime and package credit to get you back in the loop (and hopefully avoid the wrath of your group chat). This is a temporary solution, though, so use it wisely and top up your account properly before you end up back in this digital purgatory.
Tip: Let the key ideas stand out.
Remember, folks, borrowing money should be a responsible and well-thought-out decision. Explore all your options, create a budget, and only borrow what you can absolutely repay. Unless, of course, you find a hidden stash of cash under the couch – in which case, treat yourself to that spork collection, you deserve it!
