How to Take a Loan from Robi: A Guide for Desperate Times (and Occasional Gamers)
So, you've found yourself in a situation where your phone balance is drier than a week-old croissant and making calls is as likely as winning the lottery. Fear not, dear reader, for there's a glimmer of hope in the form of Robi's Jhotpot Balance, also known as the prepaid emergency loan. But before you go all Willy Wonka and start singing about "Pure Imagination," let's delve into the nitty-gritty:

| How To Take Loan Robi |
Who is Eligible? (Not the Goldfish)
Not everyone gets to be a Robi loan shark, I mean, borrower. This exclusive club is reserved for prepaid Robi customers only. So, if you're rocking a postpaid plan, you'll have to find another way to convince your friends to answer your calls (carrier pigeon, anyone?).
QuickTip: Look for patterns as you read.
How Much Can I Borrow? (Enough for a Pizza, Maybe)
Don't expect to finance your next vacation with this loan. The maximum amount you can borrow is a measly 100 Taka (around $1.20). But hey, it's enough for a few calls to your long-lost aunt who might (or might not) send you a surprise inheritance.
How Do I Get This Magical Jhotpot Balance? (It's Not in a Cauldron)
Tip: Don’t just glance — focus.
- *Dial 8#: This mystical code (not to be confused with the code for free pizza) will tell you if you're even eligible for this loan. Don't worry, it's free.
- If eligible, dial 123007#: This is the magic number that unlocks the Jhotpot Balance. Remember, with great power (or in this case, the power to make a few calls) comes great responsibility (or the responsibility to pay it back).
Important Note: There's a 2 Taka service charge (excluding tax) for borrowing 12 Taka or more. So, unless you're a real penny pincher (or borrowing exactly 11 Taka), be prepared to pay a small fee for the privilege.
Using Your Jhotpot Balance (Like a Boss)
 |
You can use your Jhotpot Balance for any voice calls or SMS. However, any existing bundles or free bonuses you have will be used first, so think of the Jhotpot Balance as the backup dancer – it's there if needed, but not the main attraction.
Tip: Slow down when you hit important details.
Paying Back Your Loan (The Not-So-Fun Part)
The borrowed amount will be automatically deducted from your next recharge. So, remember, this is a loan, not a freebie. Don't be the friend who borrows five bucks and "forgets" to pay you back (we all have that one friend, don't we?).
QuickTip: Scroll back if you lose track.
Bonus Tip: For the Gamers Out There
If you're a mobile gamer desperate for just a few more minutes to finish that epic raid, the Jhotpot Balance can be your saving grace. Just remember, winning doesn't mean you don't have to pay back the loan.
In Conclusion:
The Robi Jhotpot Balance is a handy tool for those occasional moments of phone-balance crisis. Just use it responsibly, and remember, there's no shame in asking for help (or a loan) when you need it. Unless, of course, you're borrowing to buy that tenth pair of shoes you don't need. Then, maybe a little self-reflection is in order.
