Borrowing From Airtel: The Not-So-Shady Loan Shark (Except With Less Suspicious Suits)
Airtel Extra Credit, also known as your financial fairy godmother in digital disguise, allows you to borrow airtime when you're in a pinch. Think of it as a small loan to get you back to chatting, calling, and, well, maybe even making that emergency food delivery order.
QuickTip: Pause after each section to reflect.

Here's the how-to, in case your social battery is running low and your bank account is drier than the Sahara:
Tip: Read once for flow, once for detail.
- Dial the magic number: *500# on your phone. This is like the secret knock to the exclusive club of "people who need a little airtime help."
- Prepare to be amazed: You'll be presented with a menu of airtime amounts you can borrow. Choose wisely, grasshopper. Remember, great power comes with great responsibility (and a 15% service fee, but we'll get to that later).
- Confirm your selection: Airtel will double-check if you're sure you want to borrow (they're just looking out for you, really).
- Wait with bated breath: If approved, the airtime will be deposited into your account like a digital money fairy.
The Fine Print (Because There's Always Fine Print)
- There's a limit, baby: Airtel won't turn you into a high roller overnight. The maximum amount you can borrow depends on your past payment history. So, if you've been good with repayments, you might get a higher limit.
- The 15% service fee: This is the not-so-fun part. It's like the fee the troll charges you to cross the bridge back to civilization (except hopefully less smelly).
- Pay it back, or else: Remember, this is a loan, not a freebie. Airtel will deduct the borrowed amount plus the service fee from your next recharge. So, use it wisely and pay it back promptly to avoid any awkward situations with your network provider (and your conscience).
But Seriously, Folks...
Borrowing airtime should be a last resort, not a lifestyle choice. Use it responsibly, and maybe consider packing a spare charger next time (just in case). After all, there's nothing quite like the peace of mind knowing you can always connect with your loved ones (and avoid any impromptu sock-selling ventures).
QuickTip: Pay attention to first and last sentences.
