So, You've Fallen Victim to the "Airtime Monster" and Need a Loan? Don't Panic, We've Got You Covered (with MTN, at least)!
We've all been there. You're about to call your bestie to dish about the latest episode of that crazy reality show, only to be met with the dreaded "insufficient balance" beep. You stare at your phone, feeling a cold sweat forming, as the "Airtime Monster" whispers sweet nothings of awkward silences and missed gossip.
Fear not, brave prepaid warrior! MTN, in its infinite wisdom, offers a lifeline in the form of an airtime loan. But before you go on a borrowing spree, here's how to check your current airtime loan status and avoid any nasty surprises:
Tip: Review key points when done.
Method 1: Dialing for Dollars (or Naira, Maybe)
QuickTip: A careful read saves time later.
- Grab your trusty phone (the one that isn't threatening to cut you off from the world).
- Punch in the magical code: ** *303# **. This is like the Bat-Signal for MTN customer care, minus the Batmobile (although wouldn't that be handy in traffic?).
- Navigate the menu like a boss. You might encounter some tempting detours like "XtraByte" (data on loan, anyone?), but stay focused. Find the option that says "My Account".
- Once you're in "My Account," look for the "2" option, which usually says something like "View Balance".
- Voila! You'll be greeted with a message displaying your main account balance and, more importantly, your XtraTime (airtime loan) balance.
Method 2: The Voice of Reason (or the 303 Guy)
QuickTip: Use posts like this as quick references.

- Dial 303. This is like calling a friend who always knows what to do (except this friend has a very limited vocabulary).
- Follow the prompts. You might have to press a few buttons, but don't worry, it's pretty straightforward.
- When prompted, press "5" for "Balance Inquiry".
- Just like magic (or well, technology), you'll receive an SMS with your main account balance and XtraTime balance.
QuickTip: Focus more on the ‘how’ than the ‘what’.
