The Broke Millennial's Guide to Borrowing From Your Phone (AKA "How to Loan NTC")
Let's face it, folks, we've all been there. You're scrolling through the latest cat memes (because, priorities), when wham! You realize you're about to hit rock bottom of your mobile data allowance faster than a toddler dives into a chocolate fountain. Panic sets in. You're faced with two options: 1) Become a social media hermit until your next recharge, or 2) Embrace the mysterious world of NTC loans.
Now, before you envision shady loan sharks lurking in the back alleys of the internet, relax, it's not that dramatic. NTC, or Nepal Telecom, offers a convenient little service called "Namaste Credit" that allows you to borrow a small amount of credit to keep your phone juice flowing. But be warned, this isn't an excuse to go on a data binge-watching spree of every K-drama ever made. Think of it as a lifeline, not a magic money tree.

3. Repaying the Loan: This is where the responsible adult part comes in. The loan amount will be deducted from your subsequent top-ups over the chosen period. So, plan your finances accordingly and avoid getting stuck in a cycle of borrowing.
Important Reminders (Because We Don't Want You Crying Over Empty Data Bars):

- Repay on time: Nobody likes a deadbeat borrower, not even your phone company.
Bonus Tip: If you're feeling particularly adventurous, you can even download the NTC app for an even smoother loan experience. Just remember, with great borrowing power comes great responsibility (and hopefully, no more data emergencies).
So, there you have it! Now you're equipped to navigate the thrilling world of NTC loans. Use this knowledge wisely, and remember, borrowing responsibly is key to staying connected (and avoiding those awkward "call ended" messages).
