New services launched by mobile networks in Nigeria usually introduce a product or service strategically made to add more money to their pockets as part of non-stop marketing campaigns that draw new customers in and retain relationships with existing ones.
Once in a while, they develop a soft spot for the consumers and introduce value added services that may not necessarily be of benefit to them or that’s just what i’d like to think.
The truth is, Mobile networks pay attention when the customer care unit gets flooded with complaints from aggrieved users seeking a remedy for the constant harassment by Unsolicited SMS adverts, robo calls and strange charges for SMS services one may or may not have subscribed for.
In 2013, we published an article titled “How to stop Unsolicited call and SMS from mobile network operators in Nigeria”. The tips shared then still works in some cases because they were recommended by the Nigeria Communication Commission (NCC) in an attempt to regulate such activities.
We’re glad to inform you that 9mobile Nigeria has launched a new service called DO NOT DISTURB which is made to give customers of the network peace of mind as it enables you view all services you have opted in to with or without your knowledge and opt out.
