Is MTN welcome back sim the same as MTN welcome back offer?
The answer is NO, they are not the same. MTN welcome back sim is when you will need to replace your MTN sim at any MTN office in Nigeria after it got stolen, lost, damaged, or faulty.
MTN Nigeria is always waiting to welcome you back anytime this happens. To get your MTN sim replaced, you will need to provide any Government-issued ID card and your MTN sim pack. If you have lost your sim pack, you will need to provide an affidavit.
On getting to the MTN office, you will need to purchase a new card, which will house your old MTN phone number. Do note you will still get the same number so far you satisfy the MTN swap conditions.
A form will then be given to you which you are expected to complete with the right information. Among the information required from you are 3 frequently dialled numbers, your last recharge, year of purchase, mother’s maiden name, and your current MTN tariff plan.
After you have fulfilled all conditions needed to carry a successful swap at the MTN office. The customer care agent will work on the technical aspect and you will be required to pay at least N150 or N200 as the cost of the MTN swap.
At times, you might be persuaded to purchase an MTN airtime or data. Do it if only it is convenient for you. Do not be prodded into buying it when it is not convenient. You could explain to the agent in a respectful manner and I am sure he or she will understand.
