Calling your friends and relatives to check up on them every morning could actually be weird right? Especially, in this COVID-19 era where the cost of mobile credit and data is very expensive.
What is I could tell you that there’s a way you can actually call your friends and loved ones every morning for the next six months. But, this offer is for only AirtelTigo customers.
When Airtel and Tigo joined forces to establish one big company, the main reason they gave was that they were going to improve their services and offers; and till this day, they have delivered exactly that.
During this COVID-19 where people are being laid off work and struggling to make ends meet, AirtelTigo has introduced a new package that is going to help their loyal customers to make free unlimited calls every morning for the next 6 months.
What is Free AirtelTigo Free Morning Offer?
The AirtelTigo free morning offer is a relief package that AirtelTigo is introducing to help their customers in this coronavirus pandemic. In this offer, customers will be allowed to make free calls every morning for the next six months.
How Does It Work?
Every morning for the next 6 months, all subscribers will be given free unlimited on-net calls for a limited period of time (5 am to 10 am). The subscribers will also receive free 100 MB worth of data every morning to browse the internet. In addition to all these packages, subscribers will also be granted six months of free Mobile Money (AirtelTigo) transfer to all other AirtelTigo Money (ATM) subscribers.
The free morning offer is available for only AirtelTigo to Airtel Tigo calls during the allocated time between the hours of 5 am and 10 am. Calls that will be placed before or after this period will be charged at the normal call rate.
For new customers who activate their sim however, there will be one-month free morning offer.
In addition to that, a newly registered customer who fails to make the AirtelTigo Money (ATM) transactions within the first 30 days of being on the network, they will not be eligible to enjoy the Free Morning Offer anytime after that.
In case they want to join, they need to purchase it for an amount of GH¢ 2.
How to Activate AirtelTigo Free Morning Offer For 6 Months Unlimited Talk-time
This offer is available to existing customers and new people who want to switch from their current mobile service provider to AirtelTigo. This method used by AirtelTigo is not only aimed at helping customers but also bring more customers on board as well.
New AirtelTigo Customers
To qualify for this offer as a new customer,
You first of all need to visit an agent or AirtelTigo office with a valid Ghana Card to buy a new AirtelTigo sim card.
After buying the sim card, you are required to ask the provider to register you on the AirtelTigo Money (ATM) service.
Upon completion, you are required to start making transactions on your AirtelTigo Money account. This will verify that you are indeed enrolled on the platform as a customer but not as an “opportunist” who wants to benefit from the package and after that leave the network.
The transactions you make should include the following:
Airtime Purchase
Peer-to-peer transaction
Interoperability money transfer
Buy bundle/package
Cash-out
Merchant payment
Once you have made enough transactions to show that you are indeed here to stay in the one month period, you will automatically qualify for the package. Once you qualify, an SMS will be sent to your phone indicating that you have qualified for the free morning offer.
Existing AirtelTigo Customers
With existing customers, there’s no need for you to show whether you’re here to stay or not. But before you can subscribe to the free morning offer, you need to be a subscribed AirtelTigo Money customer.
Once you are a subscriber of AirtelTigo Money, you can activate the offer by:
Dialling the short code *110# i.e. the AirtelTigo Money shortcode
After that, you need to select option 2 and then purchase the package for GH¢ 2 using your AirtelTigo Money wallet.
Eligibility for the AirtelTigo Free Morning Offer
There are no eligibility criteria, but only all prepaid subscribers of AirtelTigo can enjoy this package. Meaning, customers using postpaid and broadband cannot benefit from this amazing package.
However, a subscriber must make the first call within the hours of validity (5 am to 10 am) once for a limited time period to trigger this offer.
Conclusion
The introduction of this offer is going to help customers especially those who make calls every morning to their friends and loved ones.
If you are also not a call person like myself, you can use the SMS and free data package as well to do what you want to do with it during the validity hours of 5 and 10 am.

Getting access to a quick loan in Ghana these days is simple, easy, and less time-consuming. With the introduction of mobile money services and the advancement in security and cybercrime checks, many companies today don’t require collateral before even granting a loan to their customers.
Today, anyone can have access to a quick loan right from their account. The good part is that MTN, which is one of the leading players in the mobile money service here in Ghana has made viable partnerships so the masses can access loan facilities..

Thus, the providers can only give you the loan base on your MoMo transactions and also your commitment to the service. If you pay your loan on time, then your loan limit will be lifted and you can demand a loan of up to GHS 1,000 from this institution.
Of course, the loan comes with interest. Meaning when paying back your loan, you pay with an additional charge. So if you are ready to get the loan from MTN, you can follow the below steps.

The institution provides fast and easy short-term loans, called FIDO Loans to its customers. To have access to the loan, you will need to pass through a one-time verification of your ID and Mobile Money account.
Just Like the MTN MoMo Qwik loan, FIDO does not also require collateral or guarantors before giving you the loan.
How Does Fido Loan Work?
Download the Fido App on the Google Play store for free
Apply by filling out the loan application in the app
Receive your money instantly
Repay on time and get a higher amount for your next loan
NB: You can get up to 200 GHS on your first loan application. Once you pay on time then you unlock the initial limit and now you can apply to be given up to 600 GHS.

This financial institution was formed in the year 2010 and since then, they have grown to cover a large portion of Ghana’s financial sector. They offer different types of loans including the Qwik loan, Smartcash loan, and the payroll loan.

MTN XpressLoan
Xpress Loan is a borrowing or credit service on the MTN Mobile Money platform that allows regular MoMo subscribers to access a loan/credit facility through their mobile phone in a few minutes.
Existing MTN Customers can use the loan service to access loans. There is no need for savings or paperwork and the money is sent directly into the subscriber/applicant’s MoMo account.

The introduction of MTN Mobile Money and other Mobile Money forms has actually positively affected lives across Ghana.
Even those in the deepest villages across Ghana can send and receive money without having to travel to and fro the big cities to access the bank.
While this technology has really eased things for the average Ghanaian, it also comes with its own challenges, one of which is the wrongful transfer of money to different accounts.
At one point or the other in the life of anyone using MTN Mobile Money, they mistakingly send money to different accounts while attempting to make payments or send money to relatives.
As painful as this situation sounds and is, it does not necessarily mean a death sentence.
There are remedies to this situation.
In this article, we shall look at ways of reversing a wrongful transfer on your MTN Mobile Money account.
How to reverse MTN Mobile Money transaction via Customer Care
As soon as you notice that you have sent an amount of money to a wrong number or person on your MTN mobile money account, you have to call MTN Customer care to reverse your transaction. To reverse your MTN Mobile Money transaction, do the following:
Call 100 within the first 15 days from the day you made the transaction.
Select your language
Select Mobile Money
Select Wrongful Mobile Money Transaction
Select ‘Speak to an Agent’
Explain your situation to the agent on the line.
Mention the original account you were sending the money to.
Mention the account you mistakingly sent the money to.
State the exact amount involved.
MTN would investigate the situation and send a reversal message to the person within 15 days.
Once the person approves, you should have the money back in your account.
How to do Person To Person Reversal
If you find the MTN agent or customer care approach to be too cumbersome or unyielding, you may want to try the Person to Person reversal method, although this is not recommended
So, for the person to Person reversal, it’s more about luck and how much you can convince people.
Find the number you wrongly transferred the money to in your momo transaction message.
Call the person and tell them exactly how much you sent to them and the actual number you were sending the money to. Be sure to be calm in your speech and do not act in any funny way to raise suspicions of fraud.
Ask them to check their mobile money accounts to confirm if the amount has been reflected in the account.
Once they confirm it with you, tell them to send the money back to you kindly. You can even offer them a tip from the total amount as an appreciation.
If done properly, the recipient of the money could send back your money to you as soon as they confirm that the money has truly been sent to their accounts mistakingly.
Conclusion
The best thing you can ever do is to ensure that you double-check your number and the name of the recipient when sending money to someone using MTN Mobile Money.
As easy as the article may have sounded, you have to realize that your ability to receive your money back when sent to a wrong number depends mainly on the recipient.
If the recipient is not someone of honour or a trustworthy person, they may withdraw the money and keep rejecting your calls.
So you have to be very careful when sending monies out.
Kindly share this article with friends and family.
With the introduction of friction by way of presentation of ID Cards before MoMo transactions – withdrawals are especially affected, a lot of individuals have asked whether there are any workarounds for this.
Especially now that the only ID card you can use to withdraw is the Ghana Card, you’ll need a workaround to withdraw your money if you don’t have the card.
As with any change that heavily relies on human adherence rather than the tech side of things, hacks are possible.
Today, I would like to talk about some ways that you can technically withdraw your MTN Mobile Money from your wallet if you don’t have a valid ID Card.
Yes, there could be situations when you don’t have an ID Card at all for transactions, like me, when I misplaced my National Passport and my Ghana Card was not yet ready.
First of all, it is important that the new presentation of ID cards directive has been put in place by MTN Ghana, in what they claim as a good way to fight the prevalence of MTN Mobile Money Fraud. Therefore, it is in your best interest to adhere to them.
Again, this article is not to rubbish the efforts of MTN Ghana, but to lend a helping hand to those who might need it.
Now, let’s look at how you can withdraw your cash via MTN Mobile Money if you have no valid ID Card.
Some years back, only a few ATMs supported the feature. However, now, a lot more ATMs will allow you to withdraw your money in just a few steps.
You simply need to generate a token from your Mobile Money account and use it for the withdrawal. Be sure to withdraw in multiples of GHS 10 since some ATMs are unable to dispense lower denominations.
Sometimes, the old ways are the best ways. If you want to withdraw but don’t have an ID Card, it makes sense to send it to a friend who has an ID card to use for the withdrawal.
Your friend can then cash out by themselves and give you the cash or simply give you the cash and keep the e-cash on their wallet.
The problem with this method is that you might end up paying double charges and e-levy if the amount is above your threshold. However, if you really need the money and can’t afford to wait, then this is a good way to get your money even with no valid ID Card.
Send directly to the Merchant
I don’t even know if this method is exactly legal. If it is, then the fight against fraud has a long way to go.
Yesterday, while at the MoMo merchant with a friend who was there to withdraw, the merchant suggested he had a “sim we can send the money to” and once he confirms receipt, he gives us the cash. We didn’t use that route though and went by MTN’s approved means of cashing out.
This method is similar to the method described above. The difference however is that this time, the Mobile Money Merchant is your “friend” and you still get to pay e-levy. It was not clear if the charges will be added to the money sent.
Use your Other Mobile Money Accounts on other Networks
Currently, this method is being used by a lot of individuals. However, the method will soon be obsolete and useless should other Mobile Money networks also demand an ID Card.
Using 3rd Party Services to make payments and transfers
3rd Party services like SlydePay and ExpressPay can help you transfer money from your MTN MoMo account to your bank account or other accounts.
By doing this, you can use the ATM of your bank to make a withdrawal. This method, although effective is unattractive to me due to the huge charges that these 3rd Party services charge.
Conclusion
Hopefully, you don’t find yourself in a situation where you will need to hack your way around withdrawing money from your own wallet because you don’t have your ID Card present.
Remember MTN accepts only the Ghana Card for mobile money transactions.
The following ID cards are no longer supported:
NHIS Card
National ID
Voter’s ID
SSNIT ID
Driver’s License and
Passport
Fraudsters who may want to use these methods for their own grim motives should know that MTN is on the lookout for them and they will be caught and prosecuted.
