Mobile Money: MTN Sends MoMo Subscribers a Very Important Message—Details

Mobile users whose services have been curtailed due to failing to re-register their SIM cards have been given a lifeline by the National Communications Authority (NCA).

That SIM card may still be registered to have access to all services, including MoMo wallets. This would be possible if people registered their SIM cards with their Ghana Cards.

"What has occurred is that if you restore, you will have access to mobile money for the approximately 7 million people who would be affected by this." the Chief Executive of the Chamber of Telecommunications said in an interview with JoyNews.

Mobile Money: MTN Sends a Very Important Message to MoMo Subscribers—Details

The National Communications Authority (NCA) has thrown a lifeline to mobile consumers whose services have been cut off because they neglected to re-register their SIM cards.

Registering a SIM card to access all services, including MoMo wallets, is still possible. This would be doable if users registered their SIM cards with their Ghana Cards.

According to the Chief Executive of the Chamber of Telecommunications, "for the roughly 7 million people whose mobile money will be affected, what has happened is - if you restore, you will have access to it," he said in a JoyNews interview.

The communications minister, Ursula Owusu-Ekuful, announced that all mobile SIM cards would be reregistered beginning on October 1, 2021.

The exercise's planned six-month time frame was frequently extended due to problems with SIM card users, and its ultimate due date was set for May 31.

Dr. Ashigbey asserts that when the cards become accessible to them, prohibited subscribers can contact the registering short number *404# even if they won't make calls or send texts without a Ghana Card.

Since "you will also be able to check whether you are registered," the 400 would also be functional. He went on, "So that when you come back with your Ghana Card, you can recover your number with all of its history."

In a last-ditch effort to participate, a large number of mobile network customers have gathered at several Kumasi telecoms service facilities.
