MTN is a major GSM company in Nigeria with millions of subscribers on her network. How do you check your balance or credit if you are an MTN user?

Well it is simple - For prepaid users, dial *556# and for Post paid users, simply dial *558#

You should get an OTA message reply that tells you how much credit you still have for either of the plans. You may also receive other updates or promos relating to MTN.

Once again,
Prepaid users: Simple type into your keypad the ussd code *556# and dial to check your airtime balance or credit

For Post paid users on MTN Nigeria network, just dial the ussd code *558# and you'd get your prepaid airtime balance from MTN. The reply normally comes almost immediately after dialing the code so you can do it anytime as long as you are connected to the network.

Things you will need:
- A registered MTN Nigeria sim
- A mobile phone

Does it cost any fee to check airtime credit? No. It is a free service.

Why you may want to check your balance
- To know if you can still make calls
- To know when to recharge or top-up
- To receive current updates or news via OTA
