Thank you,” read a notification MTN sent to customers on Sunday.

Alas! The Use Of USSD For Bank Transactions Will Now Cost N4 For Every 20 Seconds Starting 21st October

Customers who use unstructured supplementary service data (USSD) channels to access banking services would have to pay new charges from October 21. Some telecommunications network service providers have sent notices to their customers of the new charge. “Please note that from Oct 21, we will charge N4 per 20 seconds for USSD access to banking services. Thank you,” a notification sent by MTN to customers read. Banking services were introduced on USSD channels to ensure easier access to banking services. Before now, telcos charged customers per USSD session. This charge differed across networks with the highest being N20 per session.

Already, the development has elicited reactions from customers and they have taken to social media to express how they feel on social media.

Minister of Communications, Dr. Isa Ali Ibrahim Sheds Light On Why The Order Was Given On Immediate Disconnection Of 9.2m SIM Cards

The Minister of Communications Dr. Isa Ali Ibrahim has explained that he ordered the Nigerian Communications Commission, NCC to ensure all mobile network operators block all SIM cards that do not meet proper registration standards until users comply with proper re-registration procedures because of their security risk. The directive, he said was a follow up to his earlier directives on assumption of office to all Agencies and Parastatals in the ministry, which led to the submission of NCC’s baseline short-term performance targets report to the minister. For the minister, the security implication of the irregularity in the registration of the said Sim cards is too grave to ignore and vowed that the Ministry will not tolerate any actions or inaction that will compromise the nation’s security. The report signed by the Executive Vice Chairman of NCC, Prof. Umar Danbatta contained precise figures of improperly registered SIM cards in use around the country. T...

Chinese Phone Company, Huawei Has Lost Access To Android And Google

The move means new Huawei smartphones won't be able to access many popular apps. The embattled Chinese company is under immense US pressure over its alleged government ties. US tech giant Google said on Sunday it was pulling Huawei's license to use its mobile phone operating system Android, forcing the Chinese company to rely on an open source version of the software. New Huawei smartphones will no longer have access to services such as Gmail, maps and YouTube as well as security updates. However, people already owning Huawei phones will be able to use and update apps already downloaded. Last week, US President Donald Trump signed an executive order to stop US companies from using telecommunications equipment made by "foreign adversaries" deemed to pose a national security risk. Trump blacklisted Huawei, denying it access to domestic markets and restricting US sales to the company. "We are complying with the order and reviewing the imp...

Samsung Sued Over Water-resistant Phone Claims

Samsung is being sued by Australia’s consumer watchdog for allegedly making misleading claims about the water-resistant properties of its phones. The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) alleges Samsung’s adverts made “false” claims about using its phones while swimming and surfing. The ACCC said it had reviewed more than 300 Samsung adverts before launching its legal action. Samsung told Reuters it would defend the case and stood by its adverts. In its statement, the ACCC said Samsung adverts depicted phones being exposed to seawater and swimming pools and claimed that this would not affect the device during its working life. Although Samsung adverts say its phones have an IP68 water resistance, said the ACCC, this rating does not cover salt water or that found in swimming pools. Samsung’s own website advises people against using the Galaxy S10 in a swimming pool or on the beach, said the consumer watchdog. Samsung had not done enough test...

Have You Met Graham? The Man That Can Survive Any Accident

Meet Graham. He might look a little different, but I assure you that he’s human. Well, sort of. The reason he looks this way is that he has plenty of body modifications that makes him able to survive a serious car crash. Graham, the crash test man, was created as part of a new Australian road safety campaign by the Transport Accident Commission (TAC).  He was designed by sculptor Patricia Piccinini, a leading trauma surgeon, and a road safety engineer, who modified him based on their knowledge of car accidents. The result isn’t a pretty sight, but it’s certainly a sobering one. As you can see, Graham doesn’t have a neck because these snap easily in car accidents. He also has a flat, fleshy face to protect his ears and nose. Also, if you’re wondering about all those extra nipples, they’re to protect his ribs like a natural set of airbags. All these modifications are needed for a human body to survive a car crash. Though Graham was not used in a...

How To Minimize Your Data Useage

Sometimes, it could be frustrating when you open your phone and all you get is-‘you have no internet connection.’ Certain factors are responsible for this. It is important you set up limits and alerts to keep an eye on your data usage and maximize your data plans. Here are the tips: * How much data do you need Most times, you may overestimate the data you need, so use cold hard facts to make the decision on which data allotment is best for you. Log in to your carrier’s website and review your data usage over the past few months. Select a plan that is higher than the amount of data you used during this period. *Set data alerts and limits You can check your data usage on iOS devices by going to Settings > Cellular or Mobile data. These data stats do not reset each billing period automatically, so you have to remember to do it yourself. My Data Manager keeps track of your usage and even allows you to set custom alarms when you exceed a certain amount of data in a...

How To Make Your Phone Battery Last Longer

Many phone users tend to complain that their device’s batteries discharge quickly. They also typically blame the product manufacturer for this issue; however, the manufacturer isn’t always at fault. Here are some five mistakes that users typically make when charging their phones. #Waiting for the Battery to reach low levels before charging Avoid waiting for your battery to reach a critically low level before charging. The effect of this on your phone battery is not immediate, but over time it begins to manifest and it eventually stresses out your phone battery (yes, batteries get stressed too) and shortens the battery life. Think of your battery as a human body, you really don’t need to wait until you’re about to die before you rest and eat to recharge yourself. #Keeping your phone case on while charging Your phone typically emits heat when charging. To avoid exposing your device to ambient temperatures, it’s advisable to remove the phone case while charging your ...

Take Note And Never Place Your Mobile Device In This Places

  #In Your Pocket Keeping your phone in your pocket seems like the smart and logical thing to do but you may actually be doing more harm than good to yourself. There are a number of places that are dangerous for you to store your phone. When cell phones are on, connected to a wireless network, and placed in a pocket, the radiation is two to seven times higher than if it were placed in a purse or holster. There is a link between radiation from a cell phone and tumour growth. Radiation can change the structure of DNA and affect male fertility too. The World Health Organization’s International Agency for Research on Cancer also found that cell phone radiation is additionally carcinogenic to humans. Merely sitting on your phone could cause health issues such as sciatica or other back problems as well. # Close to Your Face Keeping your phone close to your face may transfer bacteria to and from your phone, creating an environment for bacteria to thrive on y...

Blackberry Messenger (BBM) Finally Shuts Down (Good or Bad)?

Few month ago, decorative door hardware company, Emtek announced the end of BlackBerry Messenger(BBM) for consumers. The once-mighty messaging service had a good run, outstripping the popularity of its hardware namesake. BBM was Launched in 2005, licensing rights for the service were acquired by Indonesia-based tech conglomerate Emtek 11 years later. For many years, BBM was considered BlackBerry’s (nee Research in Motion) strongest product, with some loyalists eschewing Android and iOS devices before it was finally ported over to those operating systems in 2013. But competition ultimately proved too much. Technology and the world moved away from BBM and BlackBerry at large. The rewards, it seems, weren’t worth the resources. “We poured our hearts into making this a reality, and we are proud of what we have built to date,” Emtek wrote in a blog post last month. “The technology industry however, is very fluid, and in spite of our substantial efforts...

Some Incredible Functions Of Your Smartphone Camera You Never Figured Out Until Now (Check Them Out)

Unless you’re a serious photographer, you probably don’t carry a digital camera anymore.
