MTN unveils “053” as its new network code
MTN Ghana has announced the introduction of a new network code, 053.
This new code will complement the existing codes of 024, 025, 054, 055, and 059.
The Chief Sales and Distribution Officer of MTN Ghana, Samuel Addo, stated that the new code is aimed at connecting more people and businesses across the country, thereby bridging the digital divide.
The new code will offer customers a wide range of services, including data packages and mobile financial services.
The new SIM card numbers will be available at all MTN authorized sales points across Ghana.
Customers are advised to be aware of the new code and to accept it for their activities.
To make calls or send SMS with the new code, customers are required to add the relevant prefix to the number being dialed, for example, 053 and the customer’s unique number.
For international calls, customers will need to dial the country code, the prefix, and the customer’s unique number.
MTN Ghana reminds its customers that its official number remains 0244300000 and urges them to be cautious of fraudsters who may take advantage of the new network code to engage in fraudulent activities.
