AirtelTigo has urged its subscribers to register their SIM
cards before the September 30, 2022 deadline and in turn enjoy 1GB of free
data.
The nationwide SIM
registration exercise that started from October 1, 2021 was to end on March 31,
2022.
However, looking at the large,
unregistered base, an extension was given till June 30, 2022.
In a recent development, the
Minister of Communications and Digitalisation further allowed a final extension
till the end of September to complete this exercise, after which punitive
measures would apply.
In a statement, the Ag. Director Customer
Experience, Peter Dzidzienyo said, “We hope our unregistered customers take
advantage of the extension to complete the registration process before the
deadline to ensure their numbers are not barred.
The process of SIM registration
is in two steps. First, dial *404# to link your Ghana card with your SIM card.
In case this fails, kindly dial *100*5# and answer a few security questions to
complete the first step.
The final step requires the customers
to visit any AirtelTigo Shop or Registration Centre to complete their biometric
capture.
The statement advised customers to
carry their Ghana Card and keep their digital address handy before their visit
adding that upon successful registration, customers would instantly receive 1GB
of free data.
He also noted, “Now even Glo Customers
can register their SIM cards at any of the AirtelTigo Shops”.
In addition, the statement said
AirtelTigo staff on every Wednesday, Thursday and Friday would join the field
teams to help and support for a smoother registration experience.
