How To Easily Share Data On 9mobile Using Ussd Codes
Sharing data on 9Mobile is quick and convenient, allowing users to transfer portions of their data bundles to friends and family. The process involves using simple USSD codes and can be completed in a few steps. Here's how:
Dial the Data Transfer Code
Use the code format:
- *229*PIN*DataVolume*Recipient’sPhoneNumber#.
For example, to share 20MB with someone, dial:
- *229*1234*20*08090000000#.
Replace "1234" with your current data transfer PIN and input the recipient's 9Mobile number.
Change the Default PIN
The default PIN for data transfer on 9Mobile is often set to 0000. To change it to something secure, dial:
- *247*OldPIN*NewPIN#.
For instance, to change from 0000 to 5678, dial:
- *247*0000*5678#.
Confirm the Transfer
After completing the process, you will receive a confirmation message indicating whether the transaction was successful.
Data Gifting Option
If you want to buy data directly for someone rather than share from your balance, use the data gifting option under 9Mobile’s menu by dialing *229# and following the prompts.
Tips for a Smooth Experience
- Ensure you have sufficient data balance before initiating the transfer.
- Double-check the recipient's phone number to avoid errors.
- Keep your PIN secure to prevent unauthorized transactions.
This easy-to-use system ensures that staying connected with loved ones is seamless, even when their data runs out.
