Transferring Credit From Glo To MTN
You may be wondering if there’s a way to transfer airtime from your Glo line to an MTN line.
Some people might even be asking if it’s possible at all. Whatever questions you have, the first thing you need to do is reset your Glo transfer PIN, even before trying out any codes or methods.
Here are the steps to reset your Glo transfer PIN:
How to Reset Glo Transfer PIN
If you’re new to Glo airtime transfer or just starting out, you’ll need to reset your transfer PIN. You can do this by dialing *132*[Default PIN]*[New PIN]*[New PIN]# on your phone.
The default PIN for Glo is 00000.
For example, if you want to set your new PIN as 98765, you can dial *132*00000*98765*98765# and a pop-up will appear on your screen asking you to confirm the new PIN.
Once you confirm it, your PIN will be changed to the new one instantly. After resetting your PIN, you can now proceed to the next step, which is initiating the airtime transfer.
How to Transfer Airtime From Glo to MTN
I understand that you’re hoping to get a code to transfer airtime from Glo to MTN, but unfortunately, there isn’t a direct USSD code for that.
It would have been convenient if I could just say “You can transfer airtime from Glo to MTN by dialing #====#”, but that’s not possible. Glo only has a code to transfer airtime between Glo lines, not to MTN or any other network.
So, if someone claimed they know how to transfer credit from Glo to MTN, it’s not true. While the USSD method would have been the easiest, it doesn’t work for transferring airtime to MTN. However, there may be other methods we can explore to see if they work.
1. SMS Method To Transfer Airtime on Glo to MTN
If you want to transfer airtime from Glo to Glo, you cannot do it via SMS. Glo does not have a feature that allows you to send a text message to a specific number for airtime transfer, whether it’s within Glo or MTN.
However, this doesn’t mean that you can’t transfer airtime from Glo to MTN. There is a trick that can work, but you’ll need to download an external app that allows you to transfer credit from any network to any network in Nigeria.
If you’re interested in knowing the app and how to use it for airtime transfer, keep reading for more details.
2. Transfer Airtime from Glo to MTN Using Tingel App
The app you’ll need to use to transfer airtime from your Glo balance to an MTN line is called the TingTel app.
About The TingTel App
Using the TingTel app to transfer airtime is very simple, and you can do it with just a few clicks. However, keep in mind that there will be a service fee charged for the airtime transfer and other transactions made through the app.
How to Use TingTel App to Transfer Airtime from Glo to MTN
To transfer airtime from Glo to MTN using the TingTel app, follow these simple steps:
- Go to the Google Play Store and download the TingTel app.
- Register an account using the phone number from which you want to transfer airtime. Tip: Use your line’s transfer PIN as your TingTel PIN during account creation.
- After successfully registering, log in to the app and start the airtime transfer process.
- Click on the “Transfer Airtime” option.
- Select the SIM you want to use (Your MTN SIM) from the top.
- Enter the amount of airtime you want to transfer.
- Press “Check Balance” to ensure you have enough credit (2% above the amount to transfer).
- Click on the “Next” button.
- Enter the MTN number you want to credit or transfer airtime to.
- Enter your mobile network transfer PIN.
- Click on the “Transfer” button.
- Check the transaction status in the “History” tab to see if it was successful.
Once done correctly, the airtime will be deducted from your Glo line and credited to your MTN main airtime balance.
Note: While TingTel is generally trusted, be cautious while using the app due to recent complaints, especially regarding the data selling feature.
3. Transfer Airtime From Glo to MTN via Customer Care
I understand that you may have heard from others that you can simply call the Glo customer care line and ask them to transfer airtime from your Glo balance to an MTN number. However, at NetworkPalava, we do our own research to provide our readers with accurate information.
Unfortunately, after conducting our research and speaking with a Glo customer care representative, we found that this method is not possible.
The Glo customer care cannot help you transfer airtime from your Glo number to another Glo number, let alone from Glo to MTN.
So, if you’re looking to transfer airtime from Glo to MTN, Glo customer care is not the solution you need. It’s important to rely on verified methods like using the TingTel app or other trusted means to ensure successful airtime transfer.
4. Using the Glo Self-Care Website (Glo Café)
Yes, you’re right! While there are other features you can use with Glo Easyshare on the Glo Café, unfortunately, transferring airtime from Glo to MTN is not one of them.
The Glo website, despite providing more self-care services, does not have the option to transfer airtime to the MTN network or any other networks.
How to Send Credit From Glo to MTN
Yes, indeed! Sending airtime from Glo to MTN is possible by visiting a nearby retail store, purchasing the desired amount of MTN airtime, and then sending the recharge card pin to the MTN user through a new message on your mobile phone.
Alternatively, if you have a bank account, you can also transfer airtime by recharging the MTN number using your mobile app or bank USSD token. That’s the only solution for transferring or sending airtime from Glo to MTN.
