What is your opinion about the newly approved unified USSD Codes

Telecommunications operators have adopted the Nigerian Communications Commission’s approval of a Unified Unstructured Supplementary Service Date for all mobile networks in the country.

The implementation which commenced on May 18, 2023, is said to become the only way to purchase airtime and check mobile networks.

Below is a list of the Unified USSD codes for all mobile networks in Nigeria:

Call Centers: 300
Borrow Services: *303#
Stop Service: *305#
Check Balance: *310#
Credit Recharge: *311#
Data Plan: *312#
Data plan balance: *323#
Share Services: *321#

It is, however, important to mention that the commission will not change some codes and their functions; these codes are DND: 2442, Porting services: 3232, NIN Verification and NIN-SIM Linkage: *996#

What do you think NCC is trying to achieve with this?
