This is to bring to your notice some changes on the Sender's ID option. Some of the network providers
have recently included some measures on their server to curtail fraud as its
rate increases daily.
Some of these measures are:
1. GLO Nigeria does not allow the usage of Phone numbers as the Sender's ID, as well
as the inclusion of Phone numbers in the body of the message.
2. MTN
Nigeria does not allow the use Promo, Y’ello, MTN etc in a message or as the
Sender’s id.
3. Mixing
alphabets with numbers such as FECA 2013 as Sender Id is not accepted on all
networks.
4. Usage of
numeric characters less than 11 digits such as ‘999’, ‘3021’ or ’777’ as Sender
Id is not accepted on all networks.
You may be charged and the messages will not get delivered
when any of these measures is ignored, we would not be able to refund the units
charged because we would be billed as well for the messages. So to avoid this, you need to take note of
these measures.
