Let’s begin!

Why is GLO Deducting My Airtime?

GLO deducts your airtime for various reasons, such as:

1. You have **borrowed airtime** from GLO and have not repaid it yet. GLO automatically deducts the borrowed amount from your next recharge. If they don’t, you can dial *321# or *777# and choose the ‘Repay Loan’ option, and the amount will be deducted immediately.

2. You have subscribed to unsolicited SMS, calls, and value-added services** that charge you for receiving or sending messages, calls, or content. 

3. You are browsing the internet without a data plan or after your data plan has expired. This may cause your airtime to be deducted at a pay-as-you-go rate. To avoid this, you should always have an active data plan and check your data balance regularly.

4. You transferred or shared airtime with another GLO user. This may deduct your airtime balance by the amount you transferred or shared. The minimum transferable amount is N50, and the maximum is N1000 at a time.

5. You have subscribed to “GLO Always ON,” a prepaid subscription offer allowing you to retain your phone number for one full year (365 days), regardless of whether you have used your line. This service charges a one-time fee of N500 from your main account balance when you dial *777# and select Always On from the menu.
