For instance, borrow me credit which is an incentive given by most mobile communication networks like MTN, GLO, AIRTEL etc., to their customers, does well to enable them to borrow units of stipulated amounts when they run out of airtime for their mobiles at odd times. These odd times could be, lack of money to buy airtime to make or complete an important call, it’s in the middle of the night and airtime vendors are closed or simply that one’s airtime runs out in an area where vendors aren’t close by.
When the customer punches on the right codes attribute to the network provider, credit is loaded on the customer’s phone. The network provider would then get back their money whenever the customer recharges as well as little charges for the service rendered.
