MTN Nigeria has stated that it will stop supporting Blackberry services as from the 27th of January.
It informed its Blackberry service subscribers via a text message as shown below.
“Dear customer, MTN Blackberry service will be decommissioned on 27/01/2017. Please upgrade to a smartphone and enjoy 100% bonus on any data bundle purchased “
Glo Nigeria stopped offering Blackberry service last month when it sent out a similar message to its subscribers.
“Dear Customer, starting December 17, 2016 BlackBerry services on your device (BBOS7 devices) will no longer be available. You can still continue to use the device to Call and Text. We request you to migrate to a BB10, Android, Windows or IOS handset to use your remaining data.”
Etisalat Nigeria stopped the service in November 2016
In the case of MTN Nigeria, it is unclear if BBOS7 and BB10 devices are affected by this message.
