However, on rare occasions, if the mobile operator of the prepaid number you selected to recharge is experiencing delays then the Mobile Recharge could take 12 to 24 hours. This depends entirely on the mobile operator in the country of your recharge. If after 24 hours the Mobile Recharge has not been received, then please get in touch with the mobile operator directly. The contact information for the operator is available on the invoice. Alternatively you can let us know after 24 hours, so that we can contact the operator for you.

The status will then charge to “Successful”.
The “Failed” status can also result for: incorrect mobile number, incorrect operator-number combination entered, post-paid instead of prepaid mobile number entered, mobile number is not yet activated etc. Please recheck the information you entered to make sure all information is valid.

What can I do if I recharged the wrong number?Unfortunately, we cannot retrieve recharges that were sent to the wrong number or operator. These transactions are considered complete and we cannot retrieve or refund them since a successful online payment leads to immediate credit availability on the recharged mobile. Please carefully check and double-check the number you enter.
-
Why did the phone I recharged not receive the promotional bonus?If the bonus was not received, you or the beneficiary should get in touch with the mobile operator directly.
