Back then, it was a wonderful effort on the part of MTN to launch a self care app, but today almost every operator has one for its subscribers.
This is due to the increased use of mobile devices, faster connectivity, and rising expectations of users for an instant, hassle-free service. Telecoms enjoy a variety of benefits with these self care apps.
