9Mobile and Sterling bank said the phone is free… Is it
truly free?
truly free?
If the money in my account is not tampered with, then i think its not really a bad idea to leave it for a one year period. What happens when one defaults in monthly deposit?
Its nt a bad deal,,,I hope dre's no hidden charges oop.bcos dis people can be funny atimes
I smell something fishy here.
Ghostwriter
although, if the money I'm to deposit isn't tampered with, it just might be a good deal
It doesn't sounds so good, something fishy is behind it
When this promo dey end?
alright…good one
Very nice deal
The phone specifications are ok
Nothing they say is free i Freetown. Sterling and Etisalat with their yeye brain..
I don't think it can be free for everybody cause people will surely deposit 10k
And if I fail to to deposit the =N=1,105 every months, will they take my money?
my thoughts exactly and besides are there hidden charges
I chatted them up and here is there response…….

They just want to exploit Nigerians using subtle means.
Hidden charges are there. Banks cannot be trusted
Lolz. Me i can't do this. Not a good idea for me.
That is marketing at its best I personally applaud all the strategist behind this
So what happen when you fail to complete the #5,105 every month deposits. Will they withdrew the phone from you and how? Is it a one sim card phone or what going to happen then?
Lol… Sterling bank. Anyway, I nor do :p
It's smell fishy anyway
I just chatted them up on there website. The #5105 you pay monthly is part installmental payment for the phone. So they are not giving out the phone for free rather you paying #61260 stretch over a period of 12months. Would have upload the chat screen shoot but i can't find any upload button in the comment box
