My contact has not received the credit. Why not?
Before contacting us, you can check the points below: - Have you topped up the correct number? Sometimes our customers get a digit wrong in the beneficiary’s number, and someone else may receive the credit! Unfortunately, once the top-up has been credited to the wrong number, we cannot cancel it. However, you can contact the wrong beneficiary to ask them to return the credit to the beneficiary if the operator offers credit transfer between users. - Are you sure you have the correct operator of the beneficiary? When you choose a beneficiary, we automatically detect the operator based on the number and the plan for allocating the numbers to the operators. However, if your beneficiary has changed operator while keeping the same number, the top-up request will not be sent to the correct operator and will be rejected. If you realise you have made a mistake, contact our customer service. They will be able to check the top-up and will help you if they can. The beneficiary’s operator may also be encountering temporary technical issues. Sometimes you just have to wait a little for everything to be sorted out. You can also ask the beneficiary to make some checks: - they can check their balance by typing the specific order of their operator - did they request an advance from the operator? In this case, the operator directly deducts the amount of the advance from the top-up you sent! If despite these checks, you do not understand why the beneficiary has not received the top-up you expected, please contact customer service who can look into the matter further and contact the operator directly if necessary.
