Its important to know first and foremost that the people who are allowed to borrow airtime on Airtel are those that have been Airtel subscribers for up to two months. That is to say that you cannot borrow airtime from Airtel immediately you get your sim card, you need to have been an active subscriber for up to two months. 

 Now, I’ll be giving you the step by step method on how to borrow airtime on Airtel Network.

Step 3 

After the options above have been displayed, you should then reply with the amount you would like to borrow. Let’s assume that you click on option 5 for borrowing N200, that would give you a reply that looks like this:

You have been credited with N200

9. Go back. 

Step 4

At this point you can press cancel or the end key. You would get a message from Airtel stating that you have been credited with the amount you chose and that a service fee of 15% has been deducted from it. This means that, if you borrow N200 from Airtel, you would get N170. In a few seconds later the airtime would appear on your balance. 

Please note that when you want to borrow airtime from Airtel, Airtel looks at how frequent you recharge and how much you spend on an average. 

This would help the telecom company determine how much you can borrow at that time. Also, you would be considered “borrowing rights” that is, being allowed to borrow airtime on Airtel when you have finished paying up your previous debts you owe.
