    1. How to access the M’Booste Service

    The Mascom Airtime Credit Service is accessible to qualifying Customers via the following options:

    USSD (by dialling *175# and selecting the Airtime Credit option)

     

    1. Fees and Payment

    6.1       A service fee calculated at various percentages of the amount advanced will apply per transaction. (25% for P2,  25%

    for  P5, 20% for P10, 15% for P20 and P30 )

    6.2       Mascom may amend the service fee in its sole and absolute discretion without prior notification to customers.

    6.3       The total amount payable by the qualifying Customer will be the relevant service fee together with  the amount of airtime or data that has been provided to the Customer. The Customer will be liable to pay the total value.

    Example: A customer takes P10 (Ten Pula) Airtime Credit airtime and recharges with P20 (Twenty Pula).  Mascom will deduct P10 + P2 (Service Fee) = P12 (Twelve Pula) and the Customer’s airtime balance will be P8 (Eight Pula).

    6.4  Should the qualifying Customer recharge with a lower denomination than that of the total value owed, the full

    amount of the recharge will be deducted until the full value of the airtime has been recovered.

    Example: A customer takes P10 (Ten Pula) Airtime Credit airtime and recharges with P5 (Five Pula).  Mascom will immediately deduct P5 (Five Pula) and the customer’s outstanding Airtime Credit balance will be P7 (Seven Pula) including the service fee of P2 (Two Pula).

    6.5 Customers who wish to port-out to another Telecommunications provider, will be able to do so when the

    outstanding Mascom Airtime Credit Service balance owed (including the Service fee) has been paid in full.

    6.6  Customers that have an outstanding airtime or data bundle advance who wish to migrate to a Post-paid package will be allowed to do so, and the outstanding balance owed will be added to their Post-paid account bill.
