Finally Airtime transfer is not reversible. Recall that all the above instructions are just examples. You can use any 4-digit number as your password or a 5- digit number in the case of Glo. Just choose a number that is difficult for others to guess, but easy for you to remember. Once you have changed your password, the new password should be used for transfer transactions.
You can always change your password if you feel it has been compromised. In the event that you want to change your password, your current password will assume the place of your default password in the format given for each network for password change. For example, if you have already changed your MTN Share and Sell password from the default 0000 to 4235 and you want to edit it again to 6672, compose a text like this, 4235 6672 6672 and send it to 777, not 0000 6672 6672 this time because your current password is no longer 0000. This principle also applies to other networks. Airtime transfer services provided by all the networks are also accessible via their Service Menu on the phone.
With these steps, you can now happily share your credit (airtime) with your friends and family. Remember to keep you PIN secret and safe though, as it is your only password to transfer.
Good luck!
