How to Unsubscribe from All MTN Services, Subscriptions & VAS in 2025 (Stop Unwanted Deductions) |
Tired of MTN deducting your airtime for services you didn’t request? Learn how to unsubscribe from all MTN services, subscriptions, and VAS in 2025 using simple codes and settings.
Why You Keep Losing Airtime on MTN
MTN users often complain about:
“MTN keeps deducting ₦50 or ₦100 from my airtime daily or weekly!”
These deductions are mostly from:
- Value-Added Services (VAS) like caller tunes, SMS alerts
- News updates, religious quotes, love tips
- Unwanted auto-renewal of data or content subscriptions
The good news is — you can stop these deductions completely.
How to Check Active MTN Subscriptions (VAS)
Before you can unsubscribe, you need to know what you’re subscribed to.
Method 1: USSD Code
Dial *305#
You’ll see:
- A list of all active services
- The charges for each
- The option to cancel them
This is the official MTN VAS menu for Nigeria in 2025.
Method 2: Use MTN “STOP” SMS
Send:
STOP
to:
2442
You’ll receive an SMS listing all third-party subscriptions and how to cancel them.
This is the DND (Do-Not-Disturb) system supported by NCC.
Method 3: Use MyMTN App
- Open MyMTN NG App
- Go to “Account” → “Subscriptions”
- View all active bundles and services
- Click “Unsubscribe” on any you want to stop
How to Unsubscribe & Stop Airtime Deductions
Once you've found the active services, here’s how to remove them:
General VAS Unsubscribe Code
Dial *305*1#
This will cancel most VAS services at once.
Stop Auto Renewal of Data or Bundles
To stop auto-renewal when you buy a plan, always select:
- “1” for one-time purchase
- Avoid pressing “2” which activates auto-renewal
If you already subscribed, send:
STOPDATA
to:
312
Activate DND Mode (Full Block of All Unwanted SMS)
Text:
STOP
to:
2442
You can also dial:
*2442#
Then choose:
- 1: Full DND
- 2: Partial DND (select categories)
This stops all promotional SMS and subscriptions.
