How to Migrate your Visafone to MTN Network



--AD--

It is no longer news that MTN has acquired Visafone despite the fact that Etisalat filed a suit against the acquisition early this year. The Visafone customer migration is a simple process of migration that allows all VISAFONE numbers work on the MTN network and function as a GSM service.


Since the CDMA network has now been acquired by another service provider MTN, subscribers of Visafone will now have to upgrade their SIM to the GSM network in order to enjoy the improved service and coverage.
