On July 1, 2016, the Nigerian Communication Commission (NCC) mandated the telecommunication operators in Nigeria to implement Do-Not-Disturb (DND). Since then, there has been a serious issue with bulk SMS delivery to DND numbers in Nigeria. This issue is as a result of the introduction of the Do-Not-Disturb (DND) service by the GSM Network operators which allows their customers to opt-out of receiving promotional messages for 3rd Party services (Bulk SMS, VAS promos, etc.)
While this development proves okay for some customers who do not want to receive promotional messages for 3rd Party services (Bulk SMS, VAS promos, etc.), it's also a disaster for major customers who are willing to always get important updates for their job interviews, Church announcements etc. In this guide, I'm going to show you how to send bulk SMS to Do-not-Disturb (DND) numbers for all GSM networks in Nigeria (MTN, Airtel, Glo, & 9Mobile (Etisalat)) at no extra cost (just 1 unit).
