Missed Call Alert (MCA) is a complimentary MTN service designed to ensure you never lose touch. Whenever your phone is switched off, out of coverage, or unreachable, MCA notifies you via SMS so you remain aware of every important call attempt.
This ensures you stay updated and can return missed calls as soon as you are back on the network.
How It Works
Whenever you miss a call because your phone is switched off, out of coverage or unreachable, you’ll get an SMS the moment your phone reconnects, showing: the caller’s number, the date and the time they tried to reach you.
The best part? It’s absolutely FREE.
