How to load an MTN over-scratched card

Long before, the issue concerning over-scratching of recharge cards was rampant and common. This was highly caused because, recharge cards pins then were securely covered with a silver panel, and in order to see and load the recharge card you have to scratch off the silver lining.

Since you have to scratch the card before getting the pin, people sometimes do mistakenly over-scratch the silver lining in a way that it erases some digits or numbers of the recharge card pin.

Although at the moment, most MTN recharge cards no longer come with a silver lining where you have to scratch any stuff in order to load your recharge card.

Most MTN recharge cards are printed on mere papers now where the airtime pin are no longer covered.

But then, irrespective of the change, people are still suffering and complaining about issues where they can’t see some digits of their recharge card pin.

Since the recharge card is written on paper, things like moist or watery hands can cause some of the digits to easily clean off, or sometimes folding the card roughly could also result in a loss of some of the card pins.
