MTN secret code for free call
There is no secret code for making free calls on MTN, but the methods I will show you below will help you start making free calls on the MTN Network.
Method 1: Making a Receiver Pays Call
The first method to make a free call on MTN is by making a receiver pay for a call. To do this, dial the MTN code *121*recipient number# on your MTN line. Once you have dialed the code and number, you will receive a response from MTN stating that they will try to verify if the call’s intended sponsor (receiver) has the appropriate tariff plan.
However, it is worth noting that this service has been discontinued, and making receiver-pay calls on MTN may no longer be possible.

Method 2: Flashing
Another method but which does not require any secret code for free call on MTN is by “flashing” a number without credit. To do this, ensure you have a 0.00k airtime balance and are not qualified for the MTN XtraTime Service. Then, dial the phone number you want to beep with zero credit using your phone dialer.
When you flash someone, you are making a missed call to their number. The person will be notified that you have called, and they can decide whether to call you back. The person you are flashing may still need to use their own airtime to contact you back, so it is vital to be aware that this method is only half free.

Method 3: Call Me Back Feature
The “Call Me Back” feature is another method to make free calls on MTN. This feature allows you to send a message to someone asking them to call you back. To use this feature, dial the code *133# and follow the prompts to send the message.
When you send the message, the person will receive a notification that you are requesting them to call you back. They can then choose to call you back, and you can have a conversation without using up your airtime. The person you ask to call you back could still have to pay their own airtime to call you, so it’s worth noting that this method is only partially free.
