Have you ever sent an important SMS to customers and heard stories like, “Your message didn’t come in!”?
Or worse… nobody responds at all? 😩
You’re not alone. This is one of the biggest problems businesses face in Nigeria today when sending bulk SMS. And most times, the real reason is something called DND.
Let’s break it down in a very simple way.
What Is DND in Nigeria?
DND meansDo Not Disturb.
It is a service by Nigerian networks (MTN, Glo, Airtel, 9mobile) that allows people to block promotional SMS.
So when someone activates DND on their line:
- Theywill not receive adverts
- Theywill not receive bulk promotional texts
- They may only receiveimportant service messages from banks or networks
This is good for the user, but for businesses… it can be a serious headache 😅
Why Your Bulk SMS Is Not Delivering
Here are the main reasons:
- Many Nigerians have activated DNDMost people activated it because of too many spam messages in the past.
- You are using a regular SMS line, not a proper bulk SMS platformNormal phone lines cannot bypass DND.
- Your sender ID is not registered or trustedUnregistered IDs are easily blocked by networks.
- Wrong routing or poor SMS gatewaySome platforms use cheap routes that don’t deliver well in Nigeria.
