I entered the wrong phone number, meter or smartcard number

What to do if you paid a bill for the wrong recipient.

When you pay a bill, we send it to the number you enter. If that number is valid but wrong, the provider delivers it there. We can't reverse it.

Airtime and data: Airtime or data sent to a wrong number can't be recovered. If you know the owner of the number, you can ask them to send it back. Some networks offer a transfer service.

Electricity and cable TV: If the meter or smartcard belongs to someone else, contact your distribution company or TV provider with the payment details. They may be able to help. We can't move a payment that the provider has accepted.

Betting: Contact your betting platform with the customer ID and the Transaction ID.

If the number doesn't exist: The provider usually rejects the payment. It shows Reversed in History, and your money goes back to your wallet.

How to avoid this next time

  • For electricity and cable, check the customer name shown before you tap Continue.

  • On the web, use Verify and check the name before you tap Purchase.

  • Copy betting customer IDs from your betting account.

  • For saved numbers, check the number before you pay.
