What is a PUK Code
A PUK code is an abbreviation for "Personal Unlock Key." It is a unique code linked to your mobile phone's SIM card and is usually eight digits long.
A PUK code is required if you have set a SIM Card lock and entered the wrong passcode three times.
The PUK code is a crucial piece of information. Hence, before sending it to you, an Mtn agent verifies that the requester is the phone number owner.
