I've published a couple of posts on the MTN Back up service so it seems many people are more concerned about how to retrieve their backed up contacts from MTN.

You probably need to know how to get back those numbers you uploaded to MTN's server perhaps you changed your phone, lost it or just lost the numbers.

This blog post is about how to restore or retrieve those numbers and settings you have backed up or saved with MTN Nigeria.

A. If using the same phone with which you synchronized your data
B. If using a different phone

A. If using the same phone:
