      This may happen for 2 reasons:

      1. You may have just joined the network recently thus not meeting the minimum age in network of 3 months. It may also be as a result of not regularly loading airtime on your AIRTEL line.
      2. You may have an unpaid loan balance. You must settle this first before applying again.
