This particular service of using ussd code is very simple and easy. But, it is important to note that first time users of this code are expected to register for a 4 digit PIN, which serves as a means of restricting access from an unauthorized users of your phone.
So, when choosing a PIN for the transaction, I would advice you use a 4 digit PIN that only you can easily remember when needed, and also to make the pin hard for others to guess easily. If you are an old user and would want to change to a stronger pin, then contact UBA customer care for a Pin reset.
