Hustler Fund borrowers to use *254# to access Hustler fund, leading network telcos have announced.
Kenyans who have subscribed to Safaricom, Airtel and Telekom will be required to dial the short code to access the loans after its launch by President William Ruto.
Chelugui says borrowers will use an SMS short code that will take them to a certain menu, leading all the way to the application of the loan.
"We urge members of the public to disregard all forms of communications inviting them to register for funds on a website or via a phone number," he said.
He added that hustlers will only need their phones, as there will be no intermediaries for the process.
"The money will be accessed via phone numbers and respective networks," he said.
The CS also announced an establishment of a call centre that will respond to issues and questions of borrowers. He added that the centre will be active once the fund is launched.
