Short answer: there is no secret code that gives you free mobile balance or free data, those "tricks" are either outdated, fake, or scams designed to steal your money or account. What does work is your carrier's official balance-transfer service and legitimate low-cost data packs. Here is the truth, plus how to spot the scams.
