New SIM telephone number?
gwynne
01-05-2011
I have just baught a new pay as you go Vodaphone SIM card but cannot find a way of determining its alloted telephone number.
This means I cannot register it or 'top-up' the account!
I'm sure when I've previously baught a new SIM the telephone number come with it?
I cannot believe this process should force me to ask for help-million of people every day must be doing it!
Thanks for your help anyway!

Has no-one rung you yet then?
Ring your home phone and then 1471 it, or ring another mobile.
There will also be a menu within your phone which displays your number

I've found that Vodafone don't store the telephone number on the SIM - if you have a suitable phone (like an Android phone) you can edit it once you know what it is.

Have you tried dialing *#100#? I think that's how you can bring up what your number is.

How can you ring anything if you haven't topped up, and how can you be rung if you don't know the number?

What sort of phone is it? Most have somewhere in the menu, an option to bring up the phone number!

Hi gwynne,

QTC13 and moox are absolutely right! If you dial *#100#, your number will appear on the screen.
