Can't my mobile phone number

Really obliged if someone could help me please.

I bought a VF345 vodafone mobile from Argos this morning. When I got home I successfully activated the sim card. The problem I have is that I can't find the mobile number. I have tried ringing #100# and on the screen it said "unknown command". I have also tried in the settings menu for my numbers and it said it is empty. Without the number I obviously won't be able to receive calls and I also can't register the phone.

This is my first mobile phone and this is really stressing me out . I really don't what to do.

If anyone could give me some advice I would really appreciate it.

surely the no was listed on the box or the packet the sim card came in!

If you can't work out how to find the number on the phone itself then simply call a phone that has calling number display. Either your landline phone or a family member or friend's mobile.

And if no-one answers the call it won't cost anything either

Thanks ellie666, I have looked all over the box and the packaging for the sim card and there is no number.

Oh just remembered it's *#100# to reveal your own number on the phone. You just misssed out the * at the beginning

Thanks Chris
I rang my home phone and got my mobile number on 1471.

Thanks so much for suggesting that. I feel so daft that I didn't think of doing that myself.
My number still isn't showing on my mobile phone .

Chris, I have just seen your last post and at long last it worked, I can now see my mobile number.

Thank you so much for your help, I feel so stupid, but as I said this is my first mobile it is all it daunting to me at the moment.
