3 Simple Ways You To Check Airtel Phone Number For Free
I know you are already eager to ask: what is the code to check my Airtel number? Or how can I check my Airtel mobile number using SMS? This is how:
To Check Airtel Phone Number By Using Code
Dial *121# from the Airtel line you want to check
Press 3 and send to select ‘Manage My Account’
Press 4 (press 7 for java phones) and send to select ‘My Number’
You will receive a notification on your phone displaying your Airtel phone number after the steps above have been completed.
Check Your Airtel Line By Sending Call Me Back SMS
Dial *140*Airtel Number#
Check the phone of the owner of the Airtel number you used. You’ll see a call me back message displaying your own Airtel Personal Number as the sender.
This 2nd method is only applicable where you have some close to you using an Airtel line. If not, you will have to adopt the 1st method.
Even if some beside you are an Airtel network subscriber, it is traditional that you request for their number and call them to see your own Airtel phone number. But, if you don’t have airtime to make a call – you will then have to send call me-back SMS.
Lastly;
To Know Your Airtel Phone Number By Calling Customer Care Service
Dial 111 from your mobile phone dialer app
Press number 1 to 5 to select any language of your choice. (1 for English, 2 for Hausa, 3 for Pidgin, 4 for Igbo and 5 for Yoruba)
Then, press 1 for ‘Manage Your Line’ option
Press 6 for ‘Know Your Number’ option
Now, listen to the robotic voice prompt that calls out your Airtel phone Number. Your number will be called in this format: 80223334**. Just add 0 at the beginning.
NOTE: You should get a means of writing down your number before calling the Customer care service number.
All of the above methods are free. You do not have to buy or load a recharge card to use any of the methods to get your Airtel number.
