Many will agree with me that it can be a bit difficult to know a new 9mobile number offhand especially if the numbers are not easy to remember. It does not get any easier when you have multiple sims.
The major reason why most people own several sims is because of the unique offers from 9mobile’s several packages. For instance, Etisalat/9mobile moreflex prepaid plan gives up to 300% bonus when you purchase any of the bundle plans while 9mobile morelife plan ensures you make calls for low as 15k/second. Therefore, making a choice could be a tough one.
However, there is a need to know how you can check your Airtel line anytime and any day, that is if you have not known your Airtel number off hand. Besides, you do not want to be caught unaware when you suddenly bumped into an old friend and there is an urgent need to continue from where you stopped. You are going to love to give your contact out.
Meanwhile, there is no reason to feel agitated if you do not know your Airtel number, there are a good number of ways available to check it. In this article, I will provide you with 5 working methods on how to know your Airtel number:
Method 1: Check your 9mobile number via USSD code
USSD has proven to be valuable for both the telecom and customers, it makes it easy for customers to access some services without the need to contact any 9mobile agent. It is highly interactive and almost like speaking to your 9mobile customer care.
The icing on the cake is that it is free to use and does not take much of your time.
- To know your 9mobile phone number, simply open your phone’s dialer pad and key in *248#.
- A response should follow swiftly once dialled. If you are not getting the response, you should try again.
Method 2: Contact the 9mobile customer care for help
The above method works well but if you feel that you need to talk to 9mobile rep concerning your Airtel number, then you are in good hands.
9mobile Nigeria has capable hands to help you ease into the moment. You will find them on Facebook, Twitter, and almost on every platform including at the 9mobile experience center. Going to 9mobile’s office is one soured way to waste your time especially if you can reach out to them by calling 200 on your 9mobile’s number.
To get your 9mobile number, call 9mobile customer care via 200 and request for your Airtel number. Calling via 200 is free.
Method 3: Call someone to get your 9mobile number
It should not be difficult to get another number to call if you are having a problem with remembering your Airtel number. The plan is to dial a friend’s number from your phone and have your Airtel number forwarded to you.
If they are not with you, you can just make a 10 seconds call, instructing your friend or family to send your phone number to you via WhatsApp or SMS.
Method 4: Text a friend
Another alternative is to make use of the SMS feature on your phone to check your Airtel number. This involves sending a text message to a contact on your phone, requesting them to reply with your phone number if they are not with you.
However, I will always favour USSD dialling over this method. Besides, it is free and replies are always instant.
Method 5: Use *200# to check your 9mobile number
This is almost as similar as the first method except that this is a self-service platform for 9mobile. You will be able to carry out some actions using the *200# ussd code, without the need to reach out to experts.
The other services available on this USSD code include airtime purchase, data purchase, tariff plan, top-up from bank and kwikmoney.
To know your Airtel number, follow the below procedures:
- Open your phone’s dialer pad and enter *200#.
- Dial *200# to receive a list of options.
- Reply with “2” which is tagged “My account”
- Select “Show number” by replying with “5”
- Your 9mobile number will instantly be displayed on your phone’s screen.
- Alternatively, you can dial *200*2*5# which I believe to be a quicker way to check your 9mobile number.
Note: If you are also on other networks, you will also be able to check your Airtel number, Glo number and MTN number.
