How to know my mobile number

Its pretty much obvious that you tend to forget your own mobile number, especially when you are kind of person who tends to have many different SIM cards (may be 1 SIM of each company :-P ).

In such cases its really obvious that you may not remember the number for all those SIM cards. And also its not very good to give a missed call to person beside you just to know what's your number. Well, there a way you can know your own number using your own cell phone. Most of you may be aware of this thing but still I'm sharing it for those who may not be knowing it.

So, here's the catch. Just dial ' *1# ' (obviously without the quotes) and press the call button. You'll get the number of the SIM from which you made this call right on your mobile screen in just few seconds.

Now, the code '*1#' works most of the times for most of the service providers(SIM cards), but sometimes it may not work and you may need to use other code. Below is the list of codes for different SIM cards. Again, the codes in list depends on the state you live in so it may or may not work sometime and you need to give it a try.
  • For MTS - Type 'NUM' (without quotes) and send SMS to 51230, you'll get a response SMS with your number.
  • Aircel       - *888# , *131#
  • Vodafone - *777*0# , *131*0# , *555#
  • Airtel        - *121*9#
  • Docomo  - *580#
  • BSNL      - *888#
  • Idea         - *789#
  • Uninor     - *444#
  • MTNL     - *8888#
  • Any other - *1#
