There are several ways to check your mobile number from your SIM card, as explained below:
Asking the Carrier: Depending on your carrier, you may be able to call or text a special number that will display the code on the screen. You can also send a text message or call another phone. If the SIM card is active, you can text or call another person and ask them what phone number they see.
Check SIM Card in iPhone Settings: Insert the SIM into your iPhone. Once your iPhone recognizes the SIM card, it will figure out the attached phone number (if there is one). Scroll down and tap Phone. Find the phone number next to "My Number." It's about halfway down the page. This displays the number associated with the SIM card you've inserted.
Check SIM Card in Android Settings: Open your Android's Settings app. Tap About Phone or About Device. Tap My phone number or Phone Identity. The name of this option will vary depending on your device and Android version. This displays the number associated with the SIM card you've inserted.
Check Your Number in Settings: Insert the SIM Card into your Phone or scan the QR code if it is an e-SIM. Navigate to the device settings once the SIM is recognized. If it is an iPhone, tap on the “phone” options, and navigate to my Number. You can see the number of active SIM on your phone. The settings work a bit differently for android devices. Go to settings, navigate to About phone, and tap on status. You can also check the phone number associated with your SIM card from the Messages app settings menu.
Use USSD Codes or Contact Your Network Carrier: Some cellular networks have unique shortcodes for checking phone numbers. These codes are mostly cost-free, and the result is instant. Dial the shortcode and the number assigned to the SIM card on your phone will appear on the screen as a service message. You can also call your service provider to check the number of your SIM. The representative might ask for information to determine your number. Once you have successfully completed the verification process, the representative will tell you the digits of your number.
Overall, the easiest way to check your mobile number from your SIM card is to insert the SIM card into your phone and navigate to the device settings. From there, you can find the phone number associated with the SIM card.
