How To Know Your Own Mobile Number in Globe, TM, Smart, TNT, DITO, GOMO (1)

Memorizing our own mobile number seems to be the hardest part of owning a cell phone. In the Philippines, telecom companies like Globe, TM, Smart, TNT, Sun, GOMO, and DITO provide an 11-digit mobile number which is pretty long to memorize instantly, especially when you have just bought a new sim card. And it's a hassle when you badly need to give your contact number to others, or you need to reload your sim card.

Thankfully, there are more than a few simple ways to quickly look up your phone number, even if you are using an old handset phone or a new smartphone like an Android, iOS, or Windows phone, and a sim card with load or even without load. If you forgot your mobile number, these tips could greatly help. In this tutorial, the methods for checking a sim card number are categorized by type of phone and load balance.

Android Phone

The process can vary from phone to phone. They are not all alike. The following method used is for Android Stock OS:

Go to Settings > About phone/device > Status. You might see the number listed here. If not, tap the SIM status to open another menu. Scroll down a bit here, and you should see your number listed in My phone number. Alternatively, you can go to the phone's Settings and search for the 'sim' keyword. Select the SIM cards & mobile networks or SIM management from the results, and then you can now see your mobile number. These methods might not work for some networks or old sim cards, which will typically show Unknown. See other methods below.

iPhone (iOS)

Go to Settings > Phone, and you should be able to see your phone number displayed at the top of the screen.

Windows Phone

Open the Phone app > Tap on the three-dot icon in the bottom corner > Select Settings. At the top of the page, you will see your phone number.
