After listening to voice prompts for a long time, you will have the opportunity to connect with a live operator, with whom you can clarify the information you need.
Sometimes simple solutions do not come to our minds right away. For example, if you are not left alone in a situation where you urgently need to find out your number, just call the person who is next to you. Your number will appear on the screen, and you can safely write it down.
Those who have a poor memory for numbers will be helped by a contact in the phone book called “My Megaphone Number” - just write down the treasured numbers there, and you can find out your number at any time.
Call a friend
- Just dial any contact from the phone book or from memory;
- Ask your interlocutor to name the data displayed on the screen.
In addition, you can use another method where the help of a friend/relative/colleague will be useful. You need to do the following:
- On the keyboard, dial the code *143*79ХХХХХХХХХ#;
- Instead of the “X” characters, enter the phone number of any person from your contact lists;
- Within a few seconds, the subscriber will receive an SMS from your cell phone and will be able to provide you with the necessary information.
If you do not have enough funds for this operation, you can use the Megafon option - call at a friend’s expense.
View in the contract
When purchasing a SIM card, an agreement was attached to it indicating the communication services of the operator; using it you can find out your number, which is indicated when concluding the agreement. The number can also be found by looking at the packaging of the SIM card, which was originally issued with it upon registration.
This option is mostly simple when compared with the previous ones, because if you saved the documents that originally came with the SIM card when you purchased it, then using them you can find this information yourself, using the data in the contract or the packaging of the card itself.
