Knowing your Glo number is essential for managing your account, recharging, and accessing various Glo services. Fortunately, there are several simple ways to check your Glo number, whether you're a new subscriber or a long-time user. This guide will walk you through the various methods, ensuring you can quickly and easily find your Glo number anytime you need it.
How to Check Your Glo Number Using USSD Codes
The most common and arguably easiest method is using a USSD code. USSD codes are short codes that you dial directly from your phone, without needing internet access. For Glo, the code to check your number is incredibly straightforward:
- *Dial 123# and press the call button. The system will respond with your Glo phone number. This method works regardless of your current data balance or network connection status. It's the perfect solution for those in areas with poor network coverage or limited data.
Checking Your Glo Number Through the MyGlo App
Glo offers a user-friendly mobile application called MyGlo. This app provides a convenient platform for managing your account, checking your balance, purchasing data bundles, and, of course, viewing your phone number.
- Download the MyGlo app: The app is available on both the Google Play Store (for Android devices) and the Apple App Store (for iOS devices).
- Register and log in: Follow the on-screen instructions to register and log in to your account. Your Glo number will be prominently displayed on your profile.
- Access your number: Once logged in, the app will display your number in your profile section. This is a convenient way to access your number and manage other account details at the same time.
Finding Your Glo Number on Your SIM Pack
For new subscribers, the SIM pack often includes your phone number. While this method isn't always reliable as you might misplace the packaging, it's worth checking if you have your original packaging handy. Look for the SIM pack and carefully check for a sticker or printed information detailing your Glo number.
Checking Your Glo Number Through a Missed Call
Although less common, some users find their Glo number printed on their missed call history on another phone, if they've contacted a friend or family member who has a different network before finding your number. This is only useful if you have a recent missed call notification on another device.
What to Do If You're Still Unable to Find Your Glo Number
