How To Check Airtel Number

Bharti Airtel has been among the leading telecommunications companies in India since its launch back on 7^th July 1995. It has since then taken the responsibility of providing its customer data, telephonic, and mobile talk-time services. With so many people across India using SIM card technology nowadays to gain the best use out of cellular technology, it gets difficult to keep track of so many 10-digit numbers around, especially for the elderly and new people.

When a person gets his/ her own mobile number and once his/ her SIM card is activated, the only number he/ she is definitely not dialing is his/ her own mobile number. In such cases, it becomes quite easy for the end user to forget the mobile number. This can lead to a lot of problems as a person's mobile number is needed in many scenarios, ranging from simple texts from their loved ones to filling data for government databases, checking that all institutions track a person's digital footprint, especially mobile number. It is one of the most essential and primary requirements for the government investigation as well.

So, if you have to share your phone number with someone important, or you want to keep your phone number in general and fill it in or save it somewhere, there are some crucial ways to know your number if you forget it. A traditional method is to make sure you save it somewhere safely on your phone or in your diary, or even better, share it with your friends and family so that your mobile number is in multiple places at a time for your reference. This way, you can easily get your number when you need it.

However, even if you haven't saved your number anywhere, you can still find it. There are different methods depending on the operator of the SIM card. In this article, we are discussing some easy tips that will help you understand how to check your Airtel number.

Checking your Airtel Number using the USSD Code

Insert your current Airtel SIM card into a device that can read the SIM card chip and has cellular technology. Make sure the SIM is not inserted upside down or forced. When inserting the SIM card according to the manual that came with your particular cellular device, check which side of the SIM card will be up, and do not force your way into the SIM card slot.

Once inside, dial the USSD Code: *282#. Make sure the character has no spaces at the start, end, or between the characters. This USSD code is commonly referenced under the subject "Know Your Own Airtel Number".

If your network services are ongoing, you will receive a message flashing your mobile number after submitting the above code. The number is shown in a pop tab, similar to what you also see on messaging apps.

Checking Airtel Phone Number using the Thanks App

The "Airtel Thanks" app is an official app designed by Bharti Airtel for easy online recharge from the comfort of your home without the hassle of going to the recharge center, waiting in line, and so on. However, it also shows the user's mobile number within the application.

One can check his/ her exact phone number on this app using the following steps:

• Download the Airtel Thanks App from the Google Play Store or App Store for iOS users. Make sure you have active mobile data services, a hotspot, or a WIFI network, or the download will fail.
• Once the app has been downloaded, open it and log in / register on the Airtel Thanks App.
  
• Once inside the app, it will automatically sync data with your network, get all your user details, and take you to the app's main screen. Make sure your mobile data is on during this process.
• Go to your profile in the top right corner, click on it, and your 10-digit mobile number will appear right at the top.
  

Checking Airtel Phone Number Using IVR

IVR basically means Interactive Voice Response. It is an automatic chatting system designed to fulfill the problems faced by Airtel customers. If any difficulty is faced, the customer can directly call such numbers, choose one of their problems among those said over IVR (usually including problems that many customers face), or choose the option to dial a technician who can further assist you in solving your query.

• Airtel Customer Care IVR numbers: 198 (call), 121 (call), *121# (IVR messaging service)
  

One can simply call such numbers and press the respective number (or button) on the dialer to choose the associated or recommended option or problem to proceed further on IVR. If you don't see or listen to your specific issue, choose the number (option button, usually 9) to directly call a technician to talk or mention your specific problem. A real person from customer care will be connected to you. By talking to him/ her, you can get your number, which will be provided after verifying the other personal details you might have given to Airtel while registering for a SIM card.
