my number??

[Guest Jaminben]

I had to buy my phone with £10 credit, however I didn't buy the phone from Orange, it has come with a top up voucher which is redeemable at applyvoucher.com

they require my IMEI number, which i have, however my phone number (on my new orange sim card) i can't find ANYWHERE, literally nowhere on the box, not on the sim card itself, not in any of the booklets... and i've been searching around and there doesn't seem to be any number i can call to bring it up.

all my previous phones have had a "my numbers" section in the phone book, but not this phone!

its really frustrating, does anybody know how to find out your own number on Orange from your own handset? i have activated the Dolphin tarrif, but don't have enough credit to get through to customer services AFTER selecting the option "having trouble adding credit to your phone" so how do they expect you to get through??? arghhh

please help!

cheers!

orange dont give you your number until after sim is activated.... some sims auto activate when inserted into phone as my OSF orange sim did, but on previous orange sims i had to use the number on the sim card itself and register through customer services by a phone call, think you can do on line also.

I dumped my orange sim and went for a giffgaff sim as they do unlimited internet from £10 topup (as a goody bag) pm me and i can intoduce you for a FREE sim with FREE £5 credit (they piggyback on o2) FLB froyo G2 rom for zte comes with giffgaff APN setup app pre installed - plus you can unlock OSF for free = win/win

pm if interested

if your phone sim is activated you just be able to look up number as above post... my £10 credit on orange lasted about 36 hours lol and i made about 3 txts and 1 phone call--- rest went on data usage!!! eek...
