Sometimes we forget our own phone number — especially if the SIM is new or rarely used. If you’re an MTN Ghana user and you’re unsure of your number, don’t worry. There’s a simple way to check it directly from your phone.
✅ Method 1: Use MTN Shortcode
1.Dial *156# on your phone
2.Select option 1 (Check My Number)
3.Your MTN phone number will be displayed on the screen
📌 You can write it down or take a screenshot for future reference.
✅ Method 2: Call or Text a Friend
If you have credit or airtime:
•Call or send a text to a friend nearby
•Ask them to read your number back to you (it will appear on their screen)
✅ Method 3: Check SIM Card Packaging
If you still have the SIM card starter pack, your phone number is usually printed on the SIM holder or the booklet that came with it.
