My number on SIM

Anonymous
Not applicable

How the heck do I get my phone number to show up on my SIM?

If I do the About Phone - Status bit the My Number bit just says unknown.

I have an app that needs to SIM to know what my number is.

How do I get it on the SIM?

You could try ringing customer services and asking them but you cannot do it yourself for certain

I have had two online chats with the 02 Guru's who did not know what to do!

Thanks for the advice anyway folks.

I will try again and see if I can get them to sort it.

You can put your sim (with an adapter) in an older phone such as a Nokia/Sony which will allow you to write the number to the simcard.

If you pop into an O2 store (quiet time preferable) and I'm sure they can help you with the range of phones they have.

I believe an older android phone running 4.1 or below will allow you to do it as well

Let us know how you get on after speaking to them
