What do I type into my Nokia 100 to find the mobile telephone number on the sim card (Tesco issue) not stolen.

    Try *#100# (send/call) on your phone. or if you have credit, call a home/mobile and don't answer it, but you can get the number off that way.
  • To no avail but was worth a go, thanks.

    *#100# should have worked. Did you put the * (star) before the hash

    Tesco Mobile uses the O2 network, therefore texting Number to 2020 should get you a text back showing your number

    I thought *#100# worked on all networks in the UK?

    Just tested on O2 and GiffGaff (which is also O2) and both showed an error of 'Unknown Service Code'

    I've never known it to work other than on Vodafone where the number is returned. Definitely does not work on Orange or T-Mobile and Figment has already confirmed that O2 doesn't work.

    *#06# works on all networks.

    That reveals the IMEI number, not the phone number
