    That reveals the IMEI number, not the phone number

    Yes I know but that GSM code is not network specific like *#100#

    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.
    OK - *#100# works on my AsdaMobile phone which used to use the T-Mobile network - but now it uses Vodafone, so that's probably why it works!

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

    I've got a Tesco mobile & can confirm this works. (Don't know whether it's free or not though)
