and I'll delete my own thread once I get an answer but I want to use an old sim card and can't remember the number, there is no money on it so can't use it to phone the house number, any clues as to what to do :o

    which network is it on? might be worth calling the top up number, some read out the phone number to you.

    What phone do you have, most phones have an option to display the number of the sim

    Look in your phonebook menu

    If you could tell me what model of Samsung you are using I could download a manual

    Checked the phonebook and nothing, its a 330 I think? I have an A800 that I can try the sim in as when you suggested looking in the phone that rang a bell...

    sorry, I had a look at the manual and the own number section is only to allow you to put your number in.

    Best thing to do is ring 450 and talk to CS

    Thanks for all your help. I'll do that tomorrow and write the number down somewhere! Daughter's phone is broke and I found this sim in an old phone and it would be useful to use it again as it has the lifetime 5 free texts on it.

    If it has free texts can you just text someone and then they will be able to give you your number
