Introduction
MTN South Africa is one of the leading mobile providers in the country. If you’re an MTN customer, it’s important to know your phone number for a variety of reasons — from setting up accounts on various websites or services to sharing contact information with friends and family. To help make this task easier, we’ve put together a guide on how to check your number on MTN South Africa. Read on to find out more!
Using USSD Codes
The simplest way to check your number on MTN South Africa is by using USSD codes (Unstructured Supplementary Service Data). These are special codes that allow customers to access their account information without having to log into any online portals or call customer service. All you need is a working mobile device and network coverage. Here’s how it works:
- Open the dialer app.
- Dial *123# and press send.
- You will then be presented with several options – select “My Number”.
- Your number will then be displayed as well as other useful information such as airtime balance, data bundle balance etc.
Using MyMTNApp
If you prefer not having to use USSD codes every time you want to check your number, then another option available for MTN customers is the MyMTNApp. This app allows users access all their account details such as balances, data bundles and even manage payments all from one place – no more hassle manually checking each individual thing separately! Here’s how it works:
- Download and install the MyMTNApp from either Google Play Store or Apple App Store depending if you have an Android/ iOS device respectively.
- Once installed open the app & login using your registered Mobile Number & Password / PIN Code created upon registration
- Now select “My Profile” which can be found at bottom right corner once logged in
- Here you can view & manage various aspects related specifically only for yourself like changing profile picture , updating email address , viewing payment history etc
- Finally scroll down till end where under ‘Account Information’ tab there will be listed your current active Mobile Number
.
Conclusion As seen above there are two different ways through which customers can easily check their own numbers – via USSD code or simply by downloading & using MyMTNApp . Both methods provide almost same amount of convenience but personally I would recommend latter since here apart from being able just view our own specific details also has benefit being able quickly manage other aspects related only directly us like payment history , data bundles etc .
