How To Check A Sim Card Company By Mobile Number?
- First of all, you need to know the mobile number of your SIM card.
- You can easily check the company name and operator by looking for it on your mobile phone bill. For example, if you have a Telenor SIM card, then you will find the name “Telenor” on the bill, which means that it is Telenor that owns your SIM card.
- Some companies assign different numbers to their customers and they are not always in alphabetical order. So in this case, you can use directory assistance online or directly call them up to find out their mobile number.
- After knowing their mobile number, you can call them up using a landline or using any other calling service provided by them (preferably using a calling service provided by Telenor). You can also send SMS to them or use any other social media applications like WhatsApp and Facebook Messenger if they provide such features for their customers (such as Facebook Messenger). Another option is to send an email to them so that they will get it immediately and reply back to you through an email address provided on their website (preferably through an email address provided on the website of Telenor). Also, ask for a confirmation code from them so that you will be able to access their website/application form where they will provide all relevant information about your mobile number along with other information like its expiry date, etc., etc.
- Nowadays there are many websites where you can get your mobile number details. However, it is important that you use a site that is reliable and secure.

- You will find various options to get information about your SIM card on their website like Mobile Number, Expired Mobile Number, Contact Us, Change My Number, etc.

- Now if you click on the button “Submit” then they will send you an SMS with all relevant information about your mobile number along with some instructions for changing your phone number in case of any update from Telenor as well as some instructions for adding more numbers (if required).
- If there are any updates from Telenor regarding changes in ownership or anything else related to your telco account then they will send you an email with relevant information along with instructions for changing your mobile number. If you don’t find any updates, then it is safe to say that the information provided by the telco is correct.
