Ever bought a Safaricom SIM card in Ethiopia and totally blanked on your actual phone number?
It’s a total bummer when you need to share it with someone or check your balance.
Don’t worry, we’ve all been there!
Finding Your Safaricom Number: A Step-by-Step Guide
Let’s dig into a few ways to find that number:
1. The Simple SIM Card Trick
Look at your Safaricom SIM card.
It might actually have your number printed right on it.
If not, check the packaging it came in.
That’s where you’ll find it!
2. Dialing the Magic Code
You can also use a super simple code to check your Safaricom number.
Dial *123#“” on your phone.
Boom! You’ll get a pop-up showing your number.
3. Calling Safaricom Customer Service
If you don’t want to use the code, you can always call Safaricom Ethiopia Customer Service.
Just dial +2731 571 5307.
Tell them you need your number, and they’ll be super helpful.
4. Using the Safaricom App
If you have the Safaricom Ethiopia app, you’re in luck!
Open the app and look for a “”My Profile”” section.
Your Safaricom number should be right there.
5. Don’t Forget SIM Card Registration
SIM card registration is a big deal in Ethiopia.
The Ethiopian Communications Authority (ECA) wants to keep track of all mobile services.
Once you register your SIM card, it’s easy to find your number and manage your account.

6. Checking Your Phone Settings
Sometimes, your number is hiding in your phone settings.
Go to “”Settings””, then “”About Phone”” or “”About Device””.
Your Safaricom number might be listed there.
7. The Friend Trick
If all else fails, you can always ask a friend to call you.
You’ll see their number on your screen, and you can figure out your own from there.
It’s a little old school, but it works!
