Cant find my phone number

So I ordered and picked up my new phone online in carphone warehouse. I can't find anywhere my new number or transaction number. All I have is my order number on the email confirmation and dispatch. Is there anything I'm missing to get it.

 

Thanks.

Hello @Jacklyn93,

The number should be on the packet the SIM Card came in.

You can find your mobile number also by putting the SIM into the phone and ringing a friend or family and getting them to confirm.

 

The Transaction number should only be needed for the switching of your old number.

You can do this without the transaction number also on a different form.

Hello @Jacklyn93,

 

What error are you getting when trying to register?

Have you tried a different browser?

 

You’ll need to enter:

 

The account holder’s last name 

Mobile number

Account holder’s date of birth

 

Account holder = person who purchased the contract, not the intended user

 

Let us know how you get on and what error code you receive.

Hello @Niamh H,

What is it you needed help with?

It’s possible your coverage/signal/WiFi is too weak to mainatain the chat.

 

Happy to look into any issues you’re facing or PM you if needed.

If you can give us a bit of information on this.
