my number

[b4u2]

I know it may be an interesting question but i am eager and curious to know how long i have had my mobile number for, is ther any way to find out? Don't forget it's been through a few digfferent networks

No way that I know of to check that, unless you can remember when you first had it.

The fact 'it's been through a few networks' is the kicker @b4u2

Unless it started with O2, I think it's an impossible task if honest...:smileysad:

Just checked mine

That's interesting @jonsie

Just done mine and it says it's registered to EE (Orange) in Sept 2000.

Which it was originally, until I moved to O2....

It finds the originating network and provides a date allocated to the network so it's seems legit.....

Yes that's what I meant. Clever really...

Very clever - Hutchinson 3G, August 2003!

So, yes @b4u2 you can find out how long you have had your number.

Just checked my other number which is on EE but originated on O2 back in January 2000 so that's how long I've had both my numbers, 18 years!

I can always remember my first mobile phone, a Nokia 7110, so worked it out from the release year for that. In my case around 2000, also 18 years
