New number not on SIM card???

Hi,

I just received my new sim in the post. I received all the paperwork via email which included my new number. However, this new number is written NOWHERE on the packaging? Is this standard? 

The whole reason I wanted to know the number in advance is so I could confidently port my existing giff gaff number across before putting the sim in my temperamental iPhone! The packaging says a-lot about sim swaps which obviously I don’t need as I am a new customer. 

Thanks

It's usually printed on the back of the sim carrier (the bit that's stuck to the packaging).
