Default Retrieving a handset's phone number

I know that to reveal the IMEI number, I dial *#06#. What do I dial
to get the phone number of the handset?

Any other similar codes would be much appreciated.

If it's Vodafone, *#100#

There is no GSM code to do this.

Vodafone UK have chose to implement it by *#100# SEND, no other UK
network has bothered.

As other posters have said *#100# gives the number on Vodafone and
networks using Vodafone (such as Asda mobile). Some phones have the
number of the handset avalible in one of the menu options, My Motorola
V3 shows this under settings, phone status, my tel. numbers.

The ones I know only work on Vodafone these are:

*#100# Gives your phone number
*#101# Not sure
*#102# Not sure
*#103# Gives current date and time
*#104# Gives mailbox number
*#105# not sure
*#147# Last caller details (same as 1471)

Does anyone know what *#101#, *#102 and *#105# results mean?

Doug.

Does a handset have a phone number or is it the Sim Card that has the
number .
I'm presuming that there is no sim card in the phone otherwise you
could call another phone and then get the calling number from THAT
phone by dialling 1471 if it's a BT landline or just looking if it's a
mobile or has caller display .

The handset itself has no telephone number. In fact the SIM doesn't
have a phone number in it either, it just has a unique identification
code. When the SIM card is inserted into a phone and registers on a
network its home network associates the telephone number registered to
it with the handset its being used in.
