How to Check Glo Number on Your Phone
There are three different ways by which you can check Glo number. The first is by calling a dedicated four-digit number that announces the number to your hear; the second is by dial a USSD code – as you expected, USSD code must be involved; the third is by visiting Glo SelfCare website, which displays the number on the dashboard.

How to check Glo number using the dedicated four-digit number
As I have already stated above, the first way to checking your Glo number is by dialling a four-digit number. To do this, launch the dialer app on your phone and call 1244. The Glo SIM card on which you dial the number should be the one you want to check its number.
After dialling 1244, a machine would pick up the call and a lovely voice would announce your number; don’t forget to have a piece of paper and a pen around to write down the number. That’s how to check Glo number using the four-digit number.
Now let’s go to the second way.

How to check Glo number with USSD code
Definitely, a USSD code must be involved. Almost all services on the mobile phone are now done using USSD code; even with USSD codes, you can send money and load airtime (or should we call it credit?) on your SIM card. So there is also a USSD code for checking Glo number.
As for the steps on how to check Glo number using USSD code on your phone, open the dialer app again, but this time, you should dial *135*8# — that’s the official USSD code for checking Glo number. After dialling the code, your number would be displayed in the international number format (i.e. your number with start with +234, the Nigerian international call code).
For example, if your number is 08056999494, dialling the USSD code for checking Glo number would make the number show as +2348056999494. The “0” in your number has been replaced by Nigeria international call code “+234”.
