If you have airtime or bundles:
-
Send an SMS or make a call to a friend or family member.

They’ll see your number displayed on their phone.
You can also send a “Please Call Me”:

Dial
*111*recipient’s number#
and send.
The person will receive a message showing your number.
Method 3: Use the Cell C App
