Last updated on May 23rd, at 10:44 am

This may sound silly, but it happens, you forgot your SIM card number of your Airtel 3G or 4G WiFi Dongle.  You knew it, and one fine morning when you want to recharge your account, you can’t remember the SIM card number.

How on earth could I forget that number? you ask yourself, scratching your head to remember. Don’t worry you are not alone in this situation, we all tend to forget things when we need it most.

You can not recharge your data whether 3G or 4G unless you know the SIM card number. In the latest version of Airtel connection manager, it used to show the Number as. my no. XXXXXXXXX. But most of the time it doesn’t. see image
