About phone is showing “unknown number”

[SteveT28]

Hi all,

My Samsung S20Fe is showing “Unknown number” in the About Phone section and I cannot edit it to enter my own number. Any ideas ?

same here im on o2 network think its to do with the network your using or if your pay as you go or are in a contract

Thanks for the reply, I’m on Giffgaff who “Piggyback” O2, I don’t want my number to ID as Unknown when making a call as some people won’t answer the call.

It doesn't affect call ID.

it won't show up as unknown it just states that in the settings menu your number will still show when calling someone alot of networks don't show the number the only one I know of is EE and thats because I'm with them

Thanks for all replies, apparently its a known issue, you cannot edit the number at the moment but it could change in future software updates.
