This tutorial offers a vivid cross-examination of the 3 proven ways to check your subscriptions on Telkom Mobile South Africa.
With similitude of interest, akin to MTN and Vodacom; Telkom remains one of the leading economically friendly networks in the country, far much better than Cell C.
However, I am not averse to the fact that their data packages, though cheaper than MTN prepaid data bundles have been reported to sometimes give fail and unreliable signals. However, this does not erode their unwavering commitment to sound customer care services.

How To Check Subscriptions On Telkom
One of the major and core reasons why it is expedient for you to know and check your subscriptions on Telkom is that you will be able to know which one is eating your airtime and be able to take decisive action on it.
1. Using USSD Code
*180# is the ussd code you need to dial to check your Telkom subscriptions. This option gives you ample details to get and know all the facts and details of all your active and pending subscriptions.
This option does not require you to have airtime or data balance, all that is required from you is to follow the guidelines below:
Guideline:
- Open your phone and dial the ussd code, *180#
- Locate and choose 6 ( showing Telkom Plus)
- The next option, select 9 for more details
- Chose self-service ( it is option 7)
- Select active subscriptions by choosing 1
- On choosing 1, all active subscriptions will be displayed.
In essence, the use of the ussd code is both time-effective, cost-effective, and highly efficient. For ease of use, you can just dial *180*6*9*7*1# to check your Telkom subscription ( try it, it may or may not work, if it does not work, just dial the code and choose it one by one).
Please note that this code works for your SIM swap request for Telkom.
2. Using Telkom App
I prefer using Telkom App to buy data as it is convenient, however, using the App to check if you are on a subscription is good but the use of the ussd code is far better and easy.
It is the second best means of checking your Telkom subscription, however, note that it is important and mandatory that you have a data/internet connection on your phone and you also need a smartphone. This is a deviation from the use of ussd that does not require these two factors.
In addition, the App needs to be downloaded, and installed on your phone and you need to register it before engaging with its use.
If the use of the App is your preference, kindly follow the guidelines below:
- Go to Google Play Store and download the App
- After the download, install it, then register using the name of your mobile phone and create a password for yourself
- Once done, log into the App, go to products, and navigate to the subscriptions icon/link
- On the subscription portal, after clicking on it, all your active and pending subscriptions will be shown vividly to you.
