Forgot Your Bvn? Here's How To Easily Check It On Glo Using Ussd Code
The Bank Verification Number (BVN) is a unique biometric identifier introduced by the Central Bank of Nigeria to enhance security in financial transactions. If you’ve forgotten your BVN, checking it using your GLO line is quick and straightforward with a USSD code. Here’s how:
Dial the Code
Open your phone’s dialer and enter the USSD code *565*0#. This universal code works on all major Nigerian networks, including GLO.
Confirm Service Charge
After dialing, you will be prompted to agree to a service fee of ₦20 (this may vary slightly). Select “1” to confirm and proceed.
Receive Your BVN
Once the transaction is successful, your 11-digit BVN will be displayed on your screen. Ensure you write it down or take a screenshot for future reference.
Requirements
- Ensure your GLO line is linked to your bank account, as the BVN retrieval process depends on this.
- Have sufficient airtime on your line to cover the service charge.
Additional Tips
Your BVN is essential for banking transactions, account management, and even government-related identity verifications.
Avoid sharing your BVN with unauthorized persons to protect your financial security.
By following these steps, you can conveniently retrieve your BVN anytime, eliminating the need to visit a bank or customer service center.
