If you want to get a special mobile number for yourself, you no longer need to visit a mobile company's store; you can choose a number of your choice from the comfort of your home. Whether you have a lucky number in mind or want one that is easy to remember, Jio and Vodafone Idea offer their customers the facility to select such numbers. Prices vary depending on the number; some are available at standard rates, while premium or special numbers may cost more.

How to get a preferred Jio number?
If you want a Jio mobile number of your choice, first download the MyJio app on your phone. After opening the app, navigate to the 'Quick Links' section. Here, you will see an option for 'Matching Numbers.' Tapping on this allows you to search for numbers you like. A list of available numbers will appear, and you can select the one that appeals to you.

If you cannot find the number you want, you can check alternative options by visiting the 'VIP Number' section. Once you find a number you like, book it. The company will then complete the subsequent steps, and the SIM card can be delivered to your specified address.

How to get a special Vodafone Idea number?
If you want a preferred Vodafone Idea number, download the MyVi app on your phone. After opening the app, go to the 'VIP Number' option. Here, you will find an option to enter your desired number. After entering your preferred number, if it is available, related options will appear. Some numbers may be standard, while others—classified as special or premium—might require an additional fee.

After selecting your preferred number, fill in the necessary details, such as your PIN code and delivery address. The company will then arrange for the SIM card to be delivered to the address you provided.

How much does a VIP number cost? The cost of a preferred number depends on how exclusive that number is. If the number falls into the standard category, you may only need to pay for the SIM and the necessary initial charges. However, a highly exclusive or premium number could command a much higher price. According to available information, the SIM charge for a standard number might be around ₹50, whereas the price of certain premium numbers can go up to ₹12,000.

After obtaining the SIM, you will also need to perform an initial recharge to activate it; this is known as the initial recharge plan. Please note that number availability and pricing are subject to change over time. Therefore, before booking a number, be sure to check the price and terms displayed on the company's official app.
