If you have mobile phone insurance, need to send your phone off for repair or for some other reason, you might be asked to find out your phone's IMEI number. The IMEI number is a 15 digit number that is unique to your device - each phone or tablet made has a unique IMEI number, across the entire world and this can be used to identify your device if lost or stolen.

If your phone has a removable battery, you'll often find the IMEI number listed on the white label under the battery. For other devices, you'll often find the IMEI number printed on or near your SIM card tray <- the exact location varies according to your particular device.

However, there's a much simpler way - if your phone switches on, all you need to do to find your IMEI number is:

* Open your phone dialler

* Dial *#06#

* Your phone's IMEI number will be displayed on your screen.

That's it, that's how easy it is to find your phone's IMEI number. N.B. if you no longer have your phone, you can also look on your phone's box where the IMEI number is usually listed at least once.
