BSNL prepaid mobile connection currently offers long-validity plans for users, saving them from running out of benefits or getting cut off without warning. BSNL actually gives you a few easy ways to check your balance, plan details, and validity: USSD codes, WhatsApp, the Selfcare app, or just by calling customer care.
USSD codes are great when you do not have internet and just need a quick dial for setting up your device. The Selfcare app provides everything in one place on your phone. Let us get in depth on simple steps for each method so customers can know exactly what is going on with their BSNL prepaid account.

- Open your smartphone’s dialer
- Then punch in *123# from your BSNL number.
- Hit the call button.
- Wait a moment for the menu to pop up.
- Check the displayed options for your main balance and plan validity.
Want to know your data balance?

Menus might look a bit different depending on where you are and what BSNL supports in your area, but you will get the basics every time.
