Step-by-step Guide To Check Your SASSA Grant Balance without Airtime

Step 1: Find Where You Make Calls

Look for the app on your phone that looks like a little telephone.

This is where you usually go to make phone calls.

Tap on this app to open it.

Step 2: Find the Number of Buttons

Once you open the calling app, you should see a bunch of numbers on the screen, kind of like a calculator.

This is called the dial pad.

Step 3: Type in the Special Code

Carefully type this code on the number buttons: 1203210#

Double-check you’ve typed it correctly!

Now, press the green button on your phone that you usually press to make a call. (It might have a telephone picture on it).

Step 4: Reading the Magic Message

Your phone will show you a message. It’s like a little note with instructions.

Read the message slowly and carefully.

Don’t worry, it won’t be too complicated!

Step 5: Finding the Balance Option

The message will have a list of options (think of it as choices).

Look for the one that says “SASSA Balance Inquiry” or something about checking your balance.

There might be a number beside it, like “Option 1”.

Step 6: Telling Them Who You Are

The next step is to type in your South African ID number. This is the special number that’s only yours.

Make sure you type every digit slowly and carefully!

Step 7: The Big Reveal

After you type in your ID number, press send (it might be the green call button again).

Wait a few seconds…and there it is! Your SASSA SRD balance will pop up on your screen.

You did it! Now you’re a pro at checking your SASSA SRD balance without airtime!
