FLOW Jamaica's USSD Codes and Prepaid Talk EZ and XL Value Plans

First, it’s good to know FLOW Jamaica Prepaid Calling Plans:

  • Prepaid
  • Postpaid
  • Flow Triple Play
  • Roaming

With that quick introduction, I’ll start off with the USSD (Unstructured Supplementary Service Data) Codes:

  • To access main menu – Dial *129#
  • To check credit balance – Dial *120#
  • To add credit (your own number) – Dial *121#{Card/Voucher Number}#
  • To transfer credit to another number (ME2U) – Dial *128*{Recipient’s Phone number}*{amount}#
  • To make a “Please Call Me” request – Dial *126*{Recipient’s Phone number}#

You’ll find that at this point, you can stop reading this article, as these USSD codes are all that you’ll need when you have a mobile phone.

Despite this, I’ll be dealing with Prepaid Services for the remainder of this article.
