This post is meant for those who had completed their JAMB registrations but need their profile codes later.
I have received lots of questions - all surrounding how to recover a lost JAMB profile code. This is because CBT centres or JAMB offices are asking for these codes in order to access candidates' portal to upload their O'level results - especially those who had earlier used awaiting results.
What is certain is that CBT centres may need it before helping you do anything in your JAMB account.
If you had registered for JAMB in the recent years and now you need to get your lost profile code back, then continue to read this post to the end.

What's a JAMB Profile Code?
In case you don't know what profile code is. This is a one-time number that will be sent to you when you begin your UTME?DE registration.
Remember when you wanted to buy your JAMB form/PIN, you would send your full names to 55019 as SMS. Then a message was delivered to your phone with a set of numbers. The number was a ten-digit code e.g. 49251**931.
That's your profile code.
Some candidates have lost their phones together with this SMS. Some had mistakenly deleted the code/SMS off their phones.
So how will you solve this problem?

If you'd lost your SIM/line, you will need to do WELCOME BACK for the SIM. This is the only way out if you must get it back using this method. Then, send the SMS after your line is ready.
Note that, this will charge you #50 for the retrieval before you can get the code back. In other words, ensure you have at least #50 on your account before sending the SMS.
