How to Check Matric Results With a Cell Phone
You can use your cell phone (or someone else’s) to receive your results. SABC Education and the Department of Basic Education have provided a service that allows you to get an SMS with your results. Yep, it’s pretty awesome! You can register and have your results sent to you as soon as they are released. How? You have two options:
Register via SMS
- Send your ID number and exam number to 45856
- You’ll get a confirmation SMS once you’ve successfully registered.
- SMS cost R1.50 per message
- Get your matric results immediately when they are released
Use the USSD service
- Dial *120*45856# and enter your exam number to register
- Answer a few multiple questions
- Enter your ID number
- You will get your matric results per subject
- USSD rates apply
You could also opt for the old-school method by giving the department a call on the day that the results are released. Just take note that a lot of matric students will be phoning to find out their results so you might wait for quite a while to get your results.
