About

Waiting and replacing SIM card

Until the transition, two SIM cards remain active:

  • card of the operator whose services the client used previously with the current number;
  • Beeline operator card with a temporary number.

Termination of use of the services of another operator is carried out at the moment the number is transferred to the Beeline network. This process may be accompanied by a temporary disconnection of communication.

Throughout the entire stage of the procedure, information is provided about the status of the transition to two cards.

After replacing the SIM card, the current number is assigned to the network.

User reviews

Yulia “I recently found out that you can transfer your mobile phone from one operator to another, and decided to use the service. I liked the speed of the company’s work - within ten days I became a full-fledged subscriber. I would also like to note the fast delivery of the card by courier, which is very convenient for working people.”

Ilya “I decided to switch to a new operator because of the favorable prices and tariffs, but I really wanted to keep my mobile phone. It’s nice that the transfer option is free, you just need to fill out the information, sign the contract and wait for receipt.”

Why do you need to reissue a SIM card?

You can use the operator’s basic services without the consent of the person to whom the Beeline number is registered. However, some features will not be available until you submit your application. For example, you will not be able to restore a SIM card assigned to another person if it is lost, blocked or stolen. Because of this, you will have to quickly re-register all services associated with the number. If you do not have time or for some reason cannot do this, then there is a chance of losing work and personal accounts, funds from online wallets, and access to bank cards.

Another problem is the risk of losing access to the SIM card at any time. If the number is registered to a person with whom you have lost contact or are on bad terms, he can unilaterally order a reissue of the SIM. In this case, your card will be blocked.

The procedure for changing the owner of a number frees you from restrictions and protects you from such consequences.

What does MNP mean when changing operator?

The abbreviation MNP (derives from the English words “mobile number portability” - mobile number transfer) implies the ability to change the mobile network, the conditions of its use, but keep your phone number. For this purpose, you need to submit a corresponding application, and with some operators you need to do this in person; options using the Internet or calling the support service will not help.

At the service center (after confirming your identity and writing an application) you will be issued a SIM card with temporary mobile numbers. It will become active after replenishing the balance.

The duration of the transfer of previous phone numbers to another operator may vary. For some, the phone will be transferred within the number of days stipulated by the agreement, while others will independently push the deadline to a later time. In any case, an SMS will confirm the successful transition, after which you can use the old phone with the new conditions.

The service is paid from the account balance of the new operator. How much it will cost depends on him; some operators can transfer the phone for free.

What problems might arise?

Operators talk about certain difficulties with number transfer already in the process of completing the transfer. For example, some subscribers will be forced to visit the office of the provider they were planning to leave. Such situations most often arise when passport data is incorrect.

The reasons may be:

  • A company employee incorrectly entered data into the contract details, and the client did not check or pay attention to this;
  • The subscriber's passport data has changed, but he did not notify the operator about it.

There are also problems with meeting deadlines. The procedure may take longer and go beyond the established 8 days. But the user's account must be maintained with a positive balance.

Before the old phone is finally connected to the new SIM card, the connection may be lost or the card of the previous operator may stop working altogether, as well as the new SIM after the number is transferred. Providers warn of possible interruptions in communication and incoming calls and SMS for up to 6 hours.

It’s not easy to find information that you won’t be able to top up your account remotely for the first few weeks (and possibly even months). Each replenishment must be made at the operator's office.

If the subscriber has decided on the choice of operator, then other questions can be clarified by calling the following numbers:

  • Yota – 8800-5500007;
  • MTS – 8800-2500890 or 0890;
  • Beeline – 8800-7000611 or 0611;
  • MegaFon – 8800-5500500 or 0500;
  • Tele2 – 611 or a separate number allocated for each region (available on the operator’s website).

  • cell numbers for which rights need to be transferred;
  • FULL NAME. the current holder, his passport details or the name of the organization;
  • FULL NAME. and data of the new client or name of the organization;
