- Activation of the package for 300 SMS is carried out via phone 067402122;

The future of SMS messages
Is 100 SMS a day a lot or a little for a modern person? In today's world, it's more likely enough. The fact is that SMS is inexorably giving way under the onslaught of the “enemy” in the form of the mobile Internet. An SMS message has a limit of 160 characters and is now only needed when the client or the recipient of the message is not connected to the Internet.
SMS communication will be checkmated in the coming years, and most experts agree with this. Is it possible to extend the life of this service? Probably yes, if you make it completely free and offer it as a simple but tasty bonus to mobile Internet traffic packages. Time will tell whether operators will take this step, taking into account their own costs to ensure the functionality of the service.
How to disable SMS package?
You can also disable the package by calling the service number or in your Beeline Personal Account, through the tab of the service itself. Let's take a closer look at the first deactivation method:
- To turn off the “100 SMS” function, call 067408160.
- You can deactivate the “300 SMS” function by calling 067402120.
- deactivating the “500 SMS” option can be done by calling 067402120.
What is the offer?
The mobile operator makes it possible to connect the option to both subscribers using a postpaid tariff system and subscribers on prepaid tariffs. But the tariff system used will entail certain features.
As can be seen from the table, the difference in the provision of SMS under different systems lies only in the number of free messages within the network.
If on prepaid you can send 100 SMS per day with daily updates, then on postpaid you can send as many as you like within 3000 messages throughout the month.
Comparison with similar options from other operators
Similar services are provided by other mobile operators operating in Russia. Let's highlight several options:
- MTS. The company offers options with the number of messages from 50 to 1000 at prices from 73 to 355 rubles. Today, only two options are available - for 100 and 300 SMS, and the rest are valid for archived tariff plans. SMS are valid within the home region and for all Russian operators.
- Megaphone. The company offers unlimited SMS to all numbers in Russia with a subscription fee of 55 rubles per month. Megafon numbers are unlimited, and other operators are limited to 100 messages per day. Coverage area: Russian Federation. When changing the tariff plan, the option is disabled automatically. Valid only for SMS and mobile numbers.
- Tele 2. The operator also offers several packages to choose from. You can additionally connect 20, 100 or 300 SMS within Russia at a price of 20 to 150 rubles.
As you can see, many operators offer additional SMS. Unlike Beeline, they are available for connection with existing tariffs. But when ordering a service, it is important to take into account the tariff plan with which connection is possible, the cost and features of using the service. In particular, you need to understand how SMS is consumed and where it can be used.
In the comments, tell us if you have ever used additional messages from Beeline, whether such an option is needed, and how useful it is for subscribers.
Unlimited SMS from MTS operator
“Unlimited SMS” is far from a new service. It can be used by users who are connected to certain individual tariffs. This includes TPs included in the MAXI line, closed today, tariffs “Exclusive”, “Red Energy” and several more. There is no limit on local intranet numbers. 30 SMS per day are provided to numbers of other operators. The daily subscription fee is ten rubles.
There is another interesting service for users of this operator, namely “Night SMS Drive”. Unlimited SMS are provided on tariff plans, except for “MAXI Super” and “Smart”. Valid from 24-00 to 8-00. Connection is carried out by dialing *111*2133# and costs 34 rubles. The daily subscription fee is five rubles.
Attention!
It is important to know that not all TPs included in the “Smart” line are compatible with the latter function. In the event that the connection is not available, the person receives an SMS notification on his phone.
The second method is through your personal account.
Go to the official page of the Beeline operator https://beeline.ru/. In the upper right corner you will see the inscription “Personal Account”, click on this link. A login tab will open.
Here you need to enter your phone number and password if you are already a registered user. Otherwise, register by clicking on the active link “Get password”. After logging in for the first time, you will be prompted to immediately change your password to your own.
Go to service management, find the “SMS package” item and check the box next to the required number of SMS. Using the “Personal Account”, each subscriber can independently control all of their paid and free subscriptions, disconnect and connect all services provided by the Beeline mobile operator.
You can also easily activate this option by simply calling 0674 72–<number of messages=”” (75,=”” 150,=”” 300,=”” 1000)=””>. To disconnect – 0674 72 00.
If you have any problems connecting to services, you can always contact the Call Center operator by calling the short service number 0611 and following the robot’s instructions to contact a “live” operator.
How to check the remaining number of messages
Subscribers under the SMS Package are provided with a large number of messages every month, and it is not always possible to keep track of them. Therefore, you have to control their balance, especially at the end of the month if you have a postpaid system. To do this, you can use the “My Beeline” application. In addition, there are two more ways to determine the remainder of an SMS package:
- On a prepaid system, you need to make a call to phone 0674-7 and follow the prompts of the automatic informant.
- On the postpaid system there is a short request * 110 * 06 # by clicking on the “call” button.
After using these methods, you will receive a notification with information about the remaining SMS packages.
What are the forecasts and prospects for the development of SMS messages?
In the modern world, the number of people who prefer sending SMS to talking is constantly growing.
Many subscribers do not want to communicate by voice, so they send short texts. Despite their limitation (only 160 characters), you can “say” quite a lot in one SMS. As practice and the results of numerous studies show, people form thoughts in writing much more clearly and concisely than orally. However, with the advent of the Internet, many people moved into the virtual space and stopped being interested in message packages. They prefer increased traffic or no restrictions at all. Therefore, most likely, this service has a future only if it is provided free of charge as a bonus to other elements of the package. True, it is not yet known whether Beeline is ready to take such a bold step, because this will force it to incur a lot of expenses.
The SMS messaging service from Beeline is in demand and popular today. It allows you to exchange short texts without any special obstacles and costs a reasonable amount.
