Final word
Megafon's "Autopayment" is a fairly popular service that allows customers not to worry about sudden disconnection of services due to a negative balance.
With this service you can do without regular checks of your personal account for the availability of funds on it - the system itself controls this moment. In addition, the service is absolutely free.
But not all subscribers prefer to use it and they have relevant questions about disconnecting the service from their number. It is these people who we suggest using the advice from this article and removing autopayment from the options available on their phone.
Through commands
Let's look at how to disable Autopayment on Megafon via USSD commands from your mobile operator. This method is very suitable when it comes to debiting money from your phone to a particular subscriber.
To do this, you need to make a request - *773*0#. It is this combination that will disable all “Autopayments” that are connected to the selected number. A few seconds of processing the request - and you're done.
Please note that the service, as mentioned earlier, is absolutely free. You can use it at any time. But there is another very interesting scenario.
It is relevant for cases when it is necessary to disable only one specific number from “Autopayment”. To do this, the USSD request needs to be slightly modified. Now, to refuse “Autopayment” you must dial the combination: *773*0*subscriber number#. You send this request for processing and wait for the result.
What is the essence of auto payment?
This option is very suitable for busy business people who do not want to waste their time regularly checking and replenishing their personal account.
Scheme of operation of the “Autopayment” service.
Before disabling it, you should understand what advantages and benefits it brings:
- The service has no monthly fee for use.
- Automatic replenishment is carried out only to the main number , while additional numbers are “fed” only if there is a sufficient amount on the balance.
- For automatic payment in the Megafon system, the amount is determined by the subscriber independently , which has a very positive effect on the popularity of the functionality among users, since similar offers from other operators are limited to a fixed amount.
- Each auto payment is made under the strict control of the operator and the subscriber receives a detailed report on all actions of the system to replenish the balance and debit funds from a bank card.
Advantages of connecting to the service.
Via messages
Now let's figure out how to turn it off on Megafon via messages. To accomplish the task assigned to us, everyone can use the SMS command. This, by the way, judging by the reviews, is one of the most common scenarios for the development of events.
What do you need to do to activate the service? In the text of the message, type “0”, then send the letter to number 7730. After the transaction is processed, all previously enabled automatic payments will be disabled.
If you only need to cancel the service on one specific number, the message will have to be slightly modified. After “0”, separated by a space, write the number of the subscriber to whom you should no longer transfer funds. Ready? Next you will need to send an SMS to 7730. Just a few minutes of waiting - and everything is in order! No more funds will be transferred to the number you specified from Megafon.
Connecting auto replenishment
If the bank card was previously linked to a phone number, then the connection procedure can be completed much faster.
If not, then first you will have to link the card. You can activate the Autopayment service in the following ways.
- Using an SMS message to the short number 5117, which should contain – AUTO*(amount)*(threshold). For example, AUTO*100*50 - when the amount left on the account is 50 rubles or less, it will be replenished by 100 rubles.
- Call 0500910, where you will then need to follow the voice instructions.
- Dial the command *117*03*(amount)*(threshold)*phone number # call.
- In your personal account. You can also check the terms of the tariff, the availability of other connected options, and subscriptions in your personal account.
If you are unable to disable or activate the service on your own, the subscriber must contact Megafon customer support or the nearest operator’s mobile phone store.
ATM
How to disable Autopayment on Megafon from Sberbank? This question also interests many. This service should not be confused with auto payment, which was discussed earlier. The previous function debited funds from your number and transferred them automatically to another subscriber. In the case of Sberbank, money is withdrawn from the card and transferred to you, but to the Megafon SIM card. Sometimes there is a need to refuse such a service.
First, find an ATM and insert your bank card into it. The one with a phone number attached to it. Enter your pin code and then look at the menu that appears. Now you need to find it there.
Click on the appropriate button, then select your operator. In our case, this is Megafon. Afterwards you will see a menu in which the shutdown function is selected and the operation is confirmed. There is nothing difficult about it. Once you confirm the cancellation of the service, it will no longer bother you. That's all. Now it’s clear how to disable “Autopayment” from a Sberbank (Megafon) card using an ATM.
Please note: you can also refuse automatic replenishment of your balance using the Sberbank terminal. In this case, you need to act in the same way. The only difference is that you do not need to insert a bank card into a special hole in the terminal. But you will have to indicate the number to which your plastic card is attached.
Description of service
Automatic payment allows subscribers not to forget about paying the monthly subscription fee and always have time to top up the balance of their mobile device. Besides this, it has other advantages.
- Auto-replenishment allows the mobile network user to always stay connected.
- Convenient for those who use several SIM cards.
- Security of payments and personal data of bank clients.
- Easy to set up.
- Free connection.
- When automatically debiting money, no commission is charged.
To ensure the security of transfers received from a client’s card, Megafon has set limits on automatic account replenishment.
When connecting and setting up Autopayment, the cellular user himself sets the minimum balance threshold and the replenishment amount. For example, when an amount of 50 rubles or less remains on a client’s account, his account is automatically replenished by 100 rubles by debiting funds from a bank card.
It is also possible to set up replenishment on a specific date each month. This is very convenient if the subscriber uses a tariff plan, according to the terms of which the subscription fee is charged monthly on certain dates.
Automatic replenishment on a certain date can be configured only for the main SIM card; other numbers are topped up only when the minimum set amount of money is reached on the mobile account.
How the service works:
- When the minimum balance threshold of a network user is reached, the mobile operator sends a command to the bank;
- Based on the received signal, the bank writes off funds from the client’s bank card;
- The money is at the disposal of the user of the mobile operator Megafon.
Thus, the entire process occurs automatically without the participation of the cellular user himself. All that is required from him is to link the card and make the initial settings for the auto-replenishment to work.
