You can only find out the owner of the number if you have a SIM card with this phone in your hands.
Declassifying the personal data of a stranger is an illegal act; only the police and the FSB have access to the relevant databases from outside. And even for them it is not always easy to obtain such information, without serious charges and a warrant. It’s another matter if you’ve been using a SIM card for a long time, but don’t remember who issued it. How to find out who the Tele2 phone number is registered to in this case? This can be done in a couple of minutes. We describe in detail how to restore a Tele2 SIM card in the instructions at the link.
How to identify the owner
In order to find a person’s number on Tele2, you will need access to a mobile phone. You can call another person and then determine the owner through the web account on the provider’s website or by contacting the Tele2 office.
Personal Area
To figure out how to find out who has a Tele2 SIM card, you can use the virtual portal of the mobile operator. The SIM card must be inserted into the smartphone and active. Step-by-step instructions and nuances of the operation:
- Go on the website.
- Click on the “Login to your account” button.
- Log in or recover your password.
- Log in to your profile, select the “My Tele2” section.
- Go to the “Personal Data” section, where the real owner will be located.
If the subscriber has filled out all profile tabs, then the following will be stored there: address, place of work and other contact information.
"My Tele2"
Algorithm of actions:
- Go to the Play Market, download and install the application.
- Once in the main section, find the icon in the form of the letter “M” at the top of the screen.
- Find the position “Edit personal data”. In the window that opens, the user will see the last name and first name of the owner of the SIM card.
In additional tabs you can find your email address and place of residence. This information will be useful if you plan to reissue your SIM card.
The SIM card must be working. If it is damaged, then it will not be possible to determine the information.
Office visit
If you come to any Tele2 branch with a found SIM card, employees will be able to look at the card owner’s data. They do not have the right to provide this information to a third party if he does not have a notarized power of attorney. A person can write a statement that he wants to become the new owner of the room, but such issues are resolved on an individual basis.
Obtaining a list of numbers registered to a subscriber
In your Personal Account you can get information about all the rooms issued to a person. This is relevant if, over the entire period of using the company’s services, he has issued several SIM cards for himself and loved ones and now wants to find out which of them are still active. Necessary:
- Log in to your Personal Account.
- Click “My Tele2” and select “Settings” from the drop-down menu.
- Click “Current agreements”.
In the window that opens, information about all current contracts concluded by the subscriber with Tele2 is available. If necessary, the data can be printed by clicking on the “Print” button.
You can get a list of your numbers in Tele2 communication stores. You need to go to the staff with your passport, write a corresponding application on the form provided and indicate which method of obtaining numbers is more convenient - in the salon or by email.
Registration of someone else's SIM card
When you have managed to find out the owner by Tele2 phone number, you can begin re-registration. This procedure is possible with the consent of the previous owner. To apply for a SIM card for yourself, you will need:
- Find the person who owns the SIM card according to documents. His presence will be required at the operator's office.
- Fill out the application form. One person indicates that he wants to become a new user of a specific number, and the other indicates information about the transfer of a SIM card for permanent use.
- Sign the contract.
Advice and assistance for Tele2 subscribers is provided at the service center by calling 611.
To find the owner or check someone else’s number, registering in the web account of the operator’s official resource or installing the provider’s application will help. Having a working SIM card in hand, you will need to log in to the services and restore your username and password.
Paid online services and databases
If the user does not have a SIM card, but needs to find out its owner, you can resort to paid online services. These are special offices that store the maximum possible information about a subscriber with a specific phone number.
It is worth giving a small list of all the popular providers of this type of service:
Service name | Description of services |
BasExp.ru | A service with a database that includes about 825,000 mobile numbers. The user can get access to them for the amount of 2000 rubles. |
PHONENUMBER | A site that allows you to “punch” specific telephone numbers, providing information about the client down to passport details and residential address. |
Snooper.com | Unlike other services, it is free. Provides information about a specific user. |
You should be as careful as possible in choosing a company that provides a database of telecommunications company users. Since there are frequent cases of fraud in this area of information services.
The main problem of online services is the rare updating of information. The fact is that a number that has already been entered into the database will not be adjusted over time. Therefore, the data in such servers is unreliable and not up to date.
Why doesn't Tele2 disclose information about the owner of the number?
In accordance with Law No. 152-FZ, cellular operators are responsible for processing users’ personal data and cannot disclose such information to third parties. This means you shouldn’t rely on help from Tele2’s technical support service. This strict approach is explained by the high level of fraud using other people's mobile phone numbers. Employees of the consultation center can only recommend what to do in a given situation.
There are several methods that allow you to independently determine the person to whom the SIM card is issued, without resorting to drastic measures. They will be discussed further.

Why do people want to know who the SIM is registered to?
Many subscribers use mobile phones with two SIM cards to make using communications more convenient. But if too many cards accumulate, it is not always possible to identify their official owner. But it is useful to do this for the following reasons:
- Possible use for fraudulent purposes. Fraudsters today can transfer the plastic to themselves for use in solving selfish problems. To prevent this, the owner must be identified.
- Reconnection when linked to a mobile phone (receiving a SIM card as a gift). It is possible to re-register a Sim in your name if you identify the former owner.
- Reuse after blocking. The SIM card is closed by the operator after 3 months if the former owner does not use it. Next, the number is transferred to another person who purchases a starter package. It is possible to find out about the blocking only after gaining access to the account information.
The old card may also be necessary when linking it with bank cards, electronic wallets and virtual accounts. As a rule, without access to it, performing transactions is difficult.
