How to find out your phone number for the most popular telecom operators

Each subscriber who purchases a new SIM card from the Motiv telecom operator is primarily interested in how to find out his phone number. Sometimes a friend is at hand who is ready to take a call and dictate it.

But there are situations when you need to check it yourself. Some time ago, you would have to go to the store where the SIM card was purchased and ask the seller.

But with the development of technology and the Internet, everyone has such an opportunity. In this article we will tell you how to find out your number on Motive. You can use several methods.

Please note that some of the methods involve charging a commission. In order not to make a mistake with the choice, we will consider each of them in more detail.

SMS

The easiest way to find out Motive's phone number is to send an SMS to the operator. The algorithm is like this:

1. Log in to the SMS dialing section on your smartphone.
2. Don't enter anything.
3. Send SMS without text to 1024.

After some time, the operator sends a message with information on the SIM card. Sending one SMS costs 1 ruble.

Methods for Russian cellular operators

The most obvious and effective way to find out your mobile phone is to call a friend, relative or anyone nearby. Your number will appear on the screen of his device and the problem will be solved.

This method will work for both Russian and foreign operators. But there are situations in which it is not possible to use the help of others. That’s when you have to rely only on your own strength.

USSD requests, SMS, contact centers... Such diversity does not allow you to immediately get your bearings “on the ground” and choose a truly necessary and useful option.

USSD command

When considering options for how to find out your number on Motive, it is worth highlighting the USSD request. The advantage of the method is that the command is issued instantly, and the option itself is activated in a short time. To find out the information you need, follow these steps:

1. Enter the Phone section.
2. On the keyboard, dial the combination *104*28#.

3. Activate the request by clicking the Call button.
4. Wait for information from the company.

As in the case of SMS, the operator charges 1 ruble for each request sent. If there is no money in your account, you will not be able to find out your phone number on Motive this way.

Security and privacy rules

To ensure a secure connection, the following requirements are met:

If there is no activity on the site for 15 minutes, the system automatically interrupts access to the account. Opening your personal account is possible in a browser that supports the SSL protocol and allows you to store cookies on your computer.

To provide additional protection, the user can enable the personal account protection service. This will ensure that the client is informed via SMS about access to the account and hacking attempts. The connection cost is 12 rubles, there is no subscription fee.

Smartphone settings

One simple solution is to find out the data through the smartphone settings. In many modern phones you can find your number in Contacts.

• Open the phone book;
• Find "My Number".

If in your case there is no such contact, try the following:

1. Enter the Settings section, scroll down and go to the About phone category.
2. Go to the General Information (Status) section.
3. Click on the Network button (SIM status).

In the My phone number section it is easy to find out the information you are interested in. There is a situation when this information is not available, and instead of numbers there is the word “Unknown”. This situation means that when replacing the card in the salon, the center employee copied the encryption keys, but did not enter the necessary information in the My number section.

There is another way to find out the number on Motive through the smartphone settings. Take the following steps:

1. Enter the Settings section.
2. Go to the Mobile network section.
3. Enter the SIM card management section.

Operator information is available here. If this information is not available, it can be entered manually (after clarification).

Checking your phone using SMS

Sending an SMS message will also help identify your number in Motiv. To do this, it will be enough to send an empty SMS to the number 1024

.
And in a couple of seconds you will receive a response SMS containing your contact. Send an empty message to number 1024

How to avoid becoming a victim of scammers

On the Internet, upon request, you can find many offers that promise to determine a person’s location for little money or for free. You shouldn't trust them.

In order to find out where the subscriber is located, it is necessary to activate a special service of the mobile network operator, install a special program, or arouse the interest of the internal affairs authorities in him. In any other case, it will not be possible to obtain accurate information. And those people who offer to do this for money are simple scammers.

Tips for identifying scammers:

1. There is no need to spend money on purchasing a mobile network operator database. They strictly monitor information leakage.
2. There is no need to enter your data on third-party sites that offer to find a person by phone number. This fraudulent scheme will take your money.
3. It is important to use a secure connection that can protect you from viruses.
4. You should not download unverified files from the network, they may contain viruses. Especially on sites offering human search services.
5. We must not forget that determining the place where a person is located without his consent is an illegal activity that is punishable by a serious fine. True, for this a person will have to contact law enforcement agencies.

Just five simple rules can preserve the integrity of funds in your wallet and bank card, as well as protect your computer and smartphone from virus files.

Finding a person by his mobile phone number is easy, but to do this you will need to resort to one of the legal methods listed above. Such information is relevant for parents or friends who want to always stay in touch. Geolocation can also be useful when searching for missing people or criminals. But it is better not to satisfy idle interest in this way, since you may be liable in the form of a fine.

An easy way to check your phone number on Motive is to contact technical support by dialing 611 or 8-800-24-000-00. Take the following steps:

1. Dial the operator's phone number.
2. Tell him you want to know the phone number.
3. Provide the necessary information upon request of the call center employee (for example, passport details, full name, code word).

Upon request, the operator provides information to the client of the Motiv company. If desired, with the help of the operator, you can resolve other issues - get information about expenses, connect a new tariff or additional service. The advantage of this method is that there is no payment.

For mobile operators in Ukraine

Among the Ukrainian mobile operators it is worth highlighting: Kyivstar, Vodafone and Lifecell.

Before continuing, it is worth noting that their systems are similar to those listed in the sections on Russia and Belarus.

Kyivstar

The Kyivstar network works through a number of commands:

• On request *161# and *105*466# .
• By calling technical support at 466.
• Through the My Kyivstar service, but it requires access to an Internet connection.

Vodafone

Typically, Vodafone subscribers use the *161# . But you can also count on a specialist who, by calling 111, will suggest a solution to your problem.

Lifecell

The mobile network from Lifecell is not original and also allows you to find out the number and tariff through the combination *161# and by calling 5433 .

Additional methods

Above we looked at the main methods of where and how to view your number on Motive. But a number of alternative paths stand out:

1. Check with someone you know who has you listed in their phone book.
2. Look at the agreement with the operator, if one has been concluded.
3. Look at the packaging of the SIM card, where the phone number, PIN, PUK and other data are indicated.

These are the main methods that allow clients of the Motiv company to find out the data of interest. But it’s worth considering that SMS and USSD commands are paid services. In other cases there is no need to pay.

Geolocation capabilities

This is determining the location of a person based on the signal from his mobile phone. The search is carried out using a satellite network, LBS (Location Based Service), as well as using signals from operator base stations.

On a note!

The satellite network allows you to determine the location of a person by determining the time it takes for the signal from the phone to reach the satellite. With the help of telephone stations, information is compiled based on the signal strength at nearby antennas.

Some technology limitations for operator stations that can play a decisive role in a difficult life situation:

1. It will not be possible to accurately determine the location of the person. Geolocation can be off by 50 meters or more in large cities. In rural areas everything is much worse. If there is one tower per ten kilometers, then the search range will be exactly that. Therefore, finding a grandmother lost in the forest is a difficult task.
2. A switched off phone cannot be tracked. If a child's battery runs out or he intentionally turns off the power, it will be quite difficult to find him.
3. You can track a person's location only with personal consent. Everything else is punishable by law.
4. A search request can be sent no more often than every 5 minutes.
