Determining which company a particular subscriber belongs to, possibly by telephone. Lately, this method has lost some relevance. Changing the operator while keeping the number is now a little confusing. But so far there are few people who have decided to use this service.
In most cases, codes help to correctly identify the operator. Tele2 numbers in Russia begin with the numbers 900, 902, 904, 908, 950 – 953. However, in regions where the company is not yet widespread, the codes are given to regional or less widespread companies (for example, Skylink, Smarts, NSS, etc.)
Phone codes in the Russian network
Before you start analyzing the encodings, you should take into account that most Russian encryptions can refer to several subjects of Russia at once. This is due to the fact that the provider transfers numbers to those localities where there is greater demand for telephony from places where there are remnants of unused number values. To understand what federal Tele2 numbers are and where they start, you should determine a list of areas where the operator does not directly serve the population:
- North Caucasus Federal District;
- Crimean Federal District;
- Saha Republic;
- Khabarovsk region;
- Amursky;
- Republic of Kalmykia;
- Astrakhan region;
- Volgograd region.
The first “9” is the country code (Russia).
The most popular operator prefixes: 900, 950, 951, 952, 953, 977, 900, 901, 902, 904, 908.
A way to find out which region a particular code belongs to
You can find many directories on the Internet that will help you tell a lot just by phone number. For example, the operator and region in which this number is registered. If you try, you can even determine the first and last name of the person who bought the SIM card. Let's say you are interested in which operators use this or that code, except for Tele2 or others.
On the site you can determine the region by number or code by region. The directory displays information on landline numbers.
To determine the region or code, do the following:
- Select one of two forms and enter the appropriate request. If you need to find out the region by number, you should enter it in an empty line without the country code;
- Below will be the cities and corresponding phone number codes;
- If you need to find out the city by code, enter it in the form on the left.
For cell phones, you can use the directory at https://region-operator.ru/.
The top block displays all operator codes so that you can select any one and get complete information on it. The site contains mainly data from only the “mobile four” - MTS, Megafon, Beeline and Tele2. There is a form for entering your phone number to get detailed information about it.
You can also find out what numbers the phones in the Tele2 network in Russia begin with.
By entering the number in the form, you will determine the region and operator. The page contains interesting tips for those who want to get even more information about the number. These recommendations contain a link to a supposedly effective resource for identifying an individual through a phone number. But this service requires money after registration. Which already indicates its dubious usefulness. Moreover, there are more reliable methods that are free.
This is interesting: a virtual number for VK.
What does the encoding consist of?
The Tele2 index, that is, the three digits at the beginning of the number, is called the DEF code, which contains important information about the operator. This is a kind of identifier. To make the encoding correct, add “+7” or “8”. This symbol is responsible for intercity access or identification of an international call. “8” is used only when you are in the networks of Russian operators, but abroad you can only get through via “+7”. That is why it is recommended to immediately write down contacts through the seven. Further numbers are the personal value of the subscriber.
The Tele2 operator code was created in order to identify with 100% accuracy which company the telephone encryption belongs to.
Find out the owner through messengers
There is another fairly effective way to determine a person’s name, knowing only his phone number - this is a search using instant messengers. Today, Whats App or Viber is used by everyone. After all, they give us the opportunity to call for free using the Internet. These applications are designed in such a way that data can be exchanged between devices through cloud servers. That is why when you add a contact to the phone book with Whats App turned on, you see the person's name.
Now your task is to add an unknown number that interests you at the moment to the phone book of your smartphone. The mobile device must have one of the above messengers installed, as well as an active Internet connection. If the owner of an unknown number is registered on WhatsApp, you will see his name. If all else fails, try checking your Viber contact.
If these methods do not help, search engines remain. Try searching for the number on Google or Yandex. This method has one advantage - it searches all social networks, message boards and dating sites at once. Be careful when doing this. Often in search results, the codes of Russian operators (Tele2, Beeline, etc.) and the numbers of telephone numbers are changed.
Special numbers and commands
Tele2 numbers sometimes do not start with a code, since they have only a few numbers in combination with “asterisks” and “lattices”. Such commands are called information encodings. The main combinations used by subscribers:
Tele2 teams | Description |
*201# | Clarifying your Tele2 number |
*155*0# | Checking balances |
*111# | Help menu |
*105# | Balance account control |
*107# | Request for tariff parameters |
*153# or *189# | Checking paid subscriptions |
*931# | Removing paid options |
*202# | Manual settings for the Internet |
*43# | "Call Waiting/Hold" |
*154*1# | Mini detailing |
*122*1# | Enabling “Promised Payment” |
Unique encodings apply not only to services, but also to tariff plans. Management is carried out through combinations or the provider’s virtual account. The operator uses short numbers to notify or provide additional information to its customers. List:
- 600 — description of voicemail functionality and information on how to manage messages;
- 611 — customer support service;
- 629 — terms and conditions of the Mobile Transfer service;
- 637 — background information about the “Promised Payment” program;
- 693 — request for information about current products;
- 655 — information about current offers;
- 688 — information about tariffs “for travel”;
- 691 — information about current promotions and bonus programs;
- 692 — clarification of how to top up your account;
- 679 — automatic settings for Internet connection.
SMS messages can be sent from these numbers (messages cannot be sent from commands) and contain requested information or news information.
List of unique codes
The initial values of SIM card owner numbers differ not only by subject, but also by operator. For example, if a person is a Beeline client, he will have his own numbers, and the owner of an MTS SIM card will have different numbers. Tele2 also has its own combinations. The full table with numerical values can be studied on the website tele2.ru or a little lower in this material.
In Russia, Tele2 numbers begin with the following numbers:
- 900-904.
- 908.
- 950-953.
- 958.
- 977
- 991-996.
- 999.
If the telephone coordinates begin with this number, then with almost complete certainty we can say that he uses the services provided by Tele2. The exception is some cases, which will be discussed later.
For now, you just need to remember that if a person’s phone number, for example, has the parameters 8-903-ХХХ-ХХ-ХХ, then the SIM card was registered in the Tele2 system.
Telephone identification by region
Tele2 company codes in Russia can be classified by region using a summary table:
Encoding | Number of regions where it is used | Number of rooms, million | Region |
900 | 42 | 7 | Almost all subjects of the federation |
901 | 72 | 7 | Arkhangelsk, Vologda, Yaroslavl, Ivanovo, Kostroma, Samara, Tomsk, Irkutsk regions, Yakutia, Perm region |
902 | 36 | 8 | Most regions of the Central European part, Siberia, Magadan region, Kamchatka Territory |
904 | 27 | 9 | Center of the country and Siberia |
908 | 34 | 7 | Southern regions, Siberia, Far East |
950 | 31 | 9 | European part of Russia, Ural, Siberia |
951 | 35 | 10 | Center and Urals |
952 | 36 | 10 | Rostov, Kaliningrad, Tula, Novgorod, Tyumen regions, Khakassia, Udmurtia |
953 | 51 | 9 | Central European part of Russia, Siberia |
958 | 26 | 1 | Kirov region |
996 | 16 | 2 | Used in 81 regions |
977 | 1 | 9 | Moscow and Moscow region |
991 | 5 | 5 | Used in 83 regions |
992 | 9 | 2 | Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug, Yugra, Tyumen, Sverdlovsk, Kurgan, Chelyabinsk regions |
To quickly find out which operator the code refers to, you can contact technical support at 8-951-520-06-11 or request information on a third-party resource.
These are all new numbers that are provided in regions where the operator’s development is just gaining momentum. To understand how the Tele2 provider number begins, it is important to remember the main combinations that officially belong to this company. The most popular company symbols: 900, 950, 951, 952, 953, 977, 900, 901, 902, 904, 908.
Find out the operator by phone number
By entering a mobile number on specialized websites, any person can clarify which operator it belongs to. For example, the check is carried out on the official website of the Central Research Institute of Communications https://zniis.ru/bdpn/check. There are other resources, but their accuracy, of course, cannot be guaranteed.
The code in a mobile phone is an opportunity to navigate the variety of companies offering communication services. And although most combinations are assumed for several regions of the country at once, this allows us to guess where the call was made from. Recent changes have made verification more difficult, but using Internet resources you can determine your mobile operator in a couple of seconds.
Is it possible to connect to Tele2 while keeping the old number?
Many subscribers value their contacts. But if the tariffs are no longer satisfactory, there is no choice left and you have to give up your number and switch to another company. Tele2 allows you to solve this problem. Customers can keep their old phone , but it will now be serviced by a new operator.
The procedure is no different from the standard one. Employees accept documents, write down your previous number, and enter it into the database. In a couple of minutes you will become a Tele2 subscriber, and you will not have to call all your friends in the phone book to tell them about it.
Tele2 codes: what numbers do the numbers start with?
Mobile giant Tele2 has been operating in Russia since 2003. During this time, the company has grown so much that Tele2 codes are now so different from the original ones that it is not immediately clear that it is the subscriber of this operator who is making the call. Basically, Tele2 codes in Russia differ by region. Looking at the number of a person using communication services, you can understand in which region or republic the SIM card was purchased.
All USSD commands of the Tele2 operator
*111# — Automated help desk of the provider. Here you can find out everything you need about current Tele2 services. Getting help information about the tariff plan
*107# - this combination will display the parameters of the tariff plan: the number of included gigabytes of Internet, free minutes of talk and text messages.
*115# - Using this command you can find out everything about the “Beep” option.
Including finding out whether it is connected at all, as well as getting information about installed melodies and their price. Many of us have no idea what a USSD request is, despite the fact that we have used it several times. In this case, it all depends on the capabilities of your tablet. Firstly, if the device does not support installing a SIM card, then the only way is to log into your personal account, and for this you need to connect to the Internet. The same applies to models that cannot send USSD commands.
Why do the codes sometimes not match?
It happens that a Tele2 client calls a person, although the combination from MTS is used as the code and vice versa. In addition, a subscriber living in a certain region does not always have a code assigned to his region on his phone. Why do such situations arise?
The fact is that when connecting to the operator’s services, the subscriber can save his number. Because of this, a client who switches from Tele2 to Beeline and vice versa remains with the same beginning as before. In such situations, it is impossible to determine which company a particular phone belongs to.
When the initial combination does not match the region, the answer is hidden in the place where the person bought the SIM card. You can purchase a SIM card in any region of the Russian Federation and use it anywhere. Thus, a resident of the Arkhangelsk region gets telephone coordinates assigned to the Khabarovsk Territory. There are quite a lot of such situations. Therefore, knowing the numerical value for a specific region does not always help determine whether a subscriber belongs to a specific subject of Russia.

What number does a Tele2 subscriber’s number begin with in Russia?
Tele2 numbers begin with numbers in Russia, depending on regional affiliation. The initial code is considered to be 900. This is the first provider encryption that appeared on Russian territory. Knowing the encodings will allow the subscriber, when calling an unfamiliar number, to understand whether he will pay for this conversation or communicate within his network for free, as well as calculate the approximate location of the interlocutor.
