“Mobile portal” Megafon withdraws money: how to disable it forever?

Nowadays it is impossible to imagine a person without a mobile phone. Now there are many different services for users of smartphones and simple mobile phones. But there are also various services from telecom operators. For example, you have . This service is available to subscribers of the MegaFon cellular network and combines three technologies: GRPS, WEB and SIM menu.

How to disable

It is impossible to remove Megafon Pro on a smartphone - there is simply no such functionality. It is also impossible to remove this service completely. But you can monitor the appearance of paid subscriptions on your number and disable them in a timely manner.

The table below shows all available methods.

*For other MegaFonPRO services, the principle of action to remove the Megafon Pro service from the phone will be the same. There may be slight differences in the names of the buttons, but overall nothing complicated.

Pop-up messages

These are the same windows with offers to subscribe to a particular service that periodically appear on the phone screen. Most of them come from the Kaleidoscope service.

To disable Megafon Pro pop-ups you need to:

• Launch the application.
• Select “Kaleidoscope” and then “Settings”.
• Click on “Broadcasting”.
• Click on “Disable” to turn off messages.

Important! If you are in roaming, navigating through the MegaFonPRO service menu, for example, to turn off notifications from Megafon Pro on Android, will be paid. Each transition from one point to another is paid as an outgoing message according to your tariff.

To be on the safe side

You've probably encountered “magic”: you didn’t connect anything yourself, but paid subscriptions somehow appear and money is withdrawn for them. This is not a feature of this particular operator - it happens with all communication service providers. To minimize the likelihood of such surprises to Megafon, once every 3 months you need to send 2 SMS to number 5151 with the text:

1. USTZAPRET1
2. USTZAPRETSP

These are bans on connecting paid subscriptions from the two most “dangerous” services. However, there is no way to disable notifications this way.
