Cash out options
Depending on which operator you use, there may be several options for how you can withdraw money from your mobile phone number. Let us immediately note that it will not be possible to receive money from your cell phone balance without additional payments, since such transactions are provided through operator partners, and a commission fee is charged for them. With minimal interest, you can withdraw money only from a MegaFon bank card, the account of which is the balance of your cell phone. If you do not have such a card, or you use the services of another operator, then you can receive funds without interest only by contacting the operator with an application to close the number.
There are several options for how you can withdraw money from your SIM card phone account. The simplest one is to transfer to your bank card and receive money through an ATM. You can also send a transfer through payment services, or use cash through electronic wallets. Also, some operators previously had the opportunity to receive money directly through an ATM without using a plastic card, but now such services are not available. Note that it is also possible to withdraw money from a corporate SIM card of MegaFon, MTS, or another operator, but since a single corporate balance is used, it is impossible to do this without the permission of the owner of the agreement, and any attempts to bypass it may be regarded as fraud.
What does write-off mean?
“Rostelecom Moscow RUS” is an automatic payment that is activated by paid services of the Rostelecom company. Money is written off for basic service packages specified in the contract, or for a subscription to one of the company’s additional services.
The provider Rostelecom is a large provider of digital services. The most popular package services today are “Combo 3 in 1”, “Combo 4 in 1”, which allow you to combine Internet services, interactive television, mobile communications and access to the Wink online cinema. In each of these categories there are additional services and subscriptions that are offered and even imposed on customers in various forms.
Can all subscribers transfer money with Rostelecom?
Internal money transfers are available to all new subscribers after concluding an agreement and installing a SIM card. You can send no more than 1000 rubles per transaction. Withdrawal from the balance to third-party resources - numbers of other operators, or cards, becomes available only 2 months after connecting to the operator. But the amount of transfers is increased - a one-time transaction is limited to 4,000 rubles.
If you want to transfer money from Rostelecom to a card, you should know that the operator provides its own commission for the service. In addition, withdrawal from balance to Tele2 number will be one of the most expensive. In addition to the RTC commission, a percentage of the Tele2 side is taken, which is another 5% of the total payment.
What services can be connected by Rostelecom
Here are some of the company's most popular services, which come with additional paid options.
- Plastic bag "Internet" offers the following additional services: parental controls, licensed Kaspersky and ESET antiviruses, cloud storage, subscription to Office 365, purchase of a router/modem. For example, several years ago the network was filled with angry reviews from customers who discovered a promotional connection for a paid antivirus subscription.
Antivirus subscription connected automatically - Video service Wink also offers to connect additional subscriptions and services (“LITE”, “Transformer”, “Premium”, “KinoVIP”, “MORE.TV”, etc.). From the beginning of the year, it was possible to purchase 2 months of free access to Wink LITE, but the binding of a bank card was a prerequisite for the promotion. After the free period expired, the subscription was renewed automatically and customers received a write-off in the amount of 399 rubles. There are also reviews online about randomly purchasing movies from a linked card. Moreover, some users claim that purchases were protected by service PIN codes.
Random purchase of films in WINK - It is worth mentioning separately the availability digital services, which are actively promoted by the company: liters, kids, lyceum, cloud gaming, game market, etc. Customers left a lot of negative reviews about the liters subscription. The service was activated automatically and often was not displayed in your personal account. I had to disable it through the support service.
liters subscription activated automatically - In addition to the above services, Rostelecom often integrates advertising services of its partners. Here is a clear example: a subscriber made a payment according to the tariff, but discovered that the slider was turned on opposite the partner service for real estate insurance.
When paying for Rostelecom services, they impose a subscription to VSK Insurance House
For renewal or purchase of such services, Rostelecom writes off money with the designation “Rostelecom Moscow RUS”. This situation should not be surprising, since most large operators in the Russian Federation, in one form or another, try to impose paid services on customers. The connection principle is the same in all cases: registration of a service with a trial period, after which the paid main tariff is activated.

Transfer money from MTS to MTS using SMS command

You would like to transfer an amount of 250 rubles to another subscriber. You send the user an SMS message with the following text #translation 250. The message contains only one space between the word “transfer” and the amount. The message is written without quotes and sent to the selected MTS subscriber.
How to return or pay for a Rostelecom router
Rostelecom not only sells its own routers for the Internet, but also allows you to rent them or even install them. The conditions for each service are different, have different prices, and so on. If the device is not yours, then obviously it must be returned when you end the contract (not if you move).
In the case of installments, it is best to pay the remaining balance so that you can keep the router or modem. After all, if you don’t do this, the company will take the device, and the money paid will not be returned. If it was just a rental, then you need to return the device in any case.
The return procedure is determined with the company operator individually upon termination of the contract.
