Call an ambulance from MTS Mobile: Emergency Numbers

Not all clients know how to call an ambulance using MTS. This is due to the confusion in short numbers that reigned not so long ago. For different cellular operators, and sometimes for different regions, there were different contacts through which it was possible to call an emergency vehicle. Now the situation has changed.

Tell me, which ones will you name first if we now ask you to name the ambulance number? With a high degree of probability, these will be the treasured numbers 03, which we were so diligently taught to memorize in school. But, unfortunately, cellular communications do not support two-digit contacts, so such digital combinations cannot be used. Operators were forced to add a third digit to the usual dialing, and this happened in a decentralized manner. Therefore, 3 phone numbers gradually emerged for calling an ambulance in MTS from a mobile phone: 112, 030 and 103. Where did they come from and which one is better to call, let’s figure it out together!

How to call an ambulance through MTS

According to the current law, calling emergency crews is not charged for all cellular subscribers, regardless of the operator. Thanks to this, the speed of call processing has increased, and the chance to provide timely and qualified rescue to the victim has increased.

Service name	Telephone
Ambulance	103✆
Firefighters	101✆
Police	102✆
Gas	104✆
Emergency	112✆

The MTS ambulance is called by a single number 103. After dialing, you should wait for the operator’s response and provide the necessary data: the address of the incident, clarify the details and which specialists need to be sent. The following conditions apply to all calls:

the call is absolutely free;
103 is valid throughout Russia and neighboring countries;
around the clock;
You can call an emergency vehicle if your SIM card and existing debt are blocked.

The main condition for calling an ambulance is the presence of a working device with an installed SIM card.

Once dialed, you will be taken directly to the emergency station in your area, so there is no need to dial additional numbers or switch.

Knowing how to call an ambulance from MTS, you can save more than one human life. You can also use alternative methods:

pressing the emergency button on your smartphone;
application for smartphones.

Numbers by which you can call an ambulance from a Beeline mobile

For subscribers of the mobile operator Beeline there are several numbers that can be used to call emergency medical services:

103

or outdated

003

112

The last number is not only a combination of numbers to call an ambulance, it allows you to get help from other quick response points. Today, calling rescuers does not pose any particular problems for mobile device users. Methods for calling an emergency room were unified a few years ago. Before that, there might have been difficulties due to the fact that each company had its own rules.

It is important to remember that current GSM standards do not allow 2-digit numbers to be dialed from a mobile phone. Therefore, the usual 03 is not available from a cell phone.

When you dial such a number, the machine will inform you that it was done incorrectly. To call doctors or other rescuers, you need to use 3-digit numbers.

What if there is no SIM card in your smartphone?

In a situation where there is no SIM card, or you are in a remote place from a cellular provider tower, you can use the emergency phone number. To call an ambulance from an MTS mobile phone, you need to dial the short number 112. It is available regardless of the network status and other conditions.

Short number 112 is a rescue service that operates around the clock. After connecting, report the problem that has arisen, and you will be redirected to a specific local number - 01, 02 or 03, which can really help in this situation.

To summarize, we can say that emergency services are available on MTS at telephone numbers 112, 101, 102, 103, 104 absolutely free. Even if your phone balance is in the minus or your SIM card is blocked or there is no network, then dial 112, where they will definitely answer you and help you save a human life.

Emergency telephone numbers for Megafon subscribers

130 – direct ambulance number

112 – a single emergency number, where you will be asked to select the desired service:

1 – fire service code
2 – police code
3 – ambulance code
4 – emergency gas service code

As a result, in the second case you need to call 112 and additionally press 3. Also, the call in both cases is free and you can call 112 when you have no network reception, no money and your SIM card is blocked.

Another way

How can I call an ambulance if the SIM card is blocked or lost? Phones send calls to emergency services even without SIM cards. If you suddenly fail to reach an ambulance using the first method for some reason, then in addition to the unified dispatch service, you can call the unified numbers to a specific one of these services. There is a number 103 for this. If your phone does not support a three-digit number for calling, then after the numbers you need to add the symbol “*”. The ambulance number will look like this: 103*.

Important! You can call an ambulance from your mobile phone even if the SIM card is blocked or lost. This problem has been resolved by law - a call to emergency services can still be made through available operators with which your device can connect.

Ambulance from MegaFon: when to call

Finally, the following should be noted - do not overuse calls to the emergency room. Before you take out your gadget and dial a number, you need to ask yourself what you expect: to save the life of yourself or someone else in a difficult situation, to get a health certificate needed for work or a prescription for treatment.

Remember! Ambulance service – emergency and urgent. It exists to provide first aid in dire health situations. Advice, prescriptions and certificates are issued by special services, doctors and nurses in hospitals. An ambulance is called from MegaFon when something really threatens life. If you have the opportunity and time to get to the clinic on your own, such a call can simply take the team away from someone who really urgently needs help.

You should know that assistance of this kind is provided free of charge, there is no need to provide an insurance policy, its presence or absence does not matter.

Additional emergency number

Unfortunately, it is not always easy for a person faced with an emergency to remember a single number. And sometimes, instead of asking the unified service operator to transfer the conversation to the line we need, there is simply no time. In this case, there are several additional numbers.

Not everyone knows how to call an ambulance using SIM cards from different operators, and this can become a problem. In fact, the familiar number 03 was simply replaced in mobile networks by a three-digit number, but remained just as simple. This can be a combination with the additional addition of one digit to the usual number.

In order to know how to call an ambulance from a SIM card of any operator, you should understand in more detail what numbers exist. Indeed, in a certain situation, this can save your life or the lives of those around you.

Based on the information received, the operator will direct the carriage, following the established queue rules.

Emergency phone numbers to call from mobile phones

Since childhood, we have all become accustomed to the idea that in an emergency we need to call 01, 02, 03 or 04. But most mobile devices do not support such a layout.

102. Request from law enforcement agencies.
103. Connection with ambulance service.

If the operator is unable to answer the call, ask him to transfer the connection to the doctor on duty.

You can get this information online or from a help desk. In such situations, the call is paid by the user, but when every minute counts, there is no need to think about money issues.
