Subscriber on the network: how to disable the “contact” service


Availability via mobile phone does not always depend on the subscriber. In the subway, outside the city, or simply in a building with reinforced concrete walls, the signal may disappear. And the person who calls you will hear the indifferent: “The subscriber is temporarily unavailable or is outside the network coverage area.” Most numbers have conditional forwarding to voicemail or answering machine. Some cellular operators provide something similar. So, Beeline, Tele2 and MTS please their customers or “The subscriber is back on the network.”

- what it is?

If you receive a call while you are out of network coverage, you may not even know about it. And when you activate this service, all people who dialed your number at that moment will receive an SMS stating that you are again available for a call. In this case, the sender will be your number, so the subscriber can easily contact you. You will also receive a message indicating that you received a call.

The service is extremely useful if you often travel outside the city, use the metro, work or live in a shielded building. It allows people to connect with each other without useless calls. After a single call, when the person is again available for communication, the network notifies the caller.

The room does not transmit the signal

The problem can also arise in a large city, where it would seem that towers are located on every corner. It's all because of the buildings that shield the signal. Reception deteriorates significantly when the subscriber goes down into the basement. Some houses built over 50 years ago also have thick walls, which can cause poor or no reception even on the upper floors.

Another type of building that is good at preventing the operation of cellular networks is metal boxes and hangars. Some hypermarkets, garage complexes and similar premises are built using this principle. As a result, internal reception may either be completely lost or the quality may be significantly reduced. One can only come to terms with this, because the only solution to the problem is to leave this building.

Cost of service, methods of disconnection, connection

available for subscribers with a postpaid payment system. It is connected absolutely free of charge, there is no subscription fee.

To activate the Subscriber on the network or “Have a contact” service, you can contact the operator, use the services of your personal account, or dial the ussd command *110*4021#. You can also call: 0674 094 021.

To disable the service, you can also use your personal account, call the operator or call the number: 0674 094 020. The USSD command for disabling is also available: *110*4020#.

If you are the caller, then to disable SMS notifications that the subscriber has appeared online, dial *110*4030# or call 0674 09 4030. To enable notifications, you need to dial *110*4031# or call the number 0674 09 4031.

If there is an “Answering machine”

If you already have an “Answering Machine” activated on your number, then you can use the additional “Have Contact” option completely free of charge. Wherein:

  • If any forwarding is set on the Answering Machine, in addition to absolute, then when you are outside the access area, only “Contact” will function.
  • If absolute forwarding is installed, “There is a contact” will not function, so there is no point in installing it.

If you value communication with loved ones or you need cellular communications for work, this will help make your life as easy as possible.

Description of service

The first thing I want to say is that the function is included in all Tele2 tariff plans. Even those operator clients who use archived service packages can use the option. It will be useful if:

  • The battery is low or the phone is turned off on purpose;
  • The Tele2 SIM card is located in the metro or outside the city;
  • the phone has entered an area where there is no network coverage;
  • Incorrect installation of the SIM card in the slot.

Special modes (for example, “in flight”) also make it difficult to reach a loved one. But as soon as the disabled gadget registers on the network again (that is, the smartphone is turned on, the mode is changed to standard), the connection is restored. The subscriber who previously called him will be immediately informed about the appearance of a contact on the network. The phone number from which the call was made will receive an SMS text message “The subscriber is in touch again. Call me back."

SIM card recognition is carried out automatically using switching equipment, so the message arrives within 5-10 seconds. It is provided to Tele2 subscribers free of charge (included in the list of free functions). There is no additional charge for connecting the option.

Conditions for providing the “I’m in touch” option:

  • An SMS message is sent on behalf of an operator's client who was out of reach;
  • The message is generated immediately upon leaving the network and is stored for 24 hours.
  • if the Tele2 SIM card is not visible on the network within 24 hours, the message is deleted;
  • call forwarding will invalidate the function;

Important! Refusing redirection will not restore the option. You will need to independently resume the option using the command **62*+79774343600#.

  • The function is valid in your home region and when traveling within the Russian Federation.

The zero cost of the service is maintained even when you reconnect and restore the option.

at MTS

MTS subscribers have a similar service called “I'm in touch”. It works on the same principle: if, when you try to reach a subscriber, he is not online, but later appears, you will receive a notification “The subscriber is online again.”

Price

The service is provided free of charge and is available to absolutely all subscribers. You cannot disable it for other users, even if there was a failure when trying to call or the mobile network was overloaded - you will receive an SMS notification.

What if you don't want other users to see when your phone comes back online? For this purpose, the option “Banning the I am online service” is provided. It can be connected for your number in your personal account or the My MTS application.

What is the price?

The activation of this service itself is free. Tariff plans Super MTS, Red Energy and Guest include the service in the main package and on these plans it will not cost you anything. Users of other tariffs will pay 30 kopecks daily for the service. You can disable it for free. But disabling the service will only result in the fact that information messages within the service will no longer be sent to your mobile number.

In order for the network to stop reporting your appearance to other subscribers, you will have to enable a ban. This is a paid option - it costs 25 rubles per month and is charged daily in equal installments. Its connection and disconnection itself is free.

Disabling the service in Tele2

Tele2 has provided its subscribers with the opportunity to deactivate it themselves. This is done using the USSD command:

  1. Open the dialer on your phone, dial *128*0# and press the Call button.
  2. You can disable the service through the settings in the My Tele2 application.
  3. The third way is to call the support operator at 611 and ask to disable the service.

Write in the comments whether everything worked out and ask questions if something remains unclear or causes difficulties.

MTS crashes today

One of the reasons for incorrect operation of mobile communications is a malfunction of the operator’s equipment. Sometimes some towers fail, or an entire region may fail at once. This is due to unforeseen accidents that can be caused by massive equipment failure, as well as adverse weather conditions and other problems. In rare cases, failures occur due to the fault of attackers who damage base stations for hooligan reasons or for profit. In the event of an emergency, reception may be maintained, but calls will not be made. To figure out whose side the problem is, just call the operator and find out whether the network is working normally in the required region.

Causes

The subscriber may not immediately understand that his phone numbers are affected by any restrictions, especially when the service is automatically activated. For example, after crossing the country's border it turns out that incoming calls are not accepted. But even if you independently choose restrictive measures, you need to know about ways to solve the problem.

Why does it happen:

  1. Accidental connection by subscriber.
  2. Automatically connects with other conditions.
  3. Activated when there is insufficient funds in the account for incoming calls abroad.

Some operators charge a subscription fee for this type of communication regulation, so it is important to know how to disable the ban without buying a new SIM card

Could it be that the phone is turned on, there is a signal, but instead of a call the subscriber is unreachable?

maybe... just a glitch on the line

Think. what is it.. if.. the subscriber.. the phone is not in order.... for example.. once my phone froze and the whole day it was supposedly unavailable... but in fact it froze... and.. most importantly.. it didn’t seem to show anything.. they just.. told me.. that I was not available. .and in front of me they called my number... They said that the subscription was not available... but I had coverage!!

Or maybe the subscriber has made it so that he is inaccessible to you.

Maybe there have already been such cases

I had this kind of bullshit all evening with a friend (Megaphone). We sat next to each other on the street, his phone was on, he had money, I called from MTS, they told me that the subscriber was unavailable, but an hour passed...

In fact, the most incredible things can happen to a phone... Especially if the mobile phone often fell. . =)

Did you know that when the phone is TURNED OFF, you can listen to a person at a distance of 1 km. With the battery removed, you can listen and find a person within a radius of 100 meters. and only with the SIM card removed and the phone disassembled (there is another small battery inside the phone that is responsible for the clock and date, and at the same time the possibility of wiretapping) is complete safety from unauthorized influence guaranteed

There are several options. 1 A glitch with the operator (it’s easy to find out at any service center) 2 Sometimes it helps to turn the phone on and off (the SIM card will be re-registered on the network and the problem will be fixed) 3 Try putting the SIM in another phone (if it works, the problem is in the phone) if it doesn’t help, then contact the operator. problem with SIM card 4 Check in your phone settings (incoming calls may have been blocked by accident)

Maybe if the subscriber you are calling is in ICQ!!!

Of course it can be) Either this means that you are “out of reach” or there is no money

Yes, there is a network failure. This happens to me often. It's not scary!

Maybe. This happened to me. you need to call the operator, he reboots something and asks you to turn off the cell phone for 10 minutes, then turn it on again. and everything works.

1 this is a network failure 2 now there is a new one if the number is in it then this is the message he will hear

anything can happen

Maybe the subscriber doesn’t have money or the battery is dead.

Maybe - I met it with different Samsung models

Yes, this happens. I still didn’t understand why, but the same case happened more than once. And a couple of times it happened that “the number does not exist,” although the money was in the account, and the phone was turned on, and the battery was not discharged...

Yes maybe. Contact your operator. This is their glitch. I only had this for one day, though.

The operator may be buggy

we can have everything...
