How to change your phone number on Megafon yourself?

How to change the number on Megafon without changing the SIM card? This can be done quite simply and without the help of specialists.

You can become the owner of a new set even by changing one digit on the number. There are several ways to carry out this procedure that are equally accessible.

There may be several reasons for changing the 11 digits assigned by the operator:

1. there was a desire to become the owner of a beautiful set;
2. banks and other ill-wishers do not give a quiet life;
3. I don’t want to change my SIM card, but I need to change the old set of numbers.

Changing your number is available to all users of the Megafon network, except legal entities. Corporate clients have to contact their manager personally if they need to change their subscriber dialing numbers. To become the owner of a new set of XXX XXX XXXXX, you need to use a special service and do not contact a customer service salon.

Regardless of the existing reasons for changing 11 digits, the operator allows you to cancel your old phone number. And the main thing is that you don’t have to wait long for the contract to be reissued or for your decision to be approved by employees.

Replacement is carried out in several ways:

• in your personal account;
• via Service Guide;
• visit to a service salon;
• call to customer service.

How to check your TP on Megafon?

Often, after changing their tariff plan, subscribers have a question about how to check their tariff. The following verification methods are currently available:

• USSD request;
• call to the operator;
• Personal Area;
• special application for iOS, Android;
• contacting the office.

Any of the verification options presented above are completely free and differ only in the algorithm of actions.

USSD request

There are several options for system queries with which you can find out the current TP on your phone:

Send the USSD command *105#, press the “Call” key. Immediately after this, a menu will appear on the screen of your mobile device, from which you need to select the “Tariffs” section, then select the “All about TP” column. Within a few seconds, your mobile phone will receive a message with detailed information about the current TP.

Leave your request *105#. After a couple of seconds, a menu with various items will appear on the mobile device display. You need to go to the “My Account” category, then “My TP”. Once in the last section, press the “1” key. After this, an SMS will be sent to your phone with a description of your TP.

It’s even easier to check your TP by requesting *105*3*1# or *105*1*2*1#. After sending any of the commands, your cellular device will receive an SMS with detailed information on the current tariff plan on the number.

Service center

Despite the fact that the connection to the operator does not occur immediately and sometimes you have to wait up to 20 minutes, some subscribers find this method the most convenient, so we will consider it.

To check your TP, call 0500 and, after waiting for a connection with a call center employee, ask your question.

By the way, by calling this number, you don’t have to wait for a connection with the operator, but find out the TP through the voice menu. To do this, you will need to press the keys on your phone in the following sequence: 1, 1, 3, 1. After dialing the last digit, an SMS with a description of the TP will be sent to your mobile phone.

Personal Area

You can get into the personal account by going to www.megafon.ru. If you are not yet a registered user, be sure to log in. It won't take you much time.

Once on the main page of the site, in the top left corner you can see information on your TP. By clicking on “Settings”, you can drill down into the data and view a more detailed description.

Application

In fact, the algorithm for checking a valid TP in the application for iOS and Android is similar to viewing through a personal account. The only difference is that you enter your login information not on the website, but directly in the application itself.

You can download the service completely free of charge on Google Play and Apple Store. After installing and entering your data, you can immediately begin checking the TP. As mentioned above, it is identical to viewing information through the personal account.

Office

If the methods described above do not suit you, you can always contact the nearest Megafon branch for help. The company's employees will help resolve any issues and also tell you about new offers and promotions.

The only thing you will need to do is present a document proving your identity, because connection data can only be provided to the true owner of the SIM card.

How much does it cost to change a number?

You can only change the simple dial XXX XXX XXXXX, which falls into the category of regular numbers, for free. But if the choice falls on another option, part of the gold or silver series, then you will need to pay the corresponding amount.

Benefits of saving a SIM card

This option has many advantages. Firstly, you don’t have to look for Megafon’s office and waste time going there. The entire procedure can be completed online without leaving your home. It is enough to have access to the Internet on a computer or smartphone. Secondly, most subscribers have their contacts recorded on the SIM card, and not on the phone. When replacing it, all numbers will have to be entered manually again. Needless to say, saving a SIM card will save a huge amount of time in this case. Thirdly, a very good tariff may be attached to the SIM card, which will be lost when it is changed. But on the new one you can no longer select it, since Megafon sent it to the archive. Thus, saving a SIM card will also help save money on telephone communications.
