Methods for checking the amount of debt using an MTS personal account

Has such an incident ever happened to you when, during an important conversation on your mobile phone, you suddenly lost connection? You started dialing the number of your interlocutor again, and in the receiver you heard only the mechanical voice of the auto-informer: “There are not enough means to establish a connection. Please top up your balance." At the same time, your opponent did not call back and was waiting for the call.

All you could do was urgently look for the nearest terminal to transfer money to your phone, simultaneously scolding yourself for not checking your debt on your MTS personal account in advance.

To avoid getting into such situations, study all the ways to find out your debt in a timely manner:

• USSD command;
• MTS direct line;
• cellular company office;
• Personal Area;
• "My MTS"

and pay it using your personal phone account:

• in the terminal;
• at an ATM;
• at the telecom operator's office;
• from an electronic wallet;
• on the MTS website;
• via mobile application.

Client identification

Often, users receive SMS notifications on their phones, which say that there is a debt on their personal account, and the operator asks them to pay it off urgently. However, many people simply ignore such messages because they do not know what their account number is. This approach is not the most reasonable, as problems may arise in the future.

If the SIM card is already closed and no longer valid, then the only way to find out the debt is through your personal account. It is with his help that the balance will be repaid. If it is discovered that you have unpaid funds for using the operator’s services, it is recommended to close the arrears. If you do not agree with the charges, you should dispute it by filing a claim with the company.

If a debt arises, you should not ignore the operator’s demands, as this may lead to undesirable consequences: transfer of the debt to collectors or a lawsuit.

Test method

Finding out the exact balance is practiced in three main ways: by telephone, a visit to the company’s office or the Internet . Moreover, in the above cases, you will need to submit an application in the form of a specific USSD command. This term refers to a special combination of characters that is sent by a request to a service provider to clarify the required information.

Self-checking of the balance is carried out via USSD request, the Internet, a call or a visit to the office

In such situations, it will be possible to resolve the issue of how to find out the MTS phone number - the debt on the personal account when checking online allows users to clarify the information they are looking for. This function is useful for subscribers who have several numbers assigned to them . Please note that for a personal conversation with a company employee, you will need to call or come to the office.

The advantages of receiving information remotely are the simplicity and speed of submitting an application and receiving an operator response. However, with such a choice, the client will not be able to clarify the details of the occurrence of arrears.

If we talk about calls to an operator, the disadvantage of this method is that users cite the loss of time to connect with a live interlocutor - after all, calls are received automatically. In addition, it will not be possible to find out individual nuances about the occurrence of a negative balance over the telephone.

Visiting branches or telephone conversations with company employees takes a lot of time

Therefore, we recommend that the provider’s clients use remote notification, and in situations where questions arise about the calculation of the amount, it is appropriate to contact the official branch of the company . Here the subscriber has access to the functions of writing a claim, which will be reviewed by the company’s management. In addition, in “live communication” it will be possible to more accurately clarify the details of accruing funds or connecting loan services.

Interaction of collectors with relatives of the debtor

We use the phone

Let's start with the option familiar to people of the older generation - calling MTS employees. You can find out the debt on your MTS personal account here by dialing the number “ 8 800 250 0890 ”. To clarify the necessary information, we call the passport data at the request of the operator. Now the person receives the information he is looking for. Please note that this option is not suitable for clarifying the details of the accrual; in such situations, a personal visit to the office is appropriate.

A call to number 0890 will clarify the situation with the balance status

The next method for finding out the status of the account balance is to send USSD encoding in the format “ *100# green handset ”. This method is practiced by phone owners who receive messages written in Cyrillic. If the device only supports Latin characters, the command changes to “#100# call key”.

After entering the request, the subscriber receives a response SMS, which contains information about the status of the personal account and the limit of funds available to the user.

If the company’s client has previously connected the “Promised Payment” or “Credit” services, the application format changes. In such a situation, the request is submitted in the following format: “ *100*3# call ”. The above example is suitable for phone owners who receive messages in all languages. But owners of devices that only accept the Latin alphabet will need to enter the combination “ #100*3# green tube ”.

Conventional ways to clarify debt on a subscriber’s account

Note that the commands listed above are free . Moreover, this point applies to applications submitted within the home zone and in roaming. As you can see, it is not difficult to clarify the necessary information if you have a mobile phone. However, there are other options for finding out the account balance, which we will discuss below.

Find out information online

Now let's move on to consider the question of how to clarify the necessary information if the phone is unavailable. Here the provider offers several ways to obtain information on the Internet. A universal method for gadgets of any type here is to register a personal account on the company’s website. Here you will need to indicate your contact number as your login and create a password by linking your email to your account.

Creating a personal account on the operator’s official website is a convenient way to clarify information about debts

Then a link for user authorization will be sent to the mailbox and the client will have access to his personal page. Note that information on the account balance is indicated next to information about the phone number and user. That is, there is no need to send a special request - all data is displayed on the main page.

An alternative method of habitual registration is to install an application that replaces the user’s personal account and allows you to manage services. However, launch here is possible if the device supports 2G, 3G and 4G formats.

For owners of tablets that do not support messages in USSD format, it is appropriate to consider finding and installing a program to send these commands as an alternative. After the first launch of such software, the client has the right to use the service by sending a usual request, similar to a mobile phone. However, some users use operator cards in Wi-Fi modems. A different algorithm works here.

The MTS Connect package contains the necessary drivers to clarify information about the account balance using any method convenient for the user

By purchasing the MTS Connect package , the subscriber receives comprehensive services. The package includes an operator card and a regular or combined modem or router. Please note that the service for checking accounts is included with the connected number; all you need to do is configure the device. To do this, you will need to connect the modem and wait for the package software to be installed.

In this situation, the subscriber has access to the functions of using USSD commands, monitoring traffic and account balance.

The firmware allows the above options to be used. The choice of a specific method here is determined only by the preferences of the client. Here you can also check the remaining megabytes available for using the network by sending a message with the text “ ? " to the number " 5340 ".

The second clarification option is carried out by sending a request in the format “ *111*217# call key ”. In addition, in cases where the user is temporarily unable to access the device, the operator provides information about the account status by telephone, which is indicated above, or during a personal visit to the office.

Visit to a company branch

Finally, let’s decide how to find out MTS debt by phone number directly from the service provider’s employees. This method of obtaining information is inconvenient due to time constraints and losses. Considering that the office is open during certain hours, it will not be possible to obtain the necessary information around the clock. However, the advantage of this option is the chance to clarify in detail the history of charges and file a claim if the subscriber disagrees.

Visiting the office is not the most convenient, but reliable option

To get the information you are looking for, have your passport and be prepared to give the number by which the arrears are supposedly accrued. A company employee verifies the information and names the exact amount of debt on the consumer's account . Here you will be able to clarify for which services the debt was incurred and disable unnecessary services.

It should be noted that the reason for the appearance of random debts is late payment of loans from the provider as part of the package for Crimea. You can read more about the methods of such lending by following this link.

Possible consequences of debt

If you have a negative amount in your account, you should not ignore this fact. You should find out how much you need to repay and how this can be done. For late payment of funds, the company has the right to sell your debt to collectors or go to court.

Moreover, it does not matter what exactly you did not pay for: television system, mobile communications, cable television or other services. You will have to deposit money if the provider requires it. In case of controversial situations, the court does not always take the client’s side unless it has strong evidence that the debts attributed to him are non-existent.

Of course, often mobile operators do not resort to such radical measures, simply writing off non-payments. But if the amount is quite large, then more serious measures are likely. First of all, you will be sent a warning letter. It can be sent by mail, SMS or e-mail.
