At the moment, transferring money from Yota to Tele2 or to any of the other wireless operators is not possible. But you can use alternative methods for withdrawing money from Yota. To do this, you first need to transfer money from your wireless provider to your bank card.
Note! In the Mobile Communications category you can find all the largest federal operators, but Yota is not there.
Transferring money through your personal account
To transfer from Yota to Tele2, use a computer. If in the first case you needed an application, then here you just need to go to the official Yota website. As soon as the main page opens, the user registers and enters his personal account.
- note
- Every user can become a participant in the program. To transfer money, you will need a Yota SIM card.
In the “mobile payment” line, the user indicates the recipient’s number, then enters the amount to be transferred. Finally, the client clicks on the “Pay” item. After completing the actions, an SMS with a confirmation code will be sent to the user’s number. The numbers from the message are entered into the specified field. The SMS instruction helps the client to confirm or cancel the payment.
When making a transfer, a commission is charged to the owner of the SIM card. The subscriber must know that there is enough money in the account to pay interest on the transfer. If there are insufficient funds on the balance, the transaction will be rejected automatically.
Is direct transfer possible?
Yota, like all cellular companies, offers its customers convenient services for managing tariffs and finances , related to registering a personal account on the official website and installing a special application for mobile devices.
So, using your account, you can top up your balance and buy various content on the Internet . However, you cannot transfer money to the account of subscribers of other operators, only to the Iota mobile wallet. Previously, the option was available to all users, but since 2017 it has been canceled.
SMS or USSD commands are also not provided . This means that it will not be possible to transfer from Iota to Tele2. Thanks to special commands, you can find out your balance and phone number, but not send a certain amount to another account.
Additional terms
Each subscriber can make a transfer from Yota to Tele2, but this requires compliance with certain conditions:
- the owner is charged an additional 5 rubles for the transfer, and 5% of the transferred amount;
- The client’s balance is constantly replenished by at least 100 rubles;
- it is impossible to use funds provided by the “Promised Payment” to send to another number;
- the Iota SIM card was activated at least 2 months ago;
- the minimum payment amount is 10 rubles;
- the telephone number can be indicated in the format “+7 *** *** ** **” or without indicating +7;
- The amount must be a whole amount, kopecks are not indicated.
As soon as the operation is completed, each subscriber will receive an SMS notification. If you follow all the rules for transferring funds, your Tele2 account will be topped up within 3-5 minutes.
What difficulties may arise
Getting money back from your personal account will not be easy. Yota defines the conditions for returning funds from a personal account, which cause difficulties for subscribers:
- Money is withdrawn only to the card.
- The application review period is 30-35 days.
- The application must be submitted by the person for whom the SIM card is issued.
- A power of attorney is required if the application is submitted by another person. Therefore, sometimes it is cheaper to refuse to withdraw funds than to issue a notarized power of attorney.
Subscribers of other mobile operators can use their balance as an electronic wallet. But with Yota it’s not that simple. You cannot make a transfer from Yota to another operator. Therefore, it is better not to replenish your account with a large amount; you will not be able to withdraw extra money. The operator allows you to transfer money to a bank card. You can use it to top up your Tele2 or other operator account.
Alternative solution
As mentioned above, there is no direct way to carry out this action. For the sake of experimentation, we tried to find an alternative solution in the form of third-party systems and applications. If you have read our previous review articles about transferring funds from Yota, you probably know that you can turn to the Mobi.Money service, but even there Yota cannot act as a means of payment.
Let's try to create a QIWI wallet? Registration is successful, but the system does not recognize our balance as a second account. For example, on MegaFon or MTS, your balance can act as a means of payment: you register a wallet and simply make the transactions you need. All translation attempts, even using alternative third-party tools, have failed.
The only working method
Iota gradually tightened the screws in the field of online payments. In 2012, the “Money” service was closed, which made it possible to pay even for utilities using funds from a subscriber’s account (!). In 2017, users were faced with the inability to transfer funds to numbers of other operators.
Now there is only one way to transfer money from Yota to Tele2 or another operator’s number - go to the service point:
- There you need to present an identity card for which a contract for the provision of communication services has been drawn up;
- You also need to indicate the details of the bank card to which the “Error payment” will be returned (that’s what the operator calls this operation);
- Now you need to fill out a return application. There you need to indicate your personal and payment information, indicate the date of the erroneous payment and the date of completion.
Before you transfer money from Yota to Tele2, you need to remember that the company reserves the right to withhold a commission for this transaction.
After the money has been deposited into your bank account, you can send it to pay for your Tele2 phone. To do this, in the personal account of the user of banking services, you must perform the following steps:
- Go to the “Payments” section, select the required service;
- When searching for supplier companies, mark the telephone operator in the search results;
- Indicate the phone number and amount of money to transfer;
Depending on each specific bank, the names of menu items and interface features may vary slightly.
Communication salon
Translation via telephone is not always possible. In this case, all that remains is to contact any nearest Yota communication salon. The point's employees will provide the subscriber with all the necessary assistance to solve this problem. To do this, you will need a passport and card or bank account details.
The fact is that the employees of the communication salon cannot issue money right away. After a certain time, the amount debited from your personal account will be sent to the specified details. Then it can be transferred to the account of a Tele2 subscriber or any other operator. Usually this procedure takes up to 30 calendar days, as it is carried out through the bank. There are no commissions here.
Limits and commission
Yota imposes a number of limits on all transfers between operators. Please note that:
- It is not possible to pay for communication services for free - a commission of 5% + 5 rubles is charged for the operation;
- the minimum transfer amount is 10 rubles, the maximum is 4000;
- Eta allows you to transfer up to 5,000 per day. Financial movements are limited to 10,000 per week.
Current technologies make it possible to move finances not only between bank cards, but also from mobile to mobile. Each operator has its own terms and conditions for such transactions. This article is about how to transfer money from yota to tele2 via phone.
Top up your account without commission
Since we cannot transfer money to Tele2 from a phone connected to the Yota operator, we will try to top up the account with cash or cards. Here are several ways to top up:
- Using a bank card - through terminals and ATMs. Most often, the operation is performed without commission.
- Using payment terminals, it is possible to charge a high commission.
- Tele2 service offices are a great way to transfer money without commission.
- In cell phone stores - through the cash register or terminals installed here.
Choose the appropriate method and top up your account with the required amount. The easiest way is to link auto payment to your number and forget about regular replenishment. You will need to remember about direct transfer from Yota to Tele2 when Yota itself takes care of connecting payment services.
Performing the reverse operation
If solving the problem of how to transfer money from Yota to Tele2 is quite difficult, then carrying out a transaction in the opposite direction is much easier.
The tools of the official Tele2 website allow you to easily do this:
- In the top horizontal menu of the site, find the item “Transfers and Payments”;
- Then follow the link “All transfers and payments”;
- In the window that opens, find the words “Pay for goods and services.” In the form opposite, enter “Yota” and select the result in the drop-down list;
- Another page will open where you need to indicate the phone number from which you want to transfer funds and the account number of your Internet provider.
This service is not free. For its implementation, a commission is charged in the amount of 3% of the transferred amount, but not less than 5 rubles.
Now we should tell you how to transfer money from Tele2 to Yota via phone.
This can be done in short message mode (USSD). The command *159# opens access to the menu where the category for transferring funds is located.
