Useful MTS commands for SMS, Internet, tariffs and other services

With Internet access, the user can perform a lot of operations with a mobile phone: connect and disconnect options, change the tariff plan, register in the bonus system, activate paid daily mailings, install music instead of beeps and other operations. But what to do if the Internet traffic runs out or there is no access to the network in the first place? Then combinations and USSD requests will come to the rescue.

These tools are great for:

• obtaining up-to-date information about the current tariff and available tariff plans;
• control of expenses/funds on the balance sheet;
• activation/deactivation of services or subscriptions;
• to obtain information about the status of connected packages with SMS/calls/Internet access;
• replenish your account without commission from a bank card/MTS Money service/from a current account.

Portal 111

Perhaps one of the most convenient tools for settings. When you enter *111#, you access an interactive menu that is opened/collapsed using the buttons on the keyboard. There are the following sections:

• offer of the day;
• GoodOK (allows you to change boring beeps to your favorite songs);
• account (information about the account status, completed and rejected transactions);
• tariffs (established plan and available for transition);
• entertainment and information block (horoscopes for each day for a specific zodiac sign, funny videos, weather for the next day in the selected region, a catalog of games, current news, business articles);
• convenient communication (opportunities with a zero balance, voice mail, call forwarding, “You’ve been called”, call waiting, option to block advertising SMS or unwanted calls, “MTS Wallet” service).

The functionality is not inferior to your personal account, and the necessary information is found in a few seconds. Access to this service is provided to all subscribers; no payment is required to use the mobile assistant. There are no restrictions on the tariff plan. Even while roaming, this tool will allow you to make transactions and receive balance reports for free.

What is the short number 9875, how to get money back for SMS or subscription

None of us wants to pay twice, and especially no one wants to pay for anything, and especially for a quietly imposed “for nothing.” When using his mobile phone, a person quite reasonably expects that the money spent on communication services will be spent only on what he himself has done:

The most popular useful USSD commands for MTS

Managing communication services using queries

In order to use mobile communications more efficiently and comfortably, subscribers need to know the basic USSD requests of MTS Belarus. Using simple commands, you can quickly find out your balance, connect/disconnect services, top up your phone number, and much more.

MTS requests are a regular text message and are an alternative to the usual SMS. Their main difference is that they are used by the telecom operator only within its network for service alerts. All commands are similar to each other and, as a rule, look like this:

• “*” - the symbol indicates the beginning of the command;
• Next comes some order of numbers to determine the action;
• "#" is a symbol indicating the end of a command.

Let's look at the most useful commands that subscribers most often have to use.

To manage your account

To connect and disconnect tariffs

On the Smart tariff, the command *100*1# will help the user find out how much money is left in the account. To find out the remaining traffic on Internet services, you need to dial *217# .

• *100*2# — the user will find out the balance if he receives a balance from connecting services for promotions that MTS is giving away;
• *111*936# — connect an additional Internet option. This command is not for the Smart tariff, where options are activated automatically when the balance is over;
• switch to different tariffs: *111*1027# - Smart NonStop tariff, *111*777 # - Ultra tariff. The “Per Second” tariff is activated as follows: *111*881# .

Attention! For each tariff on the MTS website in Russia, a USSD code or SMS command for connection is indicated

Commands for SMS messages

To connect additional SMS messages, the user must type the following requests:

• *111*444*50 (150, 300)# — a package of 50 (150, 300) SMS will be received by the subscriber upon activation of this code;
• *111*2230# — SMS fees will not be deducted from your account. The user will be required to pay 10 rubles daily - subscription fee;
• *111*2133# — unlimited SMS at night;
• *111*2143# - out of 4 SMS, 1 is paid.

To activate/deactivate services

Short number services

You can check who is calling or sending SMS from short numbers, and find out the cost of SMS and calls to such numbers. You can also find information about connected services by ID* of the content service.

To do this, use the search by short numbers and identifiers*.

*Service ID is a unique 14-digit code that is displayed in the “Number” column in the details. For example, Cost Control

How can I find out what the money was written off for?

You can get information about all debits from your account in the My MTS application in the “Expenses” section or in your Personal Account: select a period and receive a statement online.

How to control write-offs for entertainment services?

To keep costs on entertainment services under control, we recommend opening a separate personal account. It is created specifically to pay for content services that MTS provides with the involvement of content providers. This way you will protect yourself from unexpected debits from your main account. For details, see the Separate personal account section in the Procedure for the provision of content services.

How to find out the cost of sending SMS and MMS to a short number?

Specify a short number in the SMS and send this message to number 2282 (free on your home network, in roaming - according to your tariff).

In the details there is a strange number with the inscription Dostup_k. What it is?

Why is the service needed?

The service blocks paid calls and SMS to short numbers and some subscriptions. This means that if you connect a subscription on a third-party resource*, the ban will work and the subscription will not connect. But if you connect the same subscription on the MTS resource** (for example, in your Personal Account or in the “My MTS” application), the blocking will not work, but the subscription will be activated.

Who is it useful for?

The service is especially useful for parents who can protect their child’s phone from accidental and unwanted connection to paid services. The service would also be appropriate on the phone of an elderly person who is not very friendly with technology and cannot always understand what certain actions on the phone can lead to.

legislation

Is there any basis for such claims, strictly speaking? After all, at some point the user voluntarily performed some action that ensured his place as a victim in the chain (relative to the short number 9875). This is precisely the position that telecom operators adhere to when a subscriber, outraged by the loss of money, begins to search for the truth.

And this is called the federal law of July 23, 2013 N 229-FZ “On Amendments to the Federal Law “On Communications”.

In it, Article 2 of the Basic Law is supplemented with subclause 34.1, which defines what “content services” are.

The legislator made this definition as general as possible, practically fitting into it everything that is not the actual connection. Those. if the user using the phone and through the telecom operator’s channels receives, quote,

...reference, entertainment and (or) other additionally paid information...", gets the opportunity "... to participate in voting, games, competitions and similar events...,

Then he, the user, receives a content service. And it, in turn, being provided with the participation of third parties, falls under the addition of paragraph 5 of Article 44 of the Federal Law “On Communications”, which prescribes a mechanism for protecting the consumer by:
