It has been possible to determine the number of a calling subscriber for a long time. This happened when there were no cell phones yet. To be able to identify a number on a landline phone, you had to buy a special device. Later this service became paid. It could be connected at your telephone exchange.
Regarding cellular communications, it should also be said here that initially, when it was created, caller ID was meant. There was no need to connect anything here. The number is sent to the subscriber by default. But also the one who calls can prohibit showing his number. To do this, he will need to connect to the caller ID service. AntiAON on Tele2 can prohibit showing the caller's number. This may be required to make an anonymous call in one case or another.
Also, when a subscriber needs to not only hide his number, but get rid of calls from annoying clients, then in this case the “Black List” option may also be useful to him.
You also need to know that Anti-Caller ID will only work when the person being called does not have the Deliberately Concealed Number Identifier option connected. But this service is not very popular at present. It is needed only when a certain number receives many intrusive calls from hidden numbers. If such a service is not activated for the subscriber, then he will only be able to see “Number not identified” on the phone screen when receiving a call. It could also be a different inscription; everything will depend on the model of a particular phone.
Connecting AntiAON through phone settings
How to hide a Tele2 number for free, because not all phones can do this using call parameters?
Try going to the phone menu and finding the settings or parameters of the device; in the “Network” tab you should find the “Hidden number” field. Next, you should click “Hide”, and from the line “Defined by the network” you need to uncheck the box.
Try checking your work by calling a friend.
This option is provided free of charge. If the number is still visible to other subscribers, then you will need to activate a paid function from the company.
Service cost
The first connection is free, the subsequent one will cost 3 rubles, and the subscription fee will be 3 rubles per day.
It is worth noting that prices may vary depending on the region, so check with the operator for the cost before ordering.
How to hide a number on Tele2
To hide a number on Tele2, you need to activate the AntiAON service. After this, you can make any voice calls and not worry about the subscriber’s number being displayed on the screen of the person he is calling. It is also worth noting that if an SMS is sent, the number will not be hidden. This service costs 3 rubles per day. Connection is also 3 rubles. After activating the number, you will not need to enter any additional commands to hide it.
You also need to know that the settings on your phone will not help you hide your number. To do this, you just need to connect to this service.
Connecting, disconnecting and managing an option
To connect Caller ID, Tele2 offers several options: remotely, calling a telecom operator, or personally visiting the sales office. To activate the option, you just need to be a subscriber of the provider and have a positive balance.
USSD commands
To connect, you need to send a request from your phone using the combination *117*1# . To deactivate the service, enter *117*0# . If the subscriber wants to check the status of the number, enter the command *117# .
Personal account or Tele2 mobile application
To call via Caller ID, configure the option through the provider’s web account or in the original application. In the first case, you need to register in your personal account, and in the second, you need to download the service and activate your profile. The My Tele2 application is available from Google Pay for Android or from the App Store for iOS. After these steps you need:
- Go to the “Service Management” section.
- Find the position “Anti-determinant”.
- Connect.
After activation, the number will not be detected by other Tele2 clients. An SMS notification will indicate that the service has been successfully completed.
In the communication salon
Employees of offices at your place of residence will help you close your number code. When contacting, the user provides his passport, and the operator makes changes to the system. Only the person who owns the SIM card can ask for help.
A call to 611.
Is it possible to find out a hidden number
If you install the “Caller ID Identifier”, then even those subscribers who have the “Anti-identifier” installed will not be able to hide their digital data. Detailed description of the option:
- The subscription activation cost is 100 rubles;
- Daily subscription fee - 6 rubles;
- Connection - *210*1#;
- Disable - *210*0#;
- Command to check status −*210#.
Every Tele2 Mobile client can become incognito if he activates a subscription through Internet resources, personally visits the company’s office, or contacts a technical support employee. To obtain anonymity yourself, just send a request *117*1#.
Nuances of work
The anti-determinant has many shortcomings and nuances. It is not positioned by the company as a serious tool, and is rather invented for fun. It may not work:
- If the called party is outside your home region.
- You have left your home region and are making a call.
- The number to which you are making an outgoing call is registered with another operator.
- You are calling on a landline number.
- The call recipient has the option to recognize intentionally hidden numbers enabled.
- The function was not paid for on time due to insufficient funds in the account.
Correct operation is provided only in the home region on Tele2 numbers. The home region is the region in which you entered into a contract for the use of cellular communication services.
If you have the anti-identifier option enabled and you want to find out information from the operator by calling the helpline using the toll-free code 611, you will not be able to listen to:
- balance of money on the balance sheet;
- data on paid services and subscriptions;
- the presence or absence of these options you currently have.
To find out, use the Tele2 web interface by logging into your own account.
If you additionally use the service of recognizing hidden numbers, then the caller with AntiAON will be displayed in international format. If the subscriber's data is entered into contacts, he will be identified by the name that you assigned to him.
The validity period of the first and second options is not limited, and therefore can be considered on an indefinite basis. If there is not enough money on your balance, Anti-AON activation does not take place and incoming calls from you are detected again.
If you use archived tariffs (those for which the operator no longer connects) and your balance goes into the minus by more than 5 rubles, then any Tele2 subscriber who calls you will be hidden. The operator has been using this trick since March 25, 2021. So don't be surprised if everyone around you becomes hidden, maybe you just need to top up your balance.
Other ways to disconnect
If for any reason you cannot turn off AntiAON using the proposed methods, you can contact the technical support service by calling 611. The operator will ask you to go through the identification procedure: give the owner’s last name, first name and patronymic, and passport details.
Having specified what actions need to be performed, the employee will disable the “Anti-identifier” independently. An SMS message will be sent to the subscriber’s phone about the deactivation of the service.
Employees of the company's communication salon can help you disable the function. Customer service occurs only after presenting your passport. You can find out the address of the nearest salon on the official Tele2 website.
How to connect and disconnect AntiAON
If hidden information about the caller is necessary, you need to figure out how to connect to Tele2 without calling the operator’s customer support service. You can do this in several ways:
- USSD command. From the smartphone keyboard you need to dial *117*1#. Activation will be completed instantly, which the user will learn about from a text notification.
- Personal Area. The method is convenient for those subscribers who have registered an account on the operator’s official website. After logging into your account, you need to go to the “My Services” section menu. Here find “AntiAON” (responsible for hidden data) and click “Connect”.
- Mobile app. The method is relevant for users of smartphones with the Android and iOS operating systems. The application is downloaded for free and installed on your smartphone. After logging in, you need to go to the “My” section and click “Connect”.
To disable unused “AntiAON” on Tele2, you need to dial *117*0#. The command after the call deactivates the service. Disconnection is free. To deactivate, you can also use your Personal Account. The procedure is as follows:
- log in to your account;
- in the horizontal menu of your account, find the “Services” section;
- enter the menu;
- select the “My Services” tab;
- find the hidden number function in the list of active options;
- Click on the buttons next to “Disable”.
The procedure for disabling a hidden number in the My Tele2 mobile application will be similar. After logging into your account, you need to go to the “My Services” section, and then to the “Connected” and “Management” tabs. The last step is to click on the hidden number feature and turn it off.
Caller ID in your smartphone
Many users believe that their smartphones allow you to connect the Caller ID option by default, since it is present in the system settings, but this is not the case. For example, on Android you can go to “Settings”, select “Calls” - “Advanced settings” and go to the “Caller ID” tab.
Yes, there is such an item, but it can only be activated if the option has been activated by your mobile operator. If it has not been activated, then you will not be able to use it from your smartphone using the basic Android settings, and there is no way around it! Therefore, statements that Caller ID can be used for free without contacting an operator are erroneous!
How to find out a hidden phone number
If relatives or friends hide information about themselves, it will not be difficult to determine their hidden Tele2 numbers with the help of another additional feature from the operator. It's called "Intentionally Hidden Number Identifier." Since it is not included in tariff plans, its use will be paid, but connection is free. The cost depends on the user's region of residence. The price fluctuates around 3 rubles. in a day.

Before adding additional options, you should find out their cost. If it is high, it is wiser to change your phone settings.
USSD command
You can disable the “Anti-determinant” yourself. To do this, dial the combination *117*0# on the dialer of your mobile device and press the call button. After processing the request, Tele2 will send an SMS message to the number with information about deactivating the function.
You can send a command from your phone for free.
Cost and conditions
You can activate the hidden number service on Tele2 at a fixed price, which will be charged daily. In general, anonymous calls will cost just under 100 rubles. per month.
The cost is indicated for the Moscow and Moscow region. In other areas, the price of the service may vary.

- The option applies only to contacts on the internal network. When making calls to SIM cards of other operators, users will see the data.
- The service is relevant within the framework of work in the home region.
- The function is automatically deactivated outside the Russian Federation.
- Does not work when sending SMS.
Features of sending anonymous SMS in Tele2
You can send SMS from an unknown mobile phone only using third-party resources, since the operator does not provide such services even for an additional fee. Sending anonymous SMS is often associated with criminal activities, and tele2 does not want to take part in this, much less encourage such actions.
Partial secrecy can be achieved through the operator's website MyTVBox. The service provides the opportunity to send free messages to subscribers without indicating the sender's coordinates, but with the IP address recorded from the place of sending.
There is also the option of sending SMS with a hidden number - using special email services and instant messengers. They do not require confirmation by mobile phone when authorizing users; a valid email is sufficient.

- enter phone number;
- click “Find out”.

- enter the characters from the picture;
- Click "Find".

What is the service
When you purchase a Tele2 SIM card, you automatically receive a set of free functions. One of them is Automatic Number Identifier (ANI). There is no need to pay for this option, it is completely free.
If you want to know how to hide your number when calling Tele2, you need to familiarize yourself with the AntiAON service. It hides data when calling other Tele2 numbers, as well as other Russian operators. There can be many reasons for connecting to this service: some people want to talk to a person who does not answer the phone, others do not want to leave their number when calling private companies. There is always only one way out of the situation - AntiAON.
You can hide yourself for free, but each day you will be charged a subscription fee for the service. The cost in all regions is different, approximately 3 rubles.
