After purchasing a SIM card, each user receives a unique phone number, which is not repeated among other subscribers of the provider. The sequence consists of 11 random numbers, it can be quite difficult to remember, especially the first time after connecting, with the exception of premium beautiful numbers. The subscriber's contact number is important information that may be required in any area of life. The operator has prepared several simple ways to find out your Tele2 number yourself and with the help of company consultants.
Find out the number using key combinations (USSD request)
Using USSD commands is the easiest and fastest way. Each telecom operator has a set of such commands that help you quickly get the information you need. To find out your number, dial the following USSD request on your phone: *201#.
As a result, you will see the following message on the screen: “Your federal number is +795хххххххх.” The crosses here are your number, and the first numbers are not three, like 987 for MTS, but two, since Tele 2 has numbers starting with both 953 and 950 . You don’t have to remember the number, just dial this combination and you will find out everything.
An easy way to determine your personal phone number on the Tele2 network
There are several ways to identify your mobile phone. But the simplest one is provided to us by the official website of the operator - https://msk.tele2.ru/?pageParams=askForRegion%3Dtrue. By the way, if you don’t know yet, you have your own personal account on this site. Where you can not only find out the numbers of your number, but also find out what services you have connected to. Manage a list of services, as well as receive electronic receipts and expense statements using your number.
No matter what region of Russia you live in, if you use the Tele2 network, you can find out the digits of your number using a short command. Enter the following combination on your mobile phone: *201# and green button to call.
The network will immediately respond to you with a message in which you will see the treasured numbers of your mobile phone. It is very comfortable.
You can save this command to your phone book so that you can exchange numbers with friends at any time.
There is another sure way to find out your number - call Tele2 technical support.
How to find out your number using SMS on Tele2?
There is no special SMS function for receiving information about your number. However, you can use a free “call me back” message, which is usually sent when your balance is negative.
On your phone, dial *118*subscriber number# . The subscriber to whom you sent the message will receive an SMS with the text “A subscriber asks you to call back...”. Your phone number will also be indicated here. You can contact the contact center by dialing 611.
Other ways to find a phone number
These are not all the ways to find out the numbers of your mobile phone. Operating systems can help us with this too. For example, the most popular one is Android, which shows it in its settings. You need to select them in the main menu and open the “About phone” item. Then find the line called “Status”. It stores data that is important to us. There is a lot of useful information about the phone and its network characteristics, including the phone number of the current SIM card.
There is no such feature in iOS, but there are useful tools here. For example, open Settings and select Phone. After this, you need to open special support services. Where you can also find out your own mobile phone number on Tele2.
Ways to check your Tele2 number if the SIM is blocked or there is no network
Under such conditions, you will not be able to find out your phone number. In the absence of a network, you will not be able to make any calls, send SMS or requests. One thing is necessary here - to find a point where there is a network. As for the SIM card being blocked, it can happen either in the case of a negative balance or a long period of non-use of the SIM card. In the first case, you either top up your balance, and then
then you use any method to find out the number, or send a “call me back” request, which is precisely intended for those who are in the red. As for the second blocking option, all operations here are useless, since according to the terms of the contract, if you have not used the SIM card for a long time. It is permanently blocked and is inoperative.
Another useful service is Tele2-Guide. We dial * 111 # and get all the information on the number, tariff, etc.

To complete the method, you will need a friend with a telephone and your phone with a Tele2 SIM card. We find the friend’s contacts in the address book and dial him into the application with the handset icon. Then the beeps come and the voice of a friend sounds, we ask him for his number. A true friend will definitely dictate and even congratulate you on your purchase. But there is a catch: the subscriber may have an anti-identifier. In this case, it is worth trying another option.

Often, an employee will require passport data and a one-time code to check whether this SIM card is valid for the subscriber. If everything matches, they will tell you your phone number and answer any questions that interest you.
For those with a busy schedule, there is a faster option. The operator provides each subscriber with access to a contact center, in other words, a support service. To get in touch you need to dial the short number 611 or 636 for corporate users. If the company of a robot is not very pleasant for you, then after the beeps you should press 0 and you will be connected with a living person. You may need to provide the passport information used to obtain the SIM card. Thus, the Tele2 customer support service will help you find out your number.

More often, the combination of numbers is forgotten by people who recently switched to TELE2 or changed their SIM card.

Checking the number on the SIM card in the modem
On a personal computer, Internet access is provided via USB modems from Tele2. These devices are small in size, similar to a flash drive. A regular SIM card is inserted into the device's body, so modems are also tied to a specific phone number. You can find out information in the following ways:

Why is this issue being raised?
We are all accustomed to the fact that we remember our phone number by heart, and a dozen other numbers of friends and relatives in addition. But here’s the problem, imagine a situation where you just changed your operator, started using its services, and when asked to provide your number to someone, you don’t have a clear answer.
Paradoxically, no one knows how to use the function of viewing their own number on most smartphones today, so this question remains open for them.
Advantages and disadvantages
Like any other operator option, this one has positive and negative sides.

- the ability to choose a phone yourself;
- ease of adding and disabling options;

- not all people can spend an additional 5-10 rubles on communications.
You can cancel the program at almost any time if you no longer need it. It is possible to buy a Tele2 city number by first selecting the most convenient and beautiful one.
