Find out the SMS center number
Most often, the number of the SMS message center on Tele2 is saved automatically when the SIM card is activated, but sometimes a failure occurs and the transmission of messages is suspended. In this case, the user needs to know how to enter the correct data and restore sending messages .
What is an SMS center number?
The center stores, transmits, and converts SMS messages. The center number is registered in the settings of your mobile device and is used so that you can send SMS. It is saved in the SIM card memory and entered using the settings.
When we send a message, it is automatically stored in the center and only then delivered to the recipient.
If the number is not specified or is specified incorrectly, you will not be able to send an SMS. In this case, incoming messages will arrive without any restrictions. If the subscriber cannot receive an incoming SMS, it will be saved until it becomes possible to send it.
What is this
SMSC is the element in the mobile telephone network that delivers SMS messages. Companies using wireless networks often use proprietary communication protocols, making it impossible to connect without using an SMS gateway. The SMS gateway acts as a relay between two devices and transmits protocols. How it works:
- The message was sent from a cellular device.
- Received by Short Message Service Center (SMSC).
- SMSC sends an SMS request to the Location Register (HLR) to locate the customer.
- The HLR receives the request and responds with an active or inactive status.
- SMSC routes the SMS to the correct mobile device (active) or holds it for a certain period of time (inactive).
- The client is using the device and SMSC will try to deliver and transmit the SMS.
- SMSC receives confirmation that the sms was received and then classifies it as sent.

Method 1 . The service number is contained in the Tele2 Subscriber Directory, which the client receives upon connection. If the directory is lost, you can easily download it from the company's official website.

To send SMS from a cell phone, the subscriber just needs to insert the card into the smartphone slot. But sometimes failures occur in the automatic setup of the Tele2 SMS center. Also, these settings can be changed by the user accidentally. To solve the problem, you need to know the SMS Center service number.
What is SMS center
This center is a number that is registered in the settings as a kind of gateway through which SMS can be sent from the phone. The numbers are determined for each region. If the phone stops sending SMS, then you need to look at three things:
- Balance on your mobile phone account.
- Is the Tele2 message center number indicated correctly?
- Does the free SMS delivery method from Tele2 work correctly?
It should also be noted that if the number is entered incorrectly, it will not be completely inoperative. This means that only the transfer is not effective or the message is not sent.
Checking the correctness of the entered data
To check the accuracy of the entered data, you need to go to the phone menu, find the “SMS center” item and check the specified digital code. Depending on the device model, this item may be marked differently.
In addition, it is worth checking the “Message Type” item. In most phones, this menu may be called “SMS”, “Normal”, “Text”, “Standard”. If something else is specified, the SMS cannot be sent.
If there is a “Data transmission channel” item in the menu, then GSM must be checked.
Other causes of message problems
If the center number is registered correctly, and there is enough money in the account, but SMS still do not go out or do not arrive, you can check several more versions.
1. Incoming messages are blocked. This item is located in the settings in the same place as the message center number. See if options like “Filter”, “Spam”, “Blocking”, etc. are unchecked.
2. The “Black List” service is activated.
Checked through your personal account or by command *220#. If any subscriber is blacklisted, you will not be able to receive a message from him.
3. Incoming SMS memory is full.
The problem occurs on the simplest models of push-button phones. There you need to carefully clear the list of incoming and outgoing SMS messages so that there is always room for new ones.
If you have checked all possible situations and the problem with SMS persists, contact your operator at 611. He will send you the settings or perhaps advise you to change the SIM card.
Instructions
The first step is to try automatic setup. To do this, you need to turn off your mobile phone, remove the SIM card and after a minute insert it again. If the problem still persists, then you need to go to the phone’s “Messages” menu, and then to “Settings”. In this item you need to select the sub-item “Sms center” (there may be another similar name depending on the brand and model of the phone).
For most regions, a universal number is used (+7-904-339-00-00).
However, it is worth noting that for a number of subscriber service regions, the Tele2 SMS center number may be different:
- Rostov-on-Don: +7-904-349-00-00;
- Kaliningrad: +7-902-250-99-00;
- Krasnodar, +7-908-680-00-68;
- Vladimir +7-904-857-42-00;
- Voronezh +7-904-214-00-00;
- Chelyabinsk +7-904-309-00-00;
- Smolensk +7-904-339-00-00.
If you have a different number, you need to manually change it to the correct one. After making manual settings, it is recommended to restart the mobile without removing the SIM card. If the problem is not resolved, you must use one of the following recommendations:
- Find out from the interlocutor with whom you are communicating via SMS whether he has any difficulties with sending and receiving SMS. It may also have an incorrect or missing gateway number.
Tele2 SMS message center: basic settings
In most cases, installing a SIM card in the subscriber’s phone is sufficient to correctly automatically configure Tele 2 SMS to receive and send short text messages. However, there are cases when automatic configuration did not occur or the settings were lost due to certain factors (in particular, in the case of accidental or intentional changes by the subscriber himself).
As a result, the user is faced with the problem that Tele2 SMS messages are not sent or there are failures in receiving SMS messages.
