What is Tele2 Theme.

Tele2 Theme is a newer operator service than Tele Menu that works closely with the SIM menu. Its essence is to send pop-up messages to users that are not saved in the list of your SMS. Perhaps, more than once, when you unlocked your phone, you saw promotional offers that would cover the main screen? So, this is the result of the action of Tele2 Tema.

It is clear that many – if not “everyone” – are not at all interested in such proposals. However, the Tele2 theme is automatically connected to subscribers with a new type of SIM card - that is, at the moment, to almost everyone. If you specifically or accidentally click on consent, you may find yourself subscribed to paid content for which money will be charged regularly. Connecting services or registering subscriptions using Tele2 Themes is similar to the same actions through the Tele2 Menu, and they are carried out in the same way.

How to disable Tele2-Tema.

Therefore, many people want to disable Tele2 Theme. There are two ways to do this.

In the communication salon

The client can disable unnecessary services directly in the communication salon. To do this, just visit the nearest company office and describe the problem to the employee.

As for advertising mailings, it is difficult to get rid of them. It is impossible to use traditional methods . Tele2 launched specifically to refuse free subscriptions. With its help, the number from which the message comes is blacklisted, which allows you to avoid receiving advertising in the future.
