How to transfer money from Tele2 to Megafon using SMS
This is the best way that does not require access to the Internet and is available around the clock. You just need to send a message to the short number 159. It should contain information about the recipient’s number and the amount being sent. When sending money to Megafon, you need to write 3 letters before the number: mgf, that is, the message will take the form: mgf9876543210 1000. The number is entered without the first eight. In essence, the method is the same as using the Tele2 Wallet service only without the Internet, therefore the same restrictions apply to both methods:
- The minimum commission amount is 5 rubles, provided that 5% is charged on each transfer;
- You cannot transfer less than 1 rub. and more than 15,000 at a time, as well as more than 40,000 rubles. per day. (limits change periodically, so it is better to check the relevance on the website or by request to number 104);
- You also cannot transfer money more than 10 times a day.
Eventually
If you have any questions, you can consult for free via chat with a lawyer at the bottom of the screen or call by phone (consultation is free), we work around the clock.
In general, I see only advantages. The “Share gigabytes” option will be popular among subscribers and I think that soon many Tele2 customers will appreciate all its “coolness” and convenience. p, blockquote 12,0,0,0,0 –> As always, I invite you to leave questions and feedback about the service or agreement/disagreement with everything written above in the comments to the material. Thank you for your attention.
On which Tele2 tariffs can you share GB?
There are no serious restrictions in terms of tariffs in order to donate traffic. The service is available to all Tele2 customers who have a mobile operator tariff. This could be “My Tele2” or unlimited TP.
The option works automatically, that is, the client is not required to connect additional subscriptions or services. The only thing he must remember is timely replenishment of the balance. Only after the subscription fee is covered will the option be opened.

How to share gigabytes from Megafon through phone settings
The operator does not provide a special combination for transferring gigabytes to a Tele2 subscriber. So use your mobile device as a hotspot. If you have chosen the desired tariff, then go through several steps:
- Launch the phone menu.
- Go to the "Settings" section.
- Click on the “Mobile network” category and open the modem mode item.
- Click on the “Access Point Settings” button.
- On the page that opens, set the network name and password.
- Save your changes.
- Give gigabytes to a Tele2 subscriber by telling him the password for your access point.
- On some phones, you must first activate the “Sharing” function by pressing the corresponding button.
These steps are relevant for a mobile device that runs on Android. If you use a phone running on the IOS platform, the procedure will be slightly different:
- In the phone menu, open the “Settings” section.
- Click on the “Modem Mode” button.
- Activate it by moving the corresponding icon to the right.
- Here, click on the “Allow others” button.
- Turn on Wi-Fi and share gigabytes with your Tele2 subscriber. Look for the password in the “Wi-Fi Password” section. It consists of a specific combination of letters and numbers. If necessary, change it for easier memorization.
FAQ
Since transfer services between phones of different operators have proven their practicality and profitability in use, consumers have more and more questions about their functioning.
The most popular questions from users:
Yes, the service can be used for free, but only with the “Personal Budget” option activated, within the established limit, which can be easily checked in the subscriber’s personal account.
The transfer between phone numbers is carried out within a few minutes, and the money can be spent immediately after the balance has changed.
Before making a transfer, the operator sends an SMS with an activation code to the sender’s number, which should be entered only after checking the accuracy of the specified data. If an error was nevertheless made, Megafon does not participate in the return of the erroneously credited amount, since it only acts as an intermediary and is not responsible for the actions of the consumer.
If you have any questions about the functioning of the service, you can always address them to the company’s support service through the feedback form on the website, or by calling phone numbers 0500, 8-800-550-0500.
Advantages and disadvantages of the service
As you can see, the offer to share unused gigabytes of Internet traffic is very tempting and beneficial for everyone. In addition, the company has simplified the transfer process as much as possible, since there is no need to connect anything: on most tariff plans the service is already connected completely free of charge. To use it, just type the usual USSD format command or use convenient self-service for these purposes.
Description of mobile Internet from Tele2: 3G and 4G frequencies
Another advantage is the ability to share traffic with subscribers who are using legacy plans and do not want to switch to new pricing conditions. Modern trends require the operator to regularly and timely update tariff plans. Sometimes this happens in entire lines. That's why when the company announced that the Share a Gigabyte option would only be available to new customers, it automatically turned off a large number of people potentially interested in this offer. This defect was soon corrected and promptly eliminated.
Important! You can also find out exactly how many gigabytes you can transfer to a friend. To do this, you need to perform the request * 974 #. You can find out the amount that has already been transferred using the combination USSD * 974 * 3#.
If we talk about the disadvantages, the main one is the validity period of the transferred gigabytes. If you don't use them, they will burn out within a week. It is possible to extend the term, but for each term you will have to pay 50 rubles. It should be understood that the service is designed for the fact that a person urgently needs access to the global network. The cell phone company also wants to make money.
Important! Another limitation is that you can only share Internet traffic with those people who are connected to Tele2 in the same region as the user who is transferring gigabytes.
Of course, the people you need to share traffic with usually live in the same region, so there shouldn't be any problems. There are exceptions. Thus, recently some operators completely abandoned roaming throughout Russia, as a corresponding bill was introduced.
Summing up the pros and cons, the offer looks quite profitable and tempting. This allows you to optimize the transmission and consumption of unnecessary, but purchased Internet traffic between those who need it and those who do not need it. If a person has extra internet, it is better to give it to a friend or relative who needs it. This is a more rational use of money. In addition, we will tell you in detail how to transfer the Internet from Tele2 to Tele2.
Mobile transfer
This method allows you to transfer money from Megafon to another subscriber’s phone in a short time. Money is credited quickly. This method allows you to transfer funds to both Megafon subscribers and other operators: MTS, Beeline, Tele2.
To transfer money, you need to dial the USSD command:
For example, to transfer 200 rubles to the number 8-917-123-4567, you need to dial a command like: *133*200*89171234567#call. In this case, you can use any convenient number format: without the first digit, with the number 8 or +7 at the beginning.
Other features of the service
The features of the service are not limited to the previously mentioned restrictions (30 GB per month). Clients of both sides (receiving and transmitting) need to take into account a number of other features of the option:
- All donated traffic expires 7 days after receipt.
- There is a limit of 5 departures per day.
- You cannot write off gigabytes from a gift package.
- You cannot transfer the donated traffic to another subscriber.
Attention! It is important to keep in mind that it is gigabytes, not megabytes, that are available for transfer. Ultimately, the gift is limited to a range from 1 to 30 GB.
How to enable the option and transfer MB
Tele2 subscribers can share gigabytes of Internet in different ways. The company provides the following options:
- using your personal account on the Tele2 website;
- using the code command *974*, after which the recipient’s phone number is entered and the number of MB to be sent is specified;
- transfer via LK in the mobile application.
If the client uses a short combination to give traffic, then the cell number should be entered with “7”. If you enter a number in the wrong format, the procedure will not be completed and an error will appear on the screen. In this case, you must dial the combination correctly and repeat the operation. If an error occurs, additional information can be obtained from technical support.
- note
- If the subscriber decides to change the tariff plan and the service does not work in it, then the donated GB will be automatically debited. Gigabytes that were received through the “Add traffic”, “MORE” and “Much Internet” offers cannot be transferred to other users.
Transfer money via SMS
- Write a message, the text of which should look like this: +7ХХ..ХХ 200 , where +7ХХ..ХХ is the friend’s number in 11-digit format, separated by a space 200 is the amount to be transferred;
- Send SMS to number 3116.
After funds are credited to the account of the number specified in the SMS, the recipient will be sent a message about replenishing the balance, and the sender will be notified that the operation was completed successfully. Commission – 4.95% of the transferred amount.
How to remove the restriction
Many users do not like the bans on various actions, so they look for ways to get around them. To do this, you can use changing the unique IMEI code. This is a good way if a person wants to use their SIM card as a modem for distribution. The best way to generate code is to download a free program with the corresponding function. After receiving the code, download another application: Terminal Emulator. All that remains is to run it, find the line echo 'AT + EGMR = 1.10, “new IMEI”'> /dev/pttycmd1 and replace “IMEI” with the received one.
Also, the distribution restriction can be removed using special programs for modifying TTL packages. The operator needs the latter to determine whether traffic distribution has begun. The step-by-step instructions are as follows:
- Replace.
- Displays the current TTL packet value and the required one on the main screen.
- Download the free TTL-Master app.
- Enter this.
- Apply and save settings.
