How to change your phone number on Tele2
Subscribers often associate purchasing a new phone number with the need to change a SIM card. Today this is not the case. The telecommunications operator Tele2 paid special attention to this problem and presented its own solutions that stand out among analogues of other operators. This way you can not only quickly change your contact contact, but also notify your loved ones about it. Let us pay detailed attention to this issue.
Buying a new SIM card
The easiest way to get a new number is to buy another SIM card. This standard procedure involves concluding an agreement at a customer service office, receiving and activating a SIM card. In this case, the old contract can be terminated or left unchanged.
At first glance, there is nothing special about this. But in fact, this option hides several pitfalls. Firstly, the subscriber is forced to reconnect and configure services and subscriptions. Secondly, if the tariff package you are using has archival status, then it will be impossible to reactivate it on a newly purchased SIM card. The subscriber will have to select a tariff from the currently valid list, which is not always profitable.
How to change your number on Tele2 without changing your SIM card
The easiest ways to change your Tele2 number are:
- contact the nearest communication center. A qualified consultant will clarify your requirements and present available options;
- A call to the operator's hot help service will also help solve the problem. Additionally, provide some personal information to verify your subscriber status.
The service is free of charge; the client will only need to pay for the number itself. The user retains the past data for another month, which will allow setting up call forwarding and notifying subscribers about the change. The offer is in demand and is constantly evolving.
Possible ways to change a contact
Each user can change the Tele2 number independently, if necessary. The service is provided free of charge or at a minimal cost. In this case, you can activate a standard cellular number or use unique numbers. For the latter, a fee is charged, it depends on the selected phone. You can change your contact in the following ways:
- register in the application and change your phone number there;

Each of these methods has certain nuances that should be discussed in more detail.
Changing your contact phone number through your profile

All specified data should be carefully checked, and then click on the “Place an order” item.
Please note: Immediately after submitting the application, the operator will contact the client to clarify the delivery address and timing.
How to change cell phone number through the office
Saving a SIM card is possible if the user immediately contacts the company’s office. There, the client will be provided with several telephone contacts to choose from, and then a replacement will be made. When visiting a service center, the subscriber must have a passport with him. You can also confirm your identity with other documents:
- if a citizen resides in a stateless country, he will need to present a residence permit certificate;
- a passport is provided for citizens of the Russian Federation, foreigners are also required to provide a passport;
- to establish identity, can use a military ID, driver's license or pension ID.
When the subscriber provides the necessary documents, the operator will issue a special form that must be filled in with data. On the paper you will need to write the full last name, first name and patronymic of the card owner. Personal information and a contact number for communication are also written down. Next, the consultant can assign a new phone to a SIM card or issue a new card in your hands.

How to notify about a number change
Having figured out how to change the number on Tele2, let's begin to study ways to notify friends and family. We have already reviewed the process of registration and authorization in the Personal Account; you should repeat it to gain access to the main page of the system. Go to the services section where you will have access to:
- redirection. The simplest method, which directly redirects the subscriber;
- SMS mailing. You can notify users in the form of a classic message with appropriate text;
- voice notification. The robot will read a prepared message to each incoming subscriber, which will allow you to get rid of spam bot forwarding.
Features of the change
People who have a wide circle of acquaintances and friends are reluctant to part with their phone number, since they have to notify everyone again. If previously, when switching to another cellular operator, changing the number was not even discussed, now it is not necessary. But there are always reasons that prompt customers to change their phone number.
The procedure is not easy to carry out on your own; you will have to contact cellular managers. Thus, the subscriber gets rid of calls that can be classified as spam or completely changes their social circle. It is unrealistic to change a SIM card without going to communication shops, but only via the Internet.
Using an old SIM card
Users are accustomed to the fact that almost all issues are resolved using the Internet. But now there is no way to change your MTS number online. According to official data from the website, there are several ways, but they all involve personal contact. You can change your SIM card after calling the hotline, where you can leave a request. You can choose from either a regular set of numbers or an individual one. The Personal Account does not provide the opportunity to change the number to a more prestigious one.
When changing, the client is given a choice of services. For 70 rubles a person receives a standard set of numbers, and for 750 rubles an individual set or, as they call it, “beautiful”. To be fair, it is worth noting that within this amount the numbers will differ from the usual ones, but still, owners of the combinations 915-111-11-11 (for example), pay much more for them.
