The desire to change the phone number without changing the SIM card can arise for various reasons. For example, you liked a “beautiful” sequence of numbers or you need to “hide” from annoying fans. Tele2 subscribers can carry out this procedure quite simply. How is the Tele2 number changed, how to notify friends and acquaintances that it has been changed? What are the conditions for changing the number? Is it possible to become a Tele2 customer and keep my number by leaving another telecom operator?
Change Tele2
The mobile operator in question allows its customers to freely change the number. Moreover, the implementation of this procedure can be carried out only by the owner of the number. If this is not possible and the person to whom the SIM card is registered cannot be present, then you will need to provide a power of attorney (necessarily certified by a notary). The change of the Tele2 number is carried out only at the office of the company. The owner of the SIM card or his authorized representative should provide an identification card and a power of attorney (if any).
What is the cost of the service?
It is not possible to name the specific amount that will have to be spent on changing the number due to the fact that it may differ in different areas of the country. For the Tula region, for example, it is only fifty rubles, provided that you need to get a regular number (without beautiful "tails", alternations, specific combinations). The client will be able to choose the number he likes. If the subscriber likes an option from categories other than “Normal”, then in addition to the above amount, you will need to add its cost. Changing the number "Tele2" to "beautiful" can also be made in the office of the company with a choice. You can book your favorite combination of characters in the operator’s online store.
How to notify about the change of Tele2 number
You can notify your friends and acquaintances of a change in number, regardless of which service provider was used previously. This service is free and involves the use of call forwarding services. The first thing to do is to send a text message from the Tele2 number (new), in which to write the numbers 81 and indicate the old number. After that, a response message containing a redirect code will be received.
The next step is to configure call forwarding from the old number. To carry out this operation, you must have the previous SIM card with you. From the old number, enter the following request: ** 21 * <forwarding code received in the message> #. As mentioned earlier, the service is completely free and allows you to connect no more than three numbers of any operators. Thus, when calling your number, a person will hear how you can reach you.
Is it possible to become a Tele2 subscriber by saving the number of another operator?
Many customers of mobile operators are thinking about switching to Tele2. Change of operator with saving the number is possible. How can this procedure be carried out? You can start using the “Tele2” services by storing the number by visiting the communication salon, presenting the identification card of the owner of the number or using the service posted on the official website of the mobile operator. Through this service, it is necessary to fill out an application for the transition, indicating the number that should be saved and other required data.
After receiving your application, operator support staff will contact you and suggest further actions. For a personal visit to the company’s office, the applicant will need to formulate a standard form statement to transfer the number of another telecom operator. The procedure for transferring the number can take from eight days or more. In each case, the period is determined individually. It is also necessary to pay off all debts that are owed to the current telecom operator. The presence of unpaid charges may slow down the receipt of a new SIM card. After the transfer of the number from one operator to another is completed, the client will receive a notification in the form of a text message. All that a subscriber needs to do is drive up to the office and pick up a new SIM card of Tele2 operator with the same number.
Conclusion
Tele2 phone number change is carried out through the employees of the communication salon. Regardless of which number will be selected - from the pool of regular numbers or “beautiful” - the subscriber will be able to take the one that will be more attractive to him. The purchase of a new number at the expense of credit is impossible. You need to replenish the balance at your own expense and visit the office of the company. About when the number will be changed, it is worth checking with the specialist who will serve you. As a rule, this will not take more than half an hour. If it will be necessary to switch from another operator to Tele2, having saved the current number, then you will have to wait a little longer - from eight days or more.
