Forgetting the number of a SIM card that has not been used for a while is quite simple. This often happens with Tele2 customers and subscribers of other mobile operators. In order to remember which number was purchased some time ago, it is enough to find the documentation that was issued when you purchased the kit in the communication salon. But what if the papers are lost? Is there a special USSD-command "Tele2"? Is it possible to find out your number in this case?
Possible recovery options
- View documentation. When buying a SIM card, a number of documents are issued to the owner. They have information about which Tele2 team allows you to find out your number.
- A call to another phone, preferably mobile or landline, with the function of a caller ID.
- It is possible to find out the Tele2 phone number through your gadget (the command you will need to dial will be given below). Information about the number will be sent to the subscriber in the form of a text message.
- Call the contact center operator and ask for a number.
Let's take a closer look at each of these options in more detail.
Call another phone
Subscribers are not always aware of such a banal way of checking their number. Of course, it may be that the second device, which can be called, is not at hand at the moment. In this case, you should use other methods of clarifying information. This option may not work if the “Anti-Caller ID” service is activated on the SIM card. Then, when calling from an "unknown" SIM card, it will be impossible to correctly determine the number.
Short request from a sim card
If the SIM card is active, then by inserting it into a mobile device, you can quickly find out its number. For this, a special Tele2 team must be dialed. You can find out your number if you enter the request * 201 #. In response, information about the subscriber number will be received. At the same time, it is important that the SIM card is valid, that is, when installing in the slot of a mobile gadget, the Tele2 network should be displayed on the display. Otherwise, the execution of this and any other command will be impossible, as, in principle, the use of communication services.
Call the operator at the contact center
Not always for specification of number USSD-command "Tele2" can be entered. You can find out your number through an employee of the contact center. Having called from the SIM card, on which there is a question, to the call center using the single toll-free number 611, you should ask the employee to dictate the number from which the call was made. It is impossible to surprise a Tele2 employee with such a question, because many “forgetful” subscribers regularly deal with this problem. The specialist will prompt the number or offer to record the USSD-request, with the help of which the subscriber can verify the number.
Recovering information about the number in the event that the SIM card is not detected in the device
If the SIM card has not been used for a long time, then it could very well be blocked at the initiative of the Tele2 operator due to the lack of paid actions on the number. In this case, to find out the number of such a SIM card, you will have to go to the operator’s office. By presenting a passport to the department employee, you can request information about the numbers that are registered on the current client. After the SIM card has been blocked for a sufficiently long time, there is a risk that the information will not be provided. By the way, in the same way it will be necessary to act in a situation where the SIM card is damaged and it is not possible to use it on a smartphone or tablet. Having visited the salon of communication with an identification card, the owner of the number can not only find out the number, but also receive a new one in return for the damaged SIM card.
Useful Commands
There are also a number of useful USSD requests that may be of interest to Tele2 subscribers (command to find out if the number is paid, to clarify the conditions for using the tariff, etc.).
You can get full access to the menu for managing your number by dialing * 111 #. Through this service, you can clarify any information about your number and other services that the Tele2 operator provides. There are also a number of separate USSD requests that will help clarify some information about your number to the subscriber, for example:
- * 107 # - information about the tariff plan;
- * 153 # - information about options connected on the SIM card;
- * 125 # - a command to clarify the cost of sending a text message or making a call to a short number (in order to see how much it costs one SMS or a minute to call a specific short number, you need to dial the combination * 125 * NNNN #, a notification about name of content provider and cost).
