Many mobile phone users complain that large amounts are written off from the phone, that they receive annoying unnecessary advertising, that operators constantly connect unnecessary services to them, which also begin to deduct funds if they are not disconnected in time (music instead of beeps, weather, etc.).
But very few people know that all these problems can be easily and quickly fixed.
It is enough to call the subscription service (it is better to do it directly from a mobile phone) and ask to include several free services.
MTS
We call from a mobile phone to 0890.
We ask you to check whether any paid services are connected, and if they are connected, please disconnect everything.
Please activate the services:
“Prohibition of content”(prohibition of calls and SMS to short toll numbers)
“Prohibition of receiving informational SMS and SMS / MMS from the MTS website” (prohibition of advertising)
“Prohibition of receiving SMS with MTS news” (prohibition of advertising)
Beeline
We call from a mobile phone to 0611
Please check if any paid services are connected, and if they are connected, please disconnect everything.
We ask you to activate the services:
“Black and white lists” (barring calls and SMS to short toll numbers)
“Blocking“ Mobile advertising ”(banning ads)
” Banning promotions “(banning connecting free services, which then become paid)
Megaphone
We call from a mobile phone number 0500
Please check if any paid services are connected, and if they are connected, please disconnect everything.
Please connect the services:
“Stop content” (blocking the sending of SMS to paid numbers).
“Refusal from SMS mailings” (prohibition of advertising)
“Refusal from“ Try & buy ”” (prohibition of connecting free services, which then become paid)
It must be understood that all these services will not save 100% from all types of advertising, imposed services and mobile fraud , but still I think that the actions described above should be done by everyone, and this is especially important on the phones used by children.
Subscriber service numbers and service names are for Moscow. Most likely in the regions the same.
upd: It turns out that there was already a post on Habra banning SMS and calls to short numbers: habrahabr.ru/post/134369 It describes in detail what each of these services does for each operator, and also describes similar services of operators in the regions.
