What is Iziquir 2779?
A paid service for Beeline subscribers is provided by the partner organization of the same name - Easykvair LLC. The company operates not only in the Republic of Vietnam, but also in Azerbaijan and Kazakhstan. When connected, tens of rubles are debited from the subscriber every day. In a month of such a service, about a thousand can “float away” from the account. What exactly the subscriber receives after subscribing is vaguely worded “infotainment services.”
After walking around Beeline’s partner’s website a little, you can find out that Izikvair is engaged in the following activities:
- working with SMS notification platforms;
- mobile content aggregation;
- development and implementation of Internet projects and portals;
- call center support;
- management of micropayment systems;
- implementation of services running on LBS technology.
Of all of the above, subscribers receive daily newsletters on their phones. Plus, they are given access to sites that contain unique articles. To visit the resources, the user is required to have a login and password.
legislation
Is there any basis for such claims, strictly speaking? After all, at some point the user voluntarily performed some action that ensured his place as a victim in the chain (relative to the short number 2779). This is precisely the position that telecom operators adhere to when a subscriber, outraged by the loss of money, begins to search for the truth.
The answer is yes, there is
And this is called the federal law of July 23, 2013 N 229-FZ “On Amendments to the Federal Law “On Communications”.
In it, Article 2 of the Basic Law is supplemented with subclause 34.1, which defines what “content services” are.
The legislator made this definition as general as possible, practically fitting into it everything that is not the actual connection. Those. if the user using the phone and through the telecom operator’s channels receives, quote,
...reference, entertainment and (or) other additionally paid information...", gets the opportunity "... to participate in voting, games, competitions and similar events...,
Then he, the user, receives a content service. And it, in turn, being provided with the participation of third parties, falls under the addition of paragraph 5 of Article 44 of the Federal Law “On Communications”, which prescribes a mechanism for protecting the consumer by:
- firstly, the possibility of creating, at his request, a separate account to pay only for content services;
- secondly, the requirement to obtain explicit consent to receive such services;
- thirdly, about comprehensive information, including prices and names of suppliers, about these services before obtaining consent.
Another addition, established by 229-FZ, to paragraph 5 of Article 54 of the Basic Law, states that services provided in violation of any of the above are not subject to payment. And finally, Article 68 of the main communications law is supplemented by paragraph 8, which directly indicates the operator’s responsibility for the implementation of Article 44 (see above).
Let’s summarize the legislative information, projecting the rights and responsibilities spelled out in it onto the practical side of life.
If the user consciously wants to become a consumer of content services, then you can secure your account for paying for communications by declaring your intention to open a separate content account to cover the costs of mobile subscriptions and SMS from short numbers. If it is exhausted, funds intended for regular conversations and SMS will not be affected.
For telecom operators Beeline and TELE2, this action is automated and is carried out by sending a USSD request, *110*5062# and *160#, respectively. Sets of commands are also provided for replenishment and checking the balance.
Megafon and MTS require a personal appearance at the office and presentation of a passport, and one must understand that regardless of the method of expression of will, the very fact of opening an account confirms voluntary consent to receive content services, and strictly speaking makes it unnecessary to inform about the details (in including price) of the same mobile subscription.
How does Iziquir 2779 connect?
You can become a subscriber to the service in one of 2 ways (through clicking on an advertisement or due to a virus). Typically, its activation occurs due to the negligence of the subscriber himself. No personal information is required from the phone owner. Just click on the advertising banner. Such a transition means automatic acceptance of the offer and the client receives a message that he has connected to the Iziquir service.
Another way to activate an Isikvar subscription is to infect your smartphone with a virus. There is malicious software that imitates the behavior of a real user on the Internet. Its goal is to navigate to certain sites, artificially creating activity on them in this way.
Subscription reviews
Number 2779, thanks to the mythical subscription from Izikvair LLC, collects mostly negative reviews. And there are a number of reasons for this - automatic registration of the option in secret from the subscriber, a serious daily fee, a strange set of offered content. As some commentators suggest, a subscription could bring at least a little pleasant experience if the money transferred to the operator provided interesting information and video materials, and not yellowish articles from regional newspapers.
