How to check the balance of another MTS subscriber from your phone

To track the balance of a mobile number, just use your personal account or mobile application. The exact amount will be indicated there, as well as the amount of remaining Internet and activated packages. But what if you need to obtain similar information for another person? For example, a close relative, child or wife. In this case, you need to use a special option provided by most telecom operators. And you don’t have to look for anything yourself, because we will tell you in detail how to find out the subscriber’s balance on another phone.

Ways to check another subscriber's cash account

First of all, you should understand that if you want to exercise control over the money account of another subscriber, he must also be a user of the MTS mobile operator. MTS does not provide for checking accounts of other mobile operators.

You should also understand that such a check of the money account can only be carried out with the closest relatives. This is due to the fact that as soon as you wish to connect such a service, you will need to obtain their consent and confirm this on your mobile device. This number may not work with friends.

Among the possible ways to check the money account of another subscriber, we can highlight:

• ;
• .

Each of these methods has its own advantages and is very often used to check the money accounts of people close to you.

Checking your cash account using

This service provides the opportunity to check your money account on another phone. This could be your close relatives or your closest friends. In order to get such a unique opportunity, you need to activate this service, but when activating it, you must obtain the consent of the subscriber to whom you are connecting it. This service is completely free and can be installed on any tariff plan. Unfortunately, it is not available for corporate clients.

In order to connect this service to your own phone, you need to send a USSD command from your own mobile device: * 111 * 2337 #. After that, press the key responsible for the call. You can also send a short message to number 111, indicating the text “2137”. After this, such a service will be connected to you automatically. Or, if one of the methods does not work out for you, you can call 111 and completely follow all the instructions from the autoinformer.

However, you need to understand that users of some tariffs do not need to connect to this service, since it is already included in the standard package. Such tariff plans of the mobile operator MTS are “Mayak” and “Cool”. Due to the fact that this service is completely free, you can check your money account anytime, anywhere.

After this service is activated, you can proceed to checking the other subscriber’s cash account. In order to carry out this process, you need to send a USSD command from your own mobile device: * 140 * xxxxxxxxxxxxx #. After that, press the key responsible for the call. Instead of хххххххххх you need to dial the number of the subscriber whose balance you want to know. After sending this request, a short text message should be sent to your mobile phone, which will display the current cash account at the moment. During the verification process, do not forget that you only need to enter the phone number for which you installed this service.

Checking your cash account using

This service is another fairly simple way that makes it possible to check the money account on the number of another subscriber. The only difference with this one is that it must be connected directly to the mobile device on which the check will be carried out. Essentially, your loved one or friend should allow you to find out such information on their own. And after the service is connected, you will have the opportunity to view your friend’s personal account.

First of all, before connecting to this service, you should understand that it is not available for use on all existing tariffs. This service can only be installed for users of the Mayak plan. At the same time, such a service only works with a number of installed . These are the limitations of this particular service.

In order to connect it to the mobile device of a person whose balance will be controlled, you should send a USSD command from his mobile device: * 111 * 422 #. After that, press the key responsible for the call. After sending this request, the service is automatically connected. The only thing is that you must immediately enter the number of the other subscriber who will exercise control over the money account. Moreover, there may be several such people. Therefore, you can enter several numbers at once. In order to deposit them, you should dial the combination * 111 * 422 # on your device. Then you need to press the key responsible for the call. Then you must follow all the directions that are suggested in the instructions. When entering numbers, you can enter no more than ten numbers. However, you cannot enter the user number that belongs to the corporate plan.

In order to check a friend’s balance from your own mobile device, you should dial the combination * 140 * xxxxxxxxxxxxx #. After that, press the key responsible for the call. In response, you will receive a short text message containing information about your close friend's current account. In this case, the verification is carried out completely free of charge. At any time, you have the opportunity to disable such services as unnecessary without additional payment.

We don’t “peek through the keyhole.” We are talking about legal services for monitoring someone else’s balance, subject to the mandatory consent of the person being controlled. Are such capabilities needed, who exactly needs them and how they are implemented by different operators.

Lyrics

The universal term “Privacy” stands for, among other things, “Protection of Confidential Information”. Data about the state of the user’s personal account is, of course, such information and can be used to his detriment. And even if they are not used, the difference is not fundamental. Why on earth should “someone else’s uncle” (or “aunt”) know about the current state of my balance? What if I, for example, want to use it while having a lot of money in my account? You never know what situations there are in which it is extremely undesirable to inform another about the state of your balance.

Operators are required to be sensitive to the personal information of their clients. And in most cases this is exactly how they are treated. There are concepts of “number owner” and “number user”; this is not always the same person. Details of conversations, information about payments, expenses and current balance at the operator’s office can only be obtained by the owner of the number, and this information must be given to him in any case. This is something jealous husbands/wives readily take advantage of when they present their spouse with a SIM card issued in their name. Some employers also do not hesitate to view detailed reports of their employees, by the way. Through self-service systems, everything happens much easier; a curious person just needs to get a phone with a SIM card for a couple of minutes and set a password to enter his personal account. However, the “control levers” in any case remain in the hands of the person to whom the number is registered: as a last resort, you can set a code word (in MTS), and then your passport data will not be enough to receive information by calling the contact center. And self-service systems can be turned off altogether, and then only the owner of the room at the service office will be able to extract information from the billing.

The exact opposite situation occurs no less often. Elderly people, addicted children and simply careless relatives who cannot or do not want to monitor the state of their accounts. The credit form of payment (postpayment) solves the problem, but the ability to spend on credit often leads to a significant increase in expenses. In such cases, monitoring someone else’s balance is useful and even necessary, which is why services like “Balance of Loved Ones” are being implemented. Operators are interested in such control mechanisms, since a zeroed balance does not bring them money, and the service encourages them to top up their account and spend more.

Beeline: “Balance of loved ones”

We read relatively recent news, a detailed description of the service on the Beeline website -. A few important quotes:

“You will always know when it’s time to top up your loved one’s account: Beeline will notify you that the balance has been reduced to 60 rubles via SMS, or you yourself can make a request about its current status. Only a Beeline subscriber can make a request about the current balance status of a loved one.

Please note that subscribers of any mobile operator in Russia, users of any payment system, individuals and legal entities can find out the status of your balance. No more than 3 subscribers can find out your balance. The service is provided both in the home zone and in intranet roaming.

Activation of the service is available to individuals and legal entities - subscribers of the Beeline prepaid payment system. By adding another person’s phone number, the subscriber agrees to provide such person with information about the balance of his personal account through automatic SMS notifications or a response SMS to a one-time request.”

The main service management commands are shown in the screenshot above. Key features of the service:

• You can find out the balance of another subscriber only with his consent; the service can be easily disabled using the USSD command.
• Two main modes: automatic and on demand. In automatic mode, the controller receives an SMS message when the controlled balance reaches 60 rubles. In addition to the automatic notification mode, there is a scheme for one-time SMS requests for the controlled balance, but only Beeline subscribers can send such requests. USS requests are not charged; the response comes in an SMS message.
• In automatic mode (SMS threshold notifications), the service works with subscribers of any networks, this is an important plus of the Beeline version.
• The service itself is free, but when connecting a monitoring number, 5 rubles are debited at a time. You can connect no more than three control numbers.

The scheme, in my opinion, is implemented almost optimally. The only thing we can complain about is the impossibility of setting an arbitrary SMS notification threshold. It's no secret that kids tend to use content services thoughtlessly, and keeping the balance at a low level is, albeit incomplete, at least some kind of insurance against stupid spending.

MTS: “Other subscriber’s balance”

You can read the description of the service. Initially, the service was valid only for subscribers of the “Cool” tariff plan, but then the service was made available to subscribers of other tariff plans. At Klassny, the service is included in the starter package, and the SIM card user cannot disable it on his own, which is quite logical: the tariff is designed specifically for children.

The “Other Subscriber’s Balance” service does not provide automatic notifications when the threshold balance value has been reached. Information is provided only in response to the request *140 *#. The service must be activated (free of charge), requests are not charged, there is no subscription fee. The response to the request comes in the form of an SMS message. A quote from the description can open access to information about your balance for your “favorite” numbers. Using the “Other Subscriber’s Balance” service, your friends and family will be able to check the status of your personal account at any time and, if necessary, top it up. To do this you need to connect.

Some financial inconvenience is that it is impossible to set an arbitrary number as a “controlling” number; this number must be a “favorite”. So, despite all the declared free service, spend 35 rubles. You will have to pay for connecting your “favorite number” in any case. On most non-archive tariffs there is no monthly fee for two favorite numbers, but there are exceptions. For example, on the “Caring” tariff there are three free “favorite” ones, and on the “Guest” and “Regional” tariffs the monthly fee for each “favorite number” is 33 rubles/month. On the “Many calls” tariff, there are two “favorite numbers” without a subscriber, but calls to these numbers are counted in a separate battery, which can lead to additional costs. By the way, it wouldn’t hurt to correct the description on the site, otherwise all links to the terms and conditions of different tariffs lead to the popular “Error 404” page.

I also didn’t really like the fact that when connected, the owners of all “favorite numbers” can request a balance; this is not entirely correct. According to the girl from the contact center, it is technically impossible to leave the service activated for only one “favorite number”.

The capital's MegaFon does not yet (?) provide such a service. The girl from the contact center advised me to register the number in my name and call the CC to find out the balance. Of course, the Mobile Balance program will cope with this task no worse, so if you have a computer, the value of such services is only in efficiency and mobility.

MTS users need to track not only their personal mobile account, but also the status of other subscribers. For example, your loved ones and family members. For such purposes, the provider has implemented special options that allow the client to monitor the characteristics of contracts of other consumers, except themselves, at any time and in any place. This review contains all the ways to find out the balance of another MTS subscriber.

Friend Balance Option

First, you should familiarize yourself with all the restrictions, including:

1. The services are valid only for MTS consumers. You will not be able to monitor the numbers of other operators.
2. It should be understood that in order to verify the account of another specific person, his full consent to provide personal data is required. Basically, such applications are installed on SIM cards of close relatives or friends.

Now let's look at a striking example -. It is provided completely free of charge and is connected to the Mayak contract and is compatible with the “Other subscriber’s balance” option. Both of these applications are included by default in the starter kit of the previously mentioned tariff.

To activate this service on your phone, use one of the following methods:

1. Visit an MTS communication salon and take your passport with you. Ask a free seller or manager to solve your problem, order the desired option. If necessary, you can switch to the required tariff plan.
2. Specialists on the technical support line for subscribers - 0890 will help you complete the installation procedure. They will listen to you, advise you and launch the option remotely at any time.
3. In your personal account you can control all possible applications and functions of your contract. To do this, you will need to register and initialize a new client account. Enter your contact phone number and set a security authorization password. Once in the main menu of the service, you will see all the basic information about your balance and tariff characteristics. Go to the “services” section and activate it.
4. Install the My MTS program. In its essence and functionality, it is not inferior to a personal account. The principle of connecting subscriptions and services is almost the same.
5. Enter a simple USSD encoding in the calling menu - *111*422#, you will receive a corresponding notification confirming the procedure.

Let's look at how the option works. To check the balance of a specific subscriber, you must add your phone number on his device to the admission list by dialing the combination *111*422#. The list size can be up to ten people who have any tariff plans activated except for corporate offers.

Attention! All manipulations - adding and changing the list are not charged, completely free.

As soon as there is agreement between the subscribers and their devices are synchronized, you can safely check the balance. To do this, dial USSD request - *140*client phone number # and make a call. All the necessary information will appear on your display.

MTS

There are three options in total.
Each differs in the verification method and cost. Although, two of the available checks do not charge a fee for use. Let's consider what options will allow you to find out the necessary information regarding the balance of another person, and how to use them. For example, the offer – Balance of another subscriber – is popular among clients of the presented operator. To perform a check using this option you must:

1. Call 111 and follow the instructions from the system, which will sound an answering machine.
2. The next option involves sending an SMS. Just send the special code “2137” to 111.
3. You can also send the USSD code – *111*2337*1#. After which the system will display the necessary information.

If you have activated the “Mayak” or “Cool” tariff offer, then you do not need to activate the presented option. The service in question is standard, that is, it is already included in the package of these plans.

The option is completely free. To find out the balance of another MTS subscriber, you need to send a special USSD command - *140*99999999999(number of the desired user)#.

To disable the option, use:

• Personal profile on the website or application. Just go to the active services section and deactivate it.
• USSD combination – *111*2337#.

Option “Other subscriber’s balance”

This function is provided completely free of charge and works perfectly on all current MTS operator tariff plans. On some contracts it is installed by default. In other cases, it must be activated manually using the following methods:

Disabling is carried out in the same order as activation. Or send an SMS with the message “21370” to “111”.

To find out the current balance status of a particular person, you should enter the combination - *140*subscriber's phone number #. You can save this command in the standard way to your contacts library so that you don’t have to enter it again later. An important condition is that the user must give you his consent to verify personal information. To do this, he must add your phone number to the list of favorite numbers.

Set up the Favorite number service in advance. There is a subscription fee for it, which directly depends on the number of added contacts. If there is one, then the price will be 1.5 rubles per day. For each new subscriber you will have to pay 25 rubles. In addition, owners of this option have a 50% discount on communication and correspondence with users from the list. To activate, you will need to dial the code *111*42#. Next, follow the instructions on the display to complete the list.

Attention! The cost corresponds to the Moscow region and Moscow.

How to connect?

There are several ways to connect:

• Via SMS.
• By calling.
• Through a request.

You can send an SMS with the code 2137 to the number 111. In response, you should receive a message about the successful activation of the service. The notification arrives within 1-2 minutes.

It is suggested to call 111 and follow the system prompts. The robot will help you find the required menu item and activate the service.

The fastest way is to dial *111*2337#. In response, you should receive a notification about the activation of the service. The entire procedure will take no more than one minute for the subscriber.

For caring and responsible parents, a special service has been implemented that allows you to manage the characteristics of your child’s SIM card, check the balance and determine the location on the map in real time from another phone. With its help, you will always know where your child is.

To activate the option, you need to write a text message “MOM”, “DAD” to the short phone number “7788”. Then register your child's phone number in the system. To do this, type the letter “Child-name-telephone”. For example, “Child Sergey 89122223344” and send it to “7788”. The function provides a fixed subscription fee of 100 rubles per billing period. You can view all the necessary information using SMS messaging, through the provider’s official website, as well as through the mobile application, but first you will need to register on the “mpoisk.ru” resource. Here you will receive additional advice.

Child under supervision

“Child under control” is a special service offered by the operator. By activating the presented offer, you will always be able to control your child’s mobile account. The service provides complete information not only about the balance of money, but also about its location. This way the parent can always be calm.

To connect, use the available methods:

To find out the location of the child, send an SMS to number 7788 with the following content: “Where is Ivan.”

You won’t be able to find out how much money is on someone else’s number this way. The service will display the necessary information only for those subscribers that have been added to the list. For complete control, it is recommended to go to the official website - MTS Search. The map will show the location of all phones and their balance.

Find out your balance using apps

Now users can control their own and others’ balances using third-party applications. Today there are a significant number of them and not all of them are free. You can track information through your desktop computer by installing the Mobile Balance software. This software carries out intermediate requests via the Internet and displays the characteristics on the screen. The free trial version allows you to monitor up to five mobile devices at once.

Thanks to the unlimited possibilities of the modern MTS operator, you can see the balance not only on your SIM card, but also on the account of another subscriber. How is this even possible?

Everything is extremely simple, because there is such a thing.

There is some condition - the service is relevant only for users of the Mayak TP. We will now get acquainted with the features of provision and specific restrictions

What kind of tariff plan is MTS Mayak?

TPs are classified as being provided for the following devices:

1. smartphones, tablets and various modifications of modems;
2. for so-called smart devices;
3. for telematic services.

The Mayak tariff plan, which is not particularly popular, is attached to the last line of the list. The fact is that the main guidelines here are placed only on the possibilities of making CSD calls and sending simple faxes.

Not all active MTS subscribers will answer for what purpose these functions are used. As a rule, this tariff is inherent in the use of navigation devices. The special tariff plan “Mayak” is designed only for the above types of communications.

Here you will not find service packages or subscription fees - all calls and sending are carried out only within the following prices: a call to a local number costs 1.5 rubles per minute, to numbers of other significance (non-local) 3 rubles per minute, to numbers of all-Russian value - at 5 rubles per minute.

Regarding other phone calls, get ready - 14 rubles per minute. For each MB of high-speed Internet you will have to pay 4.5 rubles.

To benefit from SMS sending, it is better to turn to the SMS packages that are present here. But, if you had to send SMS suddenly, then for each of them you pay 1.5 rubles per piece.

For regional numbers - 3.8 rubles per piece, worldwide without borders - 5.25 rubles. For MMS, the fixing rate is 9.9 rubles.

How to find out how much money another MTS subscriber has in his account

To perform this action, you need to wave your magic wand - call the help desk, voice the letters and numbers to identify the number and receive the required information in return.

If the phone number belongs specifically to you, then there is a call for you at 0890

, which makes it easy to find out the balance of your number, which is not with you. You can also use the Internet to scout out such information.

To make this possible, you need to obtain an access password from another MTS subscriber whose balance we are checking.

For example, you gave a phone to your old dad, who doesn’t understand anything about these combinations.

In this case, simply send the password to his phone and receive balance data through his personal account.

Conditions for receiving balance data through the “ Friend’s Balance”

»:

1. the phone numbers of interest refer to the “Mayak” tariff;
2. other subscribers are on completely different tariffs;

5. the list of subscribers checking the balance should not exceed 10 people.
