Yota receives code 999 and becomes the fourth federal operator

Mobile communications in the Russian Federation are supported by several different operators. They all try to offer users the most favorable rates. Often people change phone numbers to become a subscriber of another operator. To make it easier for people to understand who they were calling - a user of one network or another - telephone numbers were separated by special codes. Keep in mind that it is impossible to quickly identify Iota. You will receive detailed information on the official website. Iota phone numbers begin with the numbers of the region in which the service agreement was concluded.

All operator codes

To begin with, we will give you all the current Yota operator codes. These are 956, 958, 991, 995, 996 and 999 (may not belong entirely to one operator). The last two codes have the largest number capacity. The rest gain a total of about 2.5-3%. There is no clear distribution by region; each region is allocated a certain segment of numbers. And if we know that the numbers 916ХХХХХХХ hide the MTS phones of Moscow and Moscow Region, then with Yota everything is more complicated.
The largest number of numbers belonging to the Yota network are in St. Petersburg and the Leningrad region. There are about 1.3 million of them here, which is enough for all local residents and guests of the Northern capital. The overwhelming number is with the prefix 999. For example, +7-999-534-XXXX is a typical pool for St. Petersburg. This also includes the ranges +7-999-530-9XXX, +7-999-669-XXXX, +7-999-222-XXXX, +7-958-537-2XXX and many others.

At the other end of the country, in the Primorsky Territory, the following Yota number codes are found - 996 and 999. Please note that the prefix 999 is found in many regions, for example, in the Krasnodar Territory. Typical Iota number ranges for the Primorsky Territory are +7-999-040-XXXX, +7-999-615-XXXX, +7-966-426-XXXX and many others.

How do Iota numbers begin?

The Iota number on your phone can start with only 6 different combinations of numbers. But there is no strict connection of the code to this cellular provider and territorial zone.

ETA number codes can have the following meanings:

• 956;
• 958;
• 991;
• 995;
• 996;
• 999.

None of these numeric prefixes are exclusively assigned to Eta. All of them can be used simultaneously by a large number of operators. The code 996 is more common than all other number combinations in Iota. The phones of almost 13 million subscribers begin with it.

The second place goes to code 999. It is used by over 10 million people who have connected to this mobile network. Moreover, respectively, 25% and 50% of the total number of numbers starting with the specified numbers are covered by other providers. Less often than all other codes in the Yota company, the combination 956 is used. Only 2 thousand phones begin with these numbers.

Blocked due to unsuccessful PIN entry

By default, the Yota operator has PIN code verification disabled. But you can enable this option independently in the phone settings if you are afraid of attempts of unauthorized access to it. All cards of this company have a regular pin installed - But each user is also free to change this combination independently.

Access to the SIM card is blocked after the third incorrect entry of the PIN code.

In this case, you can unlock the Yota SIM card using the PUK code. As a rule, it is indicated on the envelope with the SIM card or on the card itself. If the envelope is lost, the operator's support service will help you return the secret combination.

Where can I see the full list of operator numbers?

If you already know how the yota number begins, then you will not have any difficulties identifying the network of the calling phone. Please note that in some cases the area code may not correspond to reality. This usually happens on residual numbers, when the provider needs to close the series as soon as possible. To avoid getting into trouble, remember the following features:

• 916 - may be a Beeline subscriber from the Moscow region.
• 928 – telephone numbers of both Yota and Beeline.
• 999 – not only Yota, but also the Omsk division of MTS.
