In this case, you must have a passport, because the operator will ask for your data and full name to make sure that you are really its owner before deactivating it. While outside your country, you can still perform this action by calling the operator in international roaming at +7 495 766 0166.
All calls are free from any world state. If the card is lost or stolen, you have no other option but to call the toll-free line 8 800 250 0890 from another number.

It is now quite common for operators to use the so-called automatic block on SIM. This is necessary after three unsuccessful attempts to enter the PIN. And after that, now to unlock a SIM card, you first, as a rule, need to enter the PUK code combination provided by the operator when purchasing the card. If you find yourself in a situation where you do not have the PUK code to unlock your MTS SIM card with you, just call the operator at 0890 or 8-800-250-0890 .
The service in the salon is no different from the above method of unlocking a SIM card. Also here you will need the passport for which the card is issued.
Unintentional SIM card blocking also happens. In this case, voluntary blocking of the account is activated. In the first two weeks, you are not charged for using the service, but after three weeks, one ruble is debited from your account every day. Please note that it is necessary to remove the blocking as quickly as possible, because the funds may go into the negative.

After you have removed the blocking, all your parameters, card settings, such as tariff, services and services, as well as the balance will remain on your account. There is a drawback here: it will no longer be possible to save new numbers on the new card. However, modern technologies have reached the point where large amounts of internal memory and the synchronization procedure with all kinds of Internet services will allow you to save all the contacts collected over a long time.

Depending on the tariff plan, the start time for deactivation can vary from 60 to 183 days.

The operators themselves resort to such measures if there is a large debt on the number’s personal account. Cards are also blocked in case of a long trip, when there are no plans to use it for some time, and when they want to change the operator.

Temporary SIM card blocking

This is relevant, for example, for those subscribers who decide to choose another mobile operator. Who knows, maybe you don’t like the terms of service or need an MTS SIM card. In this case, it is better to temporarily stop using the card by deactivating it. For this purpose, there is a special service from the operator called “Voluntary blocking”. By activating the service, you will block the SIM card for any (temporary) period. The blocking time is determined by the user. If you need the number earlier, you will also quickly remove it.
By activating voluntary blocking, you block access to any operator services and can only dial 112 in case of emergency. But, at the same time, if you deactivated the SIM card, for example, for a period of 3 months, and you needed it after 30 days, you can also simply remove the ban and activate calls, SMS messages, and Internet access. That is, the blocking period can be revised at any time if the need arises.

When you purchase a new SIM card, special keys for activation are supplied with it in the starter kit, usually they are written on the packaging - PIN and PUK. The first is required to protect personal data and only three attempts are allowed to enter it. If it does not work, then automatic blocking occurs. To withdraw, you must enter PUK. This time, 10 attempts are given, after which the SIM completely fails and there is no way to restore it, you can only get a duplicate.
If you forgot your PUK, follow the recommendations:
- The code is indicated on the packaging of the equipment.
- The sequence of numbers is unique; it is implemented for one SIM card. Information about it is in the provider's database. To find out, contact any company service salon and ask an employee to dictate the required numbers. The procedure is not available without a passport.
- Request the necessary information by calling the technical support number “0890”. The data is confidential and you will be asked to confirm your identity.
After receiving the code, try to write it down and keep it in a safe place.
Attention! We do not recommend typing a combination at random; nothing will come of it.
How to block an MTS SIM card forever
It is better to block the SIM card of a stolen/lost smartphone without the right of recovery.
This step is also taken by subscribers who decide to refuse the services of MTS. Permanent blocking is possible using several options. Choose your method and refuse the communication services of this operator: This is how MTS SIM cards are blocked temporarily or forever. Choose a method based on your situation.
Voluntary blocking of MTS is an opportunity that the cellular operator has provided to all its customers. If a person does not plan to use the number at all or decides to temporarily refuse communication services, you can do this without any problems. The main thing is to know exactly how. There are several options for the development of events. What should you pay attention to first? How can I enable and disable the service being studied?
Peculiarities
The main feature of the option, which was already mentioned above, are exceptions that allow you to recognize the number even after connecting the service. Caller ID does not work:
- when making emergency calls;
- when sending SMS and mms messages;
- when using voicemail and sending audio recordings;
- when using the “Dial” function;
- during calls to a landline, if the interlocutor’s phone has a caller ID function.
In addition, subscribers are able to independently indicate interlocutors during communication with whom the service is suspended. A special command *31#xxx is provided for this. Instead of xxx, indicate the telephone number of the interlocutor in international format.
In addition, users have the opportunity to hide their identity without connecting to the described service. To do this, dial #31#xxx and press the call key.

Ban on withdrawal
The first thing you need to pay attention to is unlocking. After all, it is no less important than connecting the service being studied. All clients who use the function sooner or later ask about how to remove the voluntary blocking of MTS. And here they may not have the best answer.
The thing is that unlocking is not always possible. It all depends on which block was set by the subscriber. A temporary one allows you to restore the functionality of the SIM card, but a permanent one does not. Therefore, when using (MTS), you should pay attention to what type of block will be installed.
Price
Before you enable an attractive option, you need to understand the cost of activating the use of the function. In the case considered, there is no unified approach to pricing policy. The price of anonymity depends on the tariff plan installed on the user’s SIM card. Therefore, the cost of connection should be specified separately. The easiest way to understand the prices is to call the already mentioned contact center and consult with the hotline staff. Consultations are provided free of charge, and therefore there will be no problems with finding and receiving information.
Personal Area
However, customers indicate that the feature being studied has multiple ways to enable and disable it. For example, you can use the “Personal Account” on the mobile operator’s website. How to remove the voluntary blocking of MTS or enable it?
You must first visit the website mts.ru, then log in to your “Personal Account” there. Next, it is recommended to visit the Internet assistant. The services have a “Block number” function. If you click on this line and follow the instructions (namely, select the appropriate option - whether you have access to the SIM card or not), you will be able to block the number.
How to disable voluntary blocking on MTS? To do this, you will again need a “Personal Account” and an Internet assistant. If the SIM card was previously blocked, the “Unlock” line will now appear in the services. Accordingly, its use will help restore the functionality of the number.
Working with the service
Let's see how to block a subscriber's number on MTS and what is needed for this. First you need to connect. This is done through the “Personal Account” or the USSD command *111*442#. If you need to disable the service, dial *111*442*2# or look at the control panel of your number.
Now let's look at how to block a subscriber on MTS - to do this, dial the USSD command *442# and follow the network prompts. You can also send an SMS with the text “22*number” (without quotes) to service number 4424. In the latter case, the hang-up type indicating the subscriber’s unavailability will be automatically selected. The easiest way to block an unwanted subscriber is through the website https://bl.mts.ru/.
Let's look at how to block SMS from an MTS subscriber - to do this you need to connect. After this, we block the numbers according to the above instructions. If you are going to block an alpha numeric (short alphanumeric number), do not pay attention to the case of the characters entered - you can block this subscriber with any type of spelling.
Now you know how to block a particular subscriber on MTS. If you want to block SMS, dial the USSD command *111*2320# or look at your “Personal Account” - this will enable “SMS Pro”. Please note that sending messages to 4424 is free only when you are on your home network. You can find a complete list of available commands, about three dozen of them, on the operator’s official website.
There are times in life when you urgently need to block an MTS SIM card. It is important that instructions on how to do this are always at your fingertips.
Team
Voluntary blocking of MTS can be activated using the USSD command. It should be noted right away: you will not be able to unblock the number this way. Therefore, USSD requests are relevant only for connecting to the service.
What will need to be done? Dial *111*157# on your mobile phone. Next, click on the “Call” button on your phone and wait until the request is processed. After a few seconds, the voluntary blocking of MTS will be activated. The first 2 weeks the service is absolutely free. Starting from the 15th day you will have to pay 1 ruble for every 24 hours of using the opportunity.
Customers indicate that it is the USSD request that is in greatest demand. This technique allows you to independently and at any time use the number blocking function. Only the studied combination is suitable for temporarily disabling a SIM card. This means that it will be possible to restore the SIM card when it is needed.
Other ways to connect to the service
If a subscriber is not registered in his personal account or has forgotten his password, setting up a voluntary block via the Internet for him is impossible. Recovering a forgotten password from MTS is done via SMS. Accordingly, if you do not have a SIM card, you will not be able to restore the access code.
There is a feedback form on the operator’s website for sending letters to customer support. But, alas, it is designed for only two types of messages - claims and information about fraud. It is impossible to send a request to connect or disconnect services using it.
If you do not have access to your account, you can set a block using the USSD command *111*157# or by personally contacting the company. You can do this:
- by calling the support service from any available phone (number 8-800-250-08-90);
- by contacting one of the company's sales offices in person.
Short number
What else can you pay attention to? There are many options for connecting the service you are studying, as well as disabling it. You can call the short number 1116. A robotic voice will turn on here.
The subscriber must listen to everything that is told to him after the call, then press the button responsible for blocking. Just a few seconds and it's done. The SIM card will be disabled. Either temporarily or permanently. It all depends on which button the subscriber chose.
Voluntary blocking of MTS can be lifted in the same way. Only clients do not leave the best reviews about this method. It works ineffectively, and most often your request can be refused. Therefore, calling 1116 should be considered primarily as a way to activate the service.
How much does the service cost?
The cost of activating the option and its monthly maintenance depends on the specific tariff plan used. This information can be obtained in the information section of the official website, or by directly contacting a qualified technical support specialist. Ask him “How can I find out the cost of the “Auto-dial” option on my tariff plan?”, after which you will need to answer several questions. Such a consultation will not take much time.
Also, participants of the MTS Bonus program can activate the service completely free of charge, using the accumulated points.
Call to operator
By calling the telecom operator, you can enable or disable any proposed function. And blocking/unblocking a number is no exception. Especially if you need to temporarily abandon communication services.
How to remove voluntary MTS blocking from your phone? In the same way as connecting it - by making a call to number 0890. The subscriber must wait for a response from the call center employee. Next, it tells you what exactly needs to be done: block the number or unblock it. In the first case, we must not forget to mention the type of blocking. This function is either permanently or temporarily enabled.
Next, the call center employee will ask for your personal information and check it against the database. After all, all functions with a SIM card can only be performed by the real owner of the number. If everything is correct, a request will be made for the subscriber to activate a particular service. You can hang up. As soon as the request is processed, a message will be sent to the mobile device about the successful activation of the “Voluntary blocking” (MTS) function or about its refusal.
Communication salon
Another very good way is to personally contact the offices of a mobile operator to receive certain services. If you are interested in how to unlock the voluntary blocking of MTS or connect it, you can use this method. Only for him you should take your ID with you.
The first step is to visit the nearest MTS cellular communication store. Next, the citizen informs the employees that he wants to block or unlock the SIM card on the phone. He will be given an application form, which must be completed personally by the client.
Next, the finished document is given to office employees. A few minutes - and connecting/disabling the function will be activated. By the way, to enable (MTS), you can simply give your mobile phone to office employees and inform them of your intentions to refuse to use the number. That is, without a statement. For this, clients leave positive reviews about the company's work. After all, you don’t have to deal with paperwork at all!
But unlocking the phone is a more important matter. And therefore, it occurs only after the corresponding application has been transmitted to employees. However, they return the number to working condition very quickly. Clients indicate that the voluntary blocking of MTS after writing an application is removed in 5-10 minutes. This means you don’t have to worry that the process will drag on!
Why do users have to look for an answer to the question of how to block an MTS SIM card? There are many reasons for this: a long trip abroad or to another region, losing the phone along with the old number, temporarily switching to the services of another mobile network operator.
And if you lose your SIM, you will thus protect your loved ones and friends from fraud. The service we will talk about in this material is called voluntary blocking.
