Mobile operators offer a large number of tariffs and services for subscribers. Among the offers there are very profitable ones that can significantly reduce the cost of cellular communications.

The “Favorite Number” service from MTS is intended for those who often and for a long time talk with some of their friends and relatives.

There are 3 main ways to connect, but first check out the features of the service below:

In May 2021, one of the leading companies providing cellular communication services on the Russian market, MTS, offered its customers a new service. The unique option “Favorite number of Ukraine and Armenia” is intended for those who constantly or for a long time communicate with subscribers from these regions, which by all accounts is not cheap. This mainly concerns conversations with subscribers from Ukraine. The offer from MTS allows you to make calls to selected numbers for a once-set fee once a month and thereby save significantly.

Another modification of this service is the “On request” option. This option will be ideal for subscribers who do not need to systematically hide their number, but nevertheless use this opportunity quite often.

The essence of the proposal is this: by activating the service, subscribers will make calls under standard conditions, and other customers will see their number on their devices, however, when entering the appropriate combination before directly dialing the subscriber’s number, the number hiding service will be activated and operate exclusively for this one call.

• Fee for each day of use: 1.05 rubles;

According to the conditions, the selected favorite numbers must belong to the MTS company in Armenia and the Vodafone or MTS companies in Ukraine. There are no additional restrictions on the number of minutes spent per day or per month. The offer is valid subject to international access and the presence of the subscriber within the home region. This is the region in which the SIM card was purchased and registered.

There are two connection options. This can be done through your personal account in the “My MTS” mobile application (if this application is installed) or by sending short commands directly from your smartphone.

The connection diagram via the mobile application is as follows:

1. Log in to the “My MTS” application on your smartphone.
2. In the upper left corner there is an icon in the form of three strokes. Click on it and enter the menu.
3. In the menu window, scroll down and go to the “Services” line.
4. On the services page, click “Available” located on the right side.
5. Click on the line “Call discounts”.
6. Select the required service and click the red “Connect” button below.

Before connecting, carefully read the description of the service and its terms and conditions.

The second activation method is to dial the combination *111*56*0# and press the call button.

After the option is activated, you can proceed to the settings:

• To add a number to the list, you must dial *111*56*1*(country telephone code)(subscriber number)# and press the call key. You can add all numbers at once, or one at a time as needed. After adding, you will receive an SMS message confirming that it was successfully added.
• To check the added numbers you also need a short command. You need to dial the combination *111*56# and press the call button. Then, after sending the request, follow the prompts of the menu that appears.

There is no additional charge for adding or changing selected numbers. You can change one of them or all of them at once an unlimited number of times, also for free.

When entering numbers into the menu, you must remember that for subscribers from Ukraine, the telephone number along with the country code is 12 digits. For telephone numbers of subscribers from Armenia – 11 digits.

Additional features

You should know that in addition to the main savings from calls, the user gets the opportunity to check the balance of another MTS LLC subscriber, since within the option itself there is a system for dialing a USSD request of the form “*111*2137#” + “Call”.
This allows you to connect the balance of another subscriber. This can also be done through working with the “Internet Assistant”. If you need to find out the balance of another person included in the “Favorite Numbers” program, you simply need to enter a USSD request of the established type “*140*number (without dialing eight)#” + “Call”. After this, an SMS message with the necessary text will be sent to your device. Remember that the “other subscriber’s balance” service itself is provided completely free of charge.
