Each user may encounter a problem when he urgently needs to dictate his phone number, but he does not remember it. Most often, people who have recently switched to the tariff of a new operator find themselves in this situation. What to do in this case? Each cellular operator offers its subscribers to find out data using simple USSD commands. The developing mobile operator Tele2 also has such a service. So, how to find out your Tele2 number? In this publication we will look at all the available methods.
Using USSD command
Each Tele2 subscriber can find out or check the details of their SIM card using a special USSD command. To do this, you need to enter a simple combination *201# . After this, an information message with the following text will appear on the screen of your device: “Your federal number is +71200000000.” This service is quite convenient. You no longer need to memorize a complex 11-digit combination of numbers; you just need to remember the simple combination *201# .
You can use this option anywhere in the country. In addition, for sending a request to the operator, funds are not charged from the personal account.
In addition to this option, there are other ways to view your phone number. They are more complex, but can also help the subscriber get out of an awkward situation. Let's talk about other methods in more detail.
The need to determine your Tele2 number
When registering in the Tele2 network after receiving a SIM card, each new client receives a unique telephone number, by which he is identified among other consumers of the operator. The telephone sequence consists of 11 digits, including the subscriber's country code and provider encoding.
The digital combination cannot be repeated among other users until the contract is terminated; it belongs to one person. If the service is terminated or the client is blocked, the provider has every right to issue the number to another user, in which case it will not be possible to restore the contract.
The user independently selects a telephone combination when connecting to Tele2 from the available list. With an additional payment, a list of beautiful numbers opens, in which several numbers are repeated; the more identical ones, the more expensive the activation. Standard numbers are quite difficult to remember, especially in the first period after registering a SIM card. The provider recommends writing down the sequence on a separate piece of paper or in the notebook of your mobile device so that you can use it if necessary. If the old contact is changed, the subscriber can inform his interlocutors about this using the “New number” option.
The phone number is an important user identifier not only in the cellular operator’s network. You will need it in almost every area of modern life:
- When applying for a new job or study.
- When filling out documentation, applications, and appeals to authorities.
- When registering on online resources, on social networks or meeting other people.
Anyone can forget the sequence of numbers at the most important moment. Not all users have excellent memory, so the operator has prepared several ways to clarify their own data.
Free message
If you have connected and cannot find out your data, then use (“Beacon”). To send a free message, dial the following combination *118* subscriber number#. After this, your interlocutor will receive a message in the following format: “A subscriber urgently asks you to call back.” Your phone number will also be included in the text of the message.
How to find out a phone number on a tablet
But there are methods that are only possible on devices with this OS: How to find out the number on a tablet with Android OS
How to find out the SIM card number of a tablet from various telecom operators
Attention! This method of determination is only possible when exchanging data between Apple devices.
On tablets with the Android operating system, the user enters the phone number manually in the settings when installing the SIM card for the first time. This action is optional.
Therefore, only if you have done this before can you find out the treasured numbers. Since the methods for determining it for each of the mobile operators are almost the same, we will consider them together.
Some clients of mobile operators have 3-5 numbers and this is normal, but in most cases these are also numbers from different operators. But how to remember them all or how you can quickly find out your number, we will talk about this in our material using the example of the Tele2 company and its subscribers.
Call the contact center
If necessary, you can also check the details of your SIM card at Tele2 customer support. To do this, enter the combination 611 in your phone and press the call key. After connecting to the Tele2 call center, you should explain your problem to the operator’s representative. After this you will be given all the necessary information.
It is worth noting that the mobile phone number is always indicated on the SIM card packaging.
Therefore, after activating the SIM card, it is not recommended to throw away the starter package. If necessary, you can always look at your phone number on the packaging of your card.
Blocking your Tele2 number
If you plan to stop using your mobile device or SIM card for a long time, due to moving abroad on vacation or other reasons, then set up a temporary blocking of the number. There are several types of blocking:
- Voluntary. The user independently decides to stop servicing the SIM card for a certain time with the possibility of subsequently restoring operation.
- Automatic. If the user has not been active for a long time (180 calendar days) and has not used communication services, then the company unilaterally closes the service agreement, gradually spending all funds from the personal balance. Also, forced blocking is established if there is a debt to the operator.
There are several ways to suspend SIM card service:
- Use your personal Tele2 user account. Go to the official portal and log in to your account. On the top panel of your personal account, click on the profile settings item. In the next window, select the security and authorization item. Click on the block number button. Confirm the action.
- Set restrictions in the My Tele2 application. After successful authorization in the system, in the right panel, find the tariffs and services tab. In the list of available offers, click on the “Voluntary blocking” item. Read the warning carefully and confirm sending the application.
- Contact the provider's specialists, call the technical assistance service 611 , or personally visit the service department. At the salon, a company representative will ask you to fill out a standard application. Be sure to take your passport as an identifier of the right to own a SIM card. The operation is available only to number owners.
As a result, you will not be able to use cellular services, make or receive calls, send messages or consume Internet traffic. All this is closed until required. The contact will be blocked until the user submits a request to restore the SIM card. To resume work, you will have to submit an application at Tele2 offices. It should be taken into account that in the event of a forced ban, it will not always be possible to restore the number; the operator has the right to transfer the combination to another person.
Why is this necessary?
Many tablets are equipped with a SIM card slot. Thanks to it, you can access the Internet away from home and wireless networks. The presence of a cellular communication module is one of the important parameters for a number of users.
Why do you need a number? We list the probable reasons:
- You need to top up your account.
- Share it with friends and relatives.
- Ask your loved ones to top up your account.
- You must enter it into the registration form for a specific program or website.
- Other situations when the number may be useful.
The problem for many subscribers is that after purchasing a card, they cannot remember the data for a long time. It will take several months before customers refuse additional verification methods.

How to contact the Tele2 operator?
There are times when automatic customer service systems cannot provide the information of interest, for example, a personal telephone number. It is at such moments that you may need the free help desk of your chosen mobile operator. There are times when the billing system malfunctions when calculating the subscriber's expenses for using communication services; only a help desk consultant can notice this error.
All questions regarding the quality of subscriber service can be asked to the operator who responded. The toll-free helpline number for Tele 2 subscribers is 611 ; you can use the services of this service if any problem occurs. In order not to forget this short number, you should add it to your phone book contacts list. This number is displayed on the official envelope issued when connecting to the network, and it is also reflected in the signed agreement. Before making a call to an experienced Tele 2 operator, it is advisable for the subscriber to have his current passport at hand, because all personal information regarding the use of the number and connected paid services is not provided without personal information.
All accurate information is provided only to the owner of the number; if the number is a gift and is not registered to the subscriber, then this method is unacceptable.
If any general question arises, the need for consultation on a new tariff or a profitable service, then it is quite possible to do without the original passport. When a subscriber often has various kinds of questions, he can go to the nearest service office, set a unique code word that will be known only to him, and it will be displayed in the subscriber system. This is very convenient, because in the future he will not need to provide personal data every time.
A call to an experienced Tele 2 operator is absolutely free for subscribers located in the country. But if the subscriber is on domestic Russian roaming and needs urgent advice from the operator, he can contact this service using another number available for making international calls - +7 (951) 520-0611 .
