Rostelecom has long held a leading position in the ranking of domestic telecommunications operators, offering an expanded list of services. You can get access to a broadband Internet connection, digital television, home telephone, mobile communications and even a service for sending telegrams at Rostelecom. Any individual or legal entity who wants to deliver an unusual message to the recipient that is still relevant today can send a telegram by telephone to Rostelecom.
There are also many different ways to arrange the service:
- by contacting the nearest service department;
- by contacting the operator using one of the available methods;
- by sending an SMS message filled out in a certain form, or by calling the appropriate number;
- using the user's personal account.
In this material we will look in detail at each of the methods, the process of registration, payment, sending and tracking the delivery of a message to the recipient.
How to send a telegram via Rostelecom
To send a text message using RT, you do not need to go to the telegraph office or company, as was the case before. If desired, an urgent message can be sent at any time of the night, and if there is no money, even on credit. The resulting document has legal force, which allows it to be used even in legal proceedings (if necessary), when contacting municipal authorities or other structures.
There are several ways to send a text message. Let's highlight the main ones:
- Through the call center. The easiest way is to send a telegram via Rostelecom by phone. In this case, you need to dial 8-800-301-01-26, declare your intention and dictate the information to the operator. After receiving the information, the company employee creates the shipment. The number may vary depending on the region. For example, in Omsk you can submit a telegram using another Rostelecom phone number - 066, for the Tomsk branch - 077, for the Altai branch - 8166, etc. It is better to clarify this question on the official website at the link - rt.ru/telegramm. The service is available on any home or work phone.
- In sales offices. If there is a company salon nearby, you can contact it and ask employees to send a Telegram to Rostelecom online or in another way. To send a text message, you must have a passport with you for identification.
- At the post office. If you haven’t figured out how to submit a telegram by phone to Rostelecom, or there is no such option, come to the post office. It is worth considering that not all branches provide the service. In addition, the option is usually provided to persons with disabilities.
Before sending a telegram via Rostelecom by phone, prepare additional information. When sending a message, the following data is required:
- category;
- view;
- address of the recipient;
- text and signature.
Many people ask how to send a telegram via the Internet to Rostelecom. Currently this service is not available. Officially, there are only three options, which were mentioned above.
Features of sending messages by telegraph
Did you know that most secret messages are sent as a telegram? This method of communication allows you to encrypt and decrypt sent/received messages from a business partner, a colleague who found out this or that secret from competitors? Using a special telegraph machine, you can deliver important information about a round of negotiations in just a few hours, in the form of a shorthand recording; journalists also cannot use this method of communication if they urgently need to send a finished report to a newspaper, television broadcast channel, or their boss.
Although the telegraph method of data transmission is used less and less, it is still too early to send it to the margins of information telecommunication technologies - this time has not yet come, and is unlikely to ever come, since only this method allows you to reliably encrypt the transmitted information.
The main condition for this type of communication as a telegram is the presence of separate dedicated telegraph lines through which information is exchanged, that is, one can send and the other can receive a message sent only to him.
Well, what does the service of sending a telegram give to an ordinary user? We'll talk about this further.
Types of telegrams
Today, Rostelecom offers two ways to send a text message. Let's briefly look at their features:
- Urgent. Used to transmit emergency information, for example, about death, force majeure, wedding, etc.
- International. Sent to the CIS and Baltic countries. The telegram must be sent in a language that is permitted in the recipient country using Latin letters.
If you decide to send a Telegram via Rostelecom phone, first determine the phone number for your region (this was mentioned above). In this case, select one of the types of shipment:
- on art form;
- on a musical form;
- with delivery on time specified by the customer;
- with notification of delivery.
It is worth considering that the cost of the service directly depends on the type of shipment.
Features of the service
With the help of Rostelecom, you can send a telegram at Russian Post. This is the most popular and familiar method for older people. It has already become a tradition that every year during the May holidays, veterans can use the service for free.
Additional options can be ordered for an additional fee:
- receive delivery notification;
- obtain a certificate indicating at what address the sender is registered;
- receive a copy of a sent or received message.
The message can be sent not only to other cities in Russia, but also abroad. After all, the telegraph today operates all over the world. There are three ways to send paper messages:
- by phone (8-126);
- at the post office;
- in the telecommunications department.
The first method is considered the most convenient. After all, you can order the service without leaving your home. The main thing is to call from a landline and follow the instructions. You will need to provide the following information:
- type of telegram;
- address; message;
- You can add a signature if you wish.
Unfortunately, today only landline numbers can be used to send short messages to Rostelecom. Mobile communications or internet for the service are not available in many regions. But you can try calling 8 800 3001 076 to check if the option works in your city.
If you want to send a message to another country, the words will be written using Latin letters.
How much does it cost to submit a telegram?

How to track a telegram
Today, many are accustomed to the fact that a parcel or other item can be tracked via the Internet using a number or other data. It will not be possible to control the movement of a Rostelecom telegram via the Internet. The company does not provide such an option. When sending a text message, the company does not assign a track to it, so control is not available in the usual way.
But this is not necessary. Despite the fact that Rostelecom telegram tracking by number is not provided, you can always dial the operator and ask about the fate of the text “parcel”. Situations cannot be excluded when some kind of failure occurred in the system or there is a human factor.
To be on the safe side, it is better to send a telegram to Rostelecom with acknowledgment of delivery. In this case, you won’t have to worry whether the package is delivered to the person or not.
What is a telegram and why is it needed?
Today, telegram is not a popular service. This term refers to the transfer of information from one recipient to another. Previously, such a service was quite in demand, since it was the only communication option for many people.
Telegrams appeared before the 19th century and became a reliable way of communicating and transmitting information through a special wire or radio signal. Having reached our time, this service has become completely unclaimed. Most companies have abandoned telegraph communications because there is no need for it. Using modern technologies is much more convenient and profitable.
The Russian provider Rostelecom still supports this type of communication. Previously, telegrams were used to communicate between citizens, send invitations and congratulations. This service is now used exclusively for sending notifications from various organizations and departments.
Alternative Methods
Today there are many options for how to send a telegram online, including the ability to track it by number or other means. Let's highlight several alternatives:
- Post office. On the website pochta.ru you can send a text message by phone or online telegramma.pochta.ru. Requests are accepted around the clock and delivered within the established time frame. To send, you must indicate the recipient's address, enter the text of the telegram, order a copy and pay for the service by credit card.
- Telegraph service online. On the website telegraf.ru you can send a telegram message to anywhere in the world. This can be done online after filling out a special form.
- Central telegraph. Another way is to tell another person important news through the website cnt.ru. Here you can also send a shipment by phone, via the Internet or other methods.
In all cases, the principle of transmitting the message is the same. The main thing is to study the tariffs and delivery conditions in advance, and only then make a decision about the possibility of using the service. If you are satisfied with everything, you can place an order.
Despite a number of restrictions and the inability to track a Rostelecom telegram by check, many people use the company’s services. This is due to the relatively affordable price, high speed of delivery by telephone and a large range of additional services.
Telegram with notification of delivery
If it is necessary to conduct an independent assessment of the damage caused to property as a result of an apartment flood, the owner of the apartment will need to call all interested parties for an inspection. To do this, you need to notify them of the fact of an inspection of the premises, for which a damage assessment will be carried out. The interested parties in this case will be the owner of the apartment on the floor above, representatives of utility services and the insurance company (if the apartment was insured).
Of course, this can be done by phone, by email, or by handing over a document about this in person.
