Calls with loan offers, annoying messages from advertisers - every mobile phone owner faces this. And if SMS can simply be deleted, then incoming calls are often caught at the most inconvenient moment. Spam can drive even a phlegmatic person to a nervous breakdown. But if you refuse to answer a call from an unfamiliar phone, you may miss something important. Lee Beaumont found a solution to the problem. The original solution will appeal to everyone who is tired of the flow of unnecessary information.
What is this?
A paid mobile phone number is one in which when calling, the interlocutor pays money, which flows into the owner’s account. As a rule, this opportunity is used to organize private consultations.
This is convenient for both parties. The consumer does not need to look for the possibility of transferring money to the contractor; it is enough to simply top up the balance of his own phone. Subscribers with a postpaid system will have to pay the operator. For the performer, such a system is also convenient, as it allows you to immediately receive funds. The convenience of both parties is that they do not need to independently calculate the duration of the consultation, since everything happens automatically.
How to create a white and black list
Whitelist is an optional feature. With it, you can receive calls without confirmation. To create the presented list, you need to activate the “Personal List” feature (completely free) by dialing *111*785#. Setting:
- Enter *880*0# and select the second option. Next, follow the system instructions and specify the phone that will be added to the White List.
- The second method also involves dialing the command – *880*22*number (10 digits)#.
- The third option is to send a message to phone 8800 with the number “22”.
To erase the phone, enter *880*23*number# or via SMS to the same phone, sending “22*9188181818”. You can also send a notification with a request to be added to this list - *880*41*9878787987#.
The second function is Blacklist. It allows you to restrict certain users. That is, if, with a minus balance, a person tries to send you a notification asking “call me back,” then he will receive a refusal. Before creating, be sure to activate the “Personal List” function. To add to the emergency situation you need:
- enter the combination – *880*26*phone#;
- send a message with the number “26” to 8800.
To remove a subscriber from the emergency situation, dial 880*27*phone#, or send SMS “27*9879877183”. One list can contain a maximum of 10 phones.
Find an operator
So, answering the question of how to make a paid number, you cannot ignore the search for a company that provides the corresponding service. Nowadays, a considerable number of operators offer a similar service for their own clients.
As a rule, several tariff plans are available, which differ in cost. The funds that the operator receives for are transferred to the client automatically. For example, to a bank card or electronic wallet. Cash payments are also possible. It all depends on the conditions of a particular operator.
Before contacting an operator, try to collect as much information about him as possible. Otherwise, there is a possibility of becoming a victim of scammers who are unlikely to help those who are interested in how to make a paid number. And even if you manage to conclude an agreement, there is a high probability that the funds for the service will not be transferred to you.
That's why you need to find out as much as possible about a potential operator. Find out how long the company has been on the market. Ask your friends. Perhaps one of them has previously used the company’s services and will be able to share their own experience and impressions with you. If you have any doubts, try to find another operator that has a reputation as a reliable partner.
How to get details in your Personal Account
In the Personal Account, the subscriber can view two types of details for free: urgent (online) or on a regular basis. The initial steps are the same in both cases.
In order to order call details through your Personal Account (PA) and identify how money was spent on an MTS SIM card, you need to perform the following steps:
- Open the official website of the mobile operator MTS;
- Click on the “Personal Account” button located in the upper right corner;
- Select “Mobile communications” in the pop-up window;
- Enter your phone number and password;
- Select the “Expenses” section located on the left side of the main page of the Personal Account.
Attention ! If you do not have a password for your Personal Account, use the link “Receive password via SMS” and a message with a code will be sent to the above phone number in a minute. Use this code to set a new password.
“Urgent” detailing
In the “Expenses” section, you can set the desired time period and receive a report online. To do this, click on the calendar icon and select dates or click on the “for today”, “for week”, “for month” option. The corresponding information will be displayed on the screen. If there were no expenses or transactions for the selected period, you will see a notification “You have no expenses for this period.”
Important ! Using the method described above, you can view the details of calls for free to an MTS number only for the last three months.
If you click on the “Order a report” button and enter your email, the report for the last 3 months will be sent by email in PDF format, and a notification about the successful completion of the operation will appear on the screen. This report contains the following information:
- Selected period
- The total amount of balance replenishments for the selected period,
- The total amount of expenses on the balance sheet for the selected period,
- Current balance,
- Transaction history: name of service, volume of service, expense per transaction.
This way the user can see how many, to whom and when he called or sent SMS. The price for each service will be listed separately, and in the first line you can see the total amount of expenses for the period of time you specified.
This method is called “urgent” and is convenient in cases where the subscriber needs to check recent expenses, identify unknown charges, find out the cost of a recently sent SMS or the duration of the conversation.
Detailing “on a regular basis”
In addition to “urgent” detailing, MTS has the opportunity to receive an expense report “on a regular basis.” But this service is available only to owners of tariffs with a monthly subscription fee, for example, Smart TP. To activate the service, you need to go to the “Personal Account” tab, then in the “My Account, Monthly Invoice” section, add your email address where reports will be sent. Next, in the “Service Management” section, add the “Detailed invoice (periodic)” option. This method works for free.
Enter into a contract
Some companies provide the opportunity to conclude an agreement for a paid number on the website without visiting the office. However, you can prefer the standard method and personally contact the operator’s office. This option is also acceptable for those users who do not plan to use the services of intermediaries.
To connect a paid number, you will need to have the necessary list of documents with you. Clarify its best in advance using remote methods of communication with the operator.
If you are interested in how to make a paid number for incoming calls, you need to know one interesting feature. The point is that Russian operators can ask a potential subscriber for the reason why he needs a separate number. It is possible that the company will need some time to consider the application, during which you will have to wait for a decision on your own request.
Earnings from receiving calls from 5,000 rubles per day on a fully automatic basis
Just like in the scam about “former WebMoney employees” who know “magic wallets” that double your money, here too there is a kind-hearted person working at MTS/Beeline/Megafon who supposedly wants to make you happy.
And so that you don’t suddenly have time to jump off, and while you are on a wave of enthusiasm and are already dreaming of what you will buy with the money you earn, you must pay on the day you receive an answer.
“This service is not officially connected to your number. " Yes Yes Yes. And such companies as MTS/Beeline/Megafon will engage in such a black scheme and then transfer your “earned money”??? Exposing yourself to regulatory authorities for the sake of your earnings? Do you seriously believe this? Do you believe that they will provide you with a paid number without a contract?
After payment 1500 rub. “for connecting” the number - of course they will stop communicating with you.

Peculiarities
Before you create a paid phone number, you need to decide on the service that you plan to provide to potential clients in this way. It is equally important to take care of advertising and determine your own target audience to which the offer will be sent.
Ideally, such activities should be officially registered. Otherwise, it is possible that the operator will refuse to provide a paid number if the potential subscriber applies as an individual, and not as an entrepreneur or representative of a company. The reason is that paid numbers are often used by scammers to deceive some customers. That's why companies carefully monitor those who register paid numbers.
Before contacting a specific operator, collect as much information as possible about the companies that offer to connect to a paid number. Find out the conditions, tariffs, cost of service, etc. This is very important. For example, some companies may offer an inexpensive connection, but in the future they compensate for their own financial losses with a high monthly fee set for the subscriber. In addition, some operators claim a share of the profit that the paid number will bring to the owner.

How to make money on a paid number?
It seems incredibly easy to make money from incoming calls. It is enough to place an advertisement, wait for calls from subscribers and make a profit.
However, such a simple scheme is only in theory. In practice, as often happens, everything turns out to be somewhat more complicated. This method of earning money is fraught with a considerable number of pitfalls.
First of all, registering a paid number is quite expensive. In addition, part of the profit has to be paid to the operator who provides the service. The payout percentage varies from forty to eighty points. It must be said that such a condition significantly reduces the expected profit for those who plan to use paid incoming calls.
However, this way of earning money is quite realistic. But only those who provide in-demand services can count on receiving sufficient profits. It is unlikely that subscribers will make paid calls if they do not receive interesting or useful information in return. This is why it is so important to identify services that are in demand among the population.
We cannot ignore the fact that many companies make money using a paid number in dishonest ways. To this end, they promise to pay winnings for answering simple questions or deliberately hide the fact that a fairly high fee will be charged from the subscriber for an outgoing call. This is why there is a low level of trust among subscribers in such services. However, this does not exclude the fact that you will be the one who will be able to earn money using a paid number.
Price
The cost is completely fixed and depends on the location. For example, when you are abroad, different prices apply. Below we will study this issue in more detail.
In Russia
The option does not charge a fee to the subscriber who uses it. Money is debited only from the interlocutor who accepted the call. Price:
- within one region – 2 rubles/minute;
- if the subscriber is in another region - 3 rubles per minute;
- in intranet roaming – 8.9 rubles.
Abroad
The price for calls depends on the country. Basically, the cost is 20 rubles per minute of conversation, but in some countries the price can be 80 rubles. At the moment of using the option, the autoinformer will definitely notify the called subscriber about the cost.
