Landline number
The full city number is also 11-digit. A complete set of city number (or "Geographic National Open Plan") includes:
- 8 (or +7) – code for accessing the federal line on the territory of the Russian Federation.
- XXX – region prefix (often with the addition of the locality prefix XX).
- XXX-XX-XX is actually a unique subscriber number in a city format. Can have any combination of numbers from a pool of numbers assigned to a specific geographic area by the Ministry of Communications and Communications (Federal Communications Agency).
Calls made to or from such a number within their locality require dialing only a unique number - from 5 to 7 digits depending on the region (“Geographic local open plan number”). Calls from mobile numbers, as well as calls from landline numbers in other regions of the country, require dialing the full 11-digit subscriber code.
Advantages
A home telephone is considered to be the standard of stable communication, since, unlike mobile phones, it does not have problems with a weak signal area or a dead battery. All city numbers from the Tele2 operator have one important feature: the last 5,6 or 7 digits exactly repeat the digital combination of the federal number. The length of the match depends on the region and city of residence of the subscriber, as well as on the “beauty” of the number. In each region where the Tele2 company provides its services, there is a certain number stock from which you can choose any telephone number you like (from simple to platinum) and attach a landline number to it with the last digits repeated.
Making calls from a home phone within the same city is much cheaper and more convenient, since the user does not need to enter a long number into the phone. All you have to do is dial a seven- or six-digit number and wait for an answer. If the call is made to a mobile device, the subscriber will see the subscriber number in federal format on the screen. As for incoming calls, they are duplicated on both phones, which is very convenient. As a result, not a single important call will be missed.
It is worth noting that a landline number on Tele2 is useful not only for home use, but also for corporate clients. Companies and enterprises connected to fixed telephone communications have a clear priority over competitors at all stages of doing business. It is often more convenient for potential clients, customers and business partners to conduct dialogue through a landline telephone.
Usage differences
How does using a Federal number differ from using a City number?
- Calls to landline numbers within your region do not require payment.
- Calls to landline numbers within your region do not require dialing region prefixes.
- Calls from all regions of Russia require dialing a regional prefix, which was previously strictly tied to a specific region.
The difference in the set of numbers has only a psychological meaning and is in no way an indicator of “solidity”, “location” or anything else. There are, of course, differences: calls made within your “geographic pool of local numbers” become more convenient due to the shorter digital number combination.

How does this happen?
So how do subscribers using mobile devices receive “City numbers” if there is a strict geographical binding of number combinations?
The fact is that when you purchase a new SIM card with a “City number” or connect it, you get two numbers linked to each other, duplicating the last 4 – 7 unique digits (local number depending on the region). These numbers are the correspondence between city and federal MTS numbers. That is, knowing the subscriber’s federal mobile number, we will be able to call him in the “City Number” format. But it’s difficult to tell how to find out a federal mobile number, knowing the city number. There are a lot of prefixes of different mobile operators in the same region.
There is mutual constant call forwarding between your numbers. By providing , your mobile operator enters into a special tripartite agreement with the local fixed-line operator (MGTS in Moscow, Rostelecom mainly in the Russian Federation).
Connecting to your current federal number is not always possible - it all depends on whether the operators have the opportunity to provide a duplicate landline number.
Checking through a package of documents
You can find out the necessary information if you just rummage through your closets. When connecting to the provider’s services, an agreement is drawn up, which indicates the telephone number assigned to the SIM card. Find the documents you need.
The operator also promotes special starter kits. They include: a SIM card, a tariff plan, a list of standard services and a card with reference information.
Owners of modern devices can check the combination in the phone settings. On Android, the SIM management tab displays the characteristics of the current card, including the phone number.
These methods indicated in the article are the simplest and do not cause any particular difficulties. Subsequently, write down or save the characteristics so as not to find yourself in such a situation in the future.
Beneficial tariff plans and options are needed not only by individuals; entrepreneurs and legal entities are no less interested in them than ordinary subscribers. Individual entrepreneurs and company executives will certainly be interested in Beeline's new offer - a landline number.
This is an excellent solution for business - using a short number is easier to communicate with clients, it is easier to remember and faster to dial when calling. Moreover, unlike landline phones, a mobile device with a direct number is not tied to a location; you can insert a SIM card into any phone and use it anywhere.
How to connect
Subscribers who decide to connect a landline number can contact the sales office. Consultants will provide a list of available rooms. The client only needs to select the appropriate combination of numbers. There is no other way to activate the option.
As for corporate clients, they are recommended to contact the business market service. You can find out contacts on the website “megafon.ru”. To activate the option, you need to provide an application, which was previously signed by the head of the organization.
It is important to remember that you can only connect one virtual number. If the client has forgotten the digital combination, you need to dial the code “*122#” or “*155#”. Each request will cost the subscriber 1.59 rubles.
Shutdown
Do you want to know how to disconnect a landline number from Tele2? To do this, you will again have to visit one of the operator’s offices, since there is no option to independently deactivate the service. To find out what documents to have with you, you will have to contact the “Emergency Subscriber Assistance”: by call, chat or personal visit. Just like during connection, during the disconnection procedure nuances may arise that should be discussed with the operator in advance. This is especially true for deactivating a direct number registered to a legal entity.
Subscribers who have been using the services of the mobile operator Tele2 for a long time are well aware of the differentiated approach to payment for services for each region. In other words, in each region of the Russian Federation there are individual prices for the first and subsequent connections, as well as the amount of the subscription fee. In general, the cost of activating a city number does not exceed 100 rubles and can be provided free of charge for the first time. The subscription fee is small - 3-6 rubles/day. You can find out about prices currently in effect only at the Tele2 help desk, since this information is not yet available on the official website.
If after reading this article you still have questions, you can ask them in the comments or call the Tele2 operator. Regional technical support staff will be able to provide extensive advice on current prices, connection times and a full list of functionality of a Tele2 landline number.
Who is it suitable for?
The option will be of interest to anyone who wants to buy and install a home telephone, but for some reason cannot do so.

What is a federal and city number on MTS, Megafon, Beeline and Tele2?
We all know what regular mobile phone numbers look like. Most people visually imagine MTS
", "
Megafon
", "
Beeline
" and "
Tele2
" at least in their region. These numbers are provided by default to every subscriber who buys a SIM card, and are essentially federal.
That is, a federal number is a number that, when dialed, you can reach the subscriber, no matter where he is in the Russian Federation. You can also call this number from abroad. It looks like this: +7 (8) XXX XXX XX XX
.
The first digit ( +7
or
8
) is the RF code.
Next comes the three-digit code of the mobile operator ( 988
,
905,
etc.), and the number ends with seven specific digits, which are assigned to each individual subscriber.
When calling from a home phone to a federal number, dial eight, and when calling from a mobile phone - 8
or
+7
. Calls to federal numbers, as a rule, are paid if the calling subscriber has not subscribed to a special service (which, in turn, will charge a subscription fee).
A city number usually contains seven, six or five digits (depending on the number of subscribers in a given city) and is intended for calls within your city. That is, you can call directly to a city mobile number only when the subscriber receiving the incoming call is in the same city as you. You can call from both mobile and home phones.
If you are in other regions, then you can call a city mobile number by first dialing the city and country code of the called party.
Having a city mobile number is almost the same as the number assigned to your home phone, the only difference being that the mobile phone is always with you. The payment is the same (monthly, per minute, etc.), and calls to it within your city are free. Also, a city number is easier to remember.
What does the federal and city number of MTS, MegaFon, Tele2, Beeline mean?
The difference between a federal number and a city number may also be in price. It all depends on the mobile operator and its offers. As a rule, subscribers choose federal numbers without a subscription fee, and city numbers with one. Although, everything can be the other way around.
Gentlemen, tell me about changing the MTS direct tariff
numbers. Due to the lack of relevance of the city number, I decided to change it to a federal one (fortunately, it is in the code 985 by default). I wrote an application at the MTS salon to switch to MAXI federal
.
Accepted. Wait. I receive an SMS that I have been transferred to MAXI city
.
I call on 0990. And they tell me that it is impossible to disconnect from me, that there are federal and city numbers. So, my city and federal cannot do it.
Isn't this a blizzard? And what should I do now with the tariff plan to which I was transferred, despite the fact that I did not order it? They didn't notify us about this. It is also 2 times more expensive than the one I switched from (Business Universal).
I went to the MTS office on Saturday and wrote a claim asking for the old tariff to be returned.
Everyone agreed that they had no right to change to MAXI urban. They should have been notified of the impossibility of switching to the federal one.
So, we wait from 10 to 45 days.
Wow. Then I’ll go to the office and let them decide on the tariff. I did not order this service. There is no desire to pay 1200 per month.
Only I can’t understand how this can be. So that I could call directly, I connected it 5-6-7 years ago and paid for it monthly. Why can't it be turned off?
Everything is very simple. The city (495) number exists only in conjunction with the federal backup (985) with matching 7 digits. It is impossible to “untie” federal 985 from the corresponding city 495.

Everything was a little different. Either: a) you initially had a direct number in code 095 (now 495), to which a federal backup was added b) you initially had ANOTHER federal number (with a tariff for a federal number), and to ensure the ability to “call like a direct » You changed the number (entirely) along with the tariff.
It is simply impossible to connect to an ARBITRARY federal number (and such a possibility has never been possible).
Still, I can’t believe it. So I take the usual (985)7654321 (for example), and I can easily make sure that (495)7654321 exists, not tied to it in any way.
This link exists only on paper from OpSos in order to charge 1200 rubles per month. And a basic comparison of tariffs shows that the market level of subscription. City fees in code (495) are 250 rubles/month. For (499) — 150 rub./month.
