USSD commands are simple combinations for executing various commands to manage subscriptions, and also allow you to find out the latest information on tariffs, service packages, balances, etc. They allow each subscriber to comfortably customize their phone for themselves. They are used very simply: the required combination is entered into the dialing window and activated by the “call” button. The required information is immediately received in response, which can also be used in further steps.

In this article you will learn about the main and most important USSD commands of Tele2, which will be useful to almost all subscribers of the company.

Managing funds on the account

These are the basic commands known to anyone who uses mobile communications even at a minimal level. Tele2 has these numbers:

• *105# – phone balance. The most popular command among subscribers of any operator. It is important both for those who regularly pay for communications in accordance with the tariff, and for those who use non-tariffed services a lot.
• *122*1# – “Promised payment”. The option helps subscribers out in cases where they are unable to deposit money into their account on time: it allows them to use the so-called “trust payment” to stay in touch and pay for it a little later.
• *123*number# – “Top up my account.” The service allows you to send to another subscriber a request “Please top up my account,” which will also help out those who, for some reason, cannot do this on their own.
• *145*number*amount# – “Mobile transfer”. This is a top-up for another subscriber. After entering this combination, the specified amount will be debited from your account and transferred to the selected number.

Obtaining information about the current tariff and subscriptions

These options help the user conveniently and easily manage services:

• *108# – provides information about the current tariff.
• *107# – current data on the balances of service packages of the current tariff.
• *146# – message about available Tele2 tariffs in roaming.
• *153# – allows you to manage paid subscriptions. When you send a request, you receive a message with full information about such functions as “Anti-AON”, “Black List”, “Beep” and other paid services connected to your number.
• *115# – information about the “Beep” service: the melody that currently sounds instead of the beep, other possible options and their cost.
• *117# – information about the Caller ID service, with which your number will be hidden from those you call. The option is activated by dialing the combination *117*1#.
• *220*number# – if the “Black List” service is activated, using this option you can block any subscriber whose calls and SMS messages you no longer want to receive.
• *111# – “Tele2 Guide”, which will provide information about all current offers and promotions of the company.

Information about Internet Tele2

Tele2 provides its subscribers with a wide range of services that the subscriber can manage at their own request.

USSD commands are the fastest way to find out the necessary information and manage a SIM card: from checking your account to... There is no need to remember all the useful commands, since there are a huge number of them. In everyday life you can get by with just a few of them.

Balance management

USSD requests related to cost control are the most popular. They are used almost every day by all Tele2 subscribers. Here is a small sample that will be useful to the average SIM card holder:

• *105#.
• Information about the current tariff plan with prices *107#, and information only about the name of the tariff can be obtained upon request *108#.
• *122#.
• Request to top up your account *123*number of the subscriber to whom the request to top up your account is sent#.
• to another user *145*recipient number*amount#.
• The code *159# will help you gain access to the portal with a large number of commands. On the portal itself you can find out current requests for working with your balance: transferring money from account to account, topping up from a card, and so on.

These requests are enough to constantly be in touch. Please note that the requests themselves are free, but the service provided by the mobile operator may charge a certain amount as a commission. Also, the successful execution of a command is indicated by a pop-up window on the phone screen or an SMS notification. Most often, an SMS after a request comes from the number 1024.

By the way, the operator offers for online dating. This is a convenient service for people who do not have time to meet people in real life.

Control of communication services

In second place in popularity are Tele2 service numbers for managing mobile communication services.

• Settings for connecting to the Internet or sending MMS *202#.
• Checking the traffic balance for package offers *155*19#, Briefcase – *155*200#, Suitcase *155*201#, in other cases you need to use the combination *155*15#.
• Checking the remaining minutes and the number of messages on the *155*0# tariff.
• Information about tariffs when roaming in Russia or abroad *146#.
• Find out about the availability of paid subscriptions in Tele2 and their cost *153#.

This rather small list of codes is necessary to obtain timely information about the most important functions of the SIM card. Such checks can be carried out every day to monitor the use of communication services. In addition, having learned in time about the exhaustion of free minutes or Internet, you can either take advantage of the service extension in a timely manner, or top up your account in anticipation of upcoming expenses.

By the way, the operator has developed its own tariffs for business. They are quite profitable and convenient for companies and organizations that are constantly in need of high-quality communication services.

Other commands

Such requests cannot be united by one idea and direction, but these several USSD messages receive a bronze place among the most popular commands.

• – an entertainment option for replacing standard beeps with a selected melody – *115# to connect and *130# to disable the paid option.
• Creation, in which the numbers of subscribers whose calls the Tele2 client does not want to receive are entered - *220*unwanted subscriber number#.

The given commands include different combinations of numbers, but in all cases the beginning and end of the request are the same. It is in this version that all USSD commands are sent to Tele2. However, in addition to them, there are also short numbers, which are also quite in demand among subscribers.
