Command to obtain information about the rest of the traffic. Find out the remaining Internet traffic on the MTS smart tariff

The Internet has long been firmly established in the life of modern people. The need to quickly obtain the necessary information can arise almost anywhere: at home, at work, in the middle of the street. The most effective and convenient way to obtain the required data is the Internet, and the tool for obtaining it is a mobile phone (or modem).

The number of people using the mobile Internet service increases every year, and this is understandable - at any time there will be an indispensable information assistant at hand.

So, the decision to “get” such an assistant has been made. Cellular telephone you have a mobile Internet service connected in the communication salon. After you start using the service, some time passes and it becomes noticeable that the Internet speed has decreased significantly.

There is no limit to your indignation, because every site on your phone loads extremely slowly. Naturally, the next action will be to go to a cell store, where you will find out that you have simply used up the entire amount of Internet traffic at the issued tariff.

It becomes interesting: what is the essence of the problem? The communication salon consultant will be happy to explain everything. It turns out that depending on the chosen tariff plan (and the amount of money paid, respectively), you receive a certain limit of information (measured in megabytes) available for downloading from the Internet.

It is important that downloading data from the Internet means both downloading files to any mobile devices and viewing websites and web pages.

In other words, every time you access the Internet or view any websites, megabytes are consumed on your cell phone, the number of which is limited. After the limit of these megabytes is exhausted, Internet access will still remain, but its speed will be very slow. There is no special service to extend traffic, but it’s still worth drawing conclusions. Namely, regularly monitor the remaining megabytes on your mobile phone.

How to find out the remaining traffic on Megafon?

– convenient and reliable way find out how much traffic is left on Megafon

You need to understand that this method requires having the Internet “at hand” - on your home computer, a relative’s or friend’s device, or on your phone (if it still has unused megabytes).

Procedure:

  1. You need to open any browser and type lk.megafon.ru in the address bar;
  2. In the window that appears, you need to enter your phone number and password;
  3. Enter your phone number where you need to find out the remaining traffic. But there are several ways to get the requested password. So, if you are interested in data about the remaining traffic on your phone, then you need to dial *105*00# and call - an SMS message with a password will be sent to your cell phone. And if you want to find out the remaining megabytes on your modem, router, tablet, then you need to click on the “Internet Account” link (located next to the password entry line).

After such actions, you will be taken to the Personal Account of your SIM card, which will contain a lot of different information, including connected services, tariff plan, and expense.

Traffic data is located in the “Current discounts and service packages” table. This indicates the number of Megabytes allocated under your tariff, the amount of Megabytes used, as well as the balance of available Megabytes for a specific period.

Check the remaining traffic on Megafon via SMS or USSD

There is a simple way to check the remaining traffic. It is available even when there is no access to a computer with the Internet, and the Internet on your phone does not work (perhaps precisely because all the traffic has been used up). You will need to dial a combination *558# and a call from the phone on which you need to find out the remaining Megabytes. After completing this simple procedure, you will receive information on the remaining traffic in the form of an SMS message to your number.

You can also send the word “Remaining” from your cell phone to a short number (or using dialing in Latin - “ Ostatok"). The message that will come in response will contain information about the remaining unused traffic.

Other options for checking the remaining traffic on Megafon

You can find out how much traffic is left on Megafon directly at the company’s office. To get information about the megabytes available on your number, you need to go there with your passport or driver’s license. Specialists instantly provide the data of interest.

In addition, it is possible to call toll free numbers Megaphone ( 8 800 333 05 00; 0500 ). After connecting with the operator and briefly identifying yourself, you will receive all the information you need via your own number.

But please note that calls from roaming to the Megafon network number 8 800 333 05 00 are charged, accordingly, when calling from abroad to this number, funds will be withdrawn from the account!

The end of the billing period is still far away, but the Internet speed has dropped? To avoid finding yourself in such a situation, it is necessary to promptly check and control package balances. This will help you spend traffic more economically. If you can’t do this, you can use internet renewal services. Let's look at all the ways to check the remaining MTS traffic.

Using USSD

The most common option is the USSD portal. This is due to the fact that this method does not require an Internet connection. It is enough to be within the network coverage area. To check your balance, use the command *107#. After sending, a menu will appear on the screen in which you can select the package you are specifically interested in. The answer about the remaining number of gigabytes or megabytes will be sent in a system message.

Via SMS

Another option for finding out the remaining traffic on MTS, which does not require access to the Internet, is sending an SMS message. To use it, type “?” in the text. and send it to number 5340. The operator will send you a message that will display all the information about your remaining traffic.

Via service number


A universal option to view any information about the tariff, services, active options and remaining packages is to use the development of the MTS Service operator. It works at USSD assistance code *111#. The offer does not need to be specially activated, since it is valid for all MTS subscribers without exception. There are no mandatory payments for its operation. To view the remaining traffic, enter the command *111*217# on your smartphone.

Through the application and personal account

For those who have constant access to mobile data transfer, you can check the balance on MTS using the company’s official resource. To receive a response to the requested information, you must first log in to your personal account.


This is done very quickly. To register, you only need to indicate a phone number to which a one-time login password will be sent. After you have entered your personal profile, pay attention to the “Number Management” tab and select “Internet Traffic”.


The page that opens will indicate the remaining number of megabytes or gigabytes. Nearby are the operator’s proposals for increasing Internet volumes and the options available for this.


Information about balances can also be obtained in the “Expense Control” section in the “Account Status” tab. This page displays not only the remaining traffic on MTS, but also packages of minutes and messages.

The operator has developed the “My MTS” program specifically for mobile devices. It has the same functionality as your personal account, but is more convenient for users of smartphones and other portable devices. You can download the application from any official internet market - Google Play, Windows Store or Apple Store. After installation on your phone, log in and, if necessary, change the password to a more convenient one for you. Information will be received immediately after opening the application, since data about the remaining Internet is located directly on home page service.

Through MTS employees

If none of the previously mentioned methods are suitable, you can always turn to the company’s consultants for help. This can be done in person or by phone. If you want to apply in person, you need to visit the nearest MTS sales point. In order for specialists to help you, you must present an identification document. After identifying the subscriber, the consultant will provide any data on the status of the account balance, expenses and package balances.


You can also contact specialists through phone number call center 0890. The identification procedure is no different; passport data will need to be dictated. If the consultant asks for a code word, then you need to give it too. After this, voice your request, and the telesystem operator will answer all your questions.

On an MTS USB modem


The procedure for checking balances on a modem is no different from actions via a smartphone. The following methods are available to obtain data:

  1. USSD code *217#.
  2. A message to number 5340 containing a question mark.
  3. Personal account or mobile app.
  4. Call the operator or visit the customer service office.

To access the network from a modem, you need to connect special contracts, for example “MTS Connect 4”. As a rule, they operate only in conjunction with auxiliary services for accessing the Internet.

For residents of Ukraine

For subscribers located in Ukraine, determining how much traffic is left is quite simple. To do this, you can use the USSD combination **101**103#. You can also find information using your personal account on the website or on a mobile device.

Checking balances on additional services

You can find out the remainder of the package using the combination *217#. If the *107# command allows you to find out the number of remaining packages provided under the terms of the tariff plan, then the second one was created to check the balances of auxiliary Internet options, for example, “Bit”, “Turbo-Button”, “Internet Maxi”, “Internet Mini”, “Internet VIP”, etc.

Recently, especially for mobile Internet on a tablet, I bought myself an MTS SIM card with a good tariff. Now everything suits me: the speed, the price, and the volume of traffic. Yes Yes! Despite the fact that the tariff plan is seemingly unlimited, there is still a limit, if exceeded, the access speed will be cut to 64 Kbps.
Of course, if necessary, you can work like that, but I would like comfort. Therefore, you still have to control how many megabytes or gigabytes are left.
MTS has several ways to find out the remaining traffic according to the tariff.

1. Information USSD commands

The simplest and quick way get balance information using USSD commands. There are two of them, but the result of their action is almost identical. First:

Enter it on your phone or tablet in the calling application:

The result will be an SMS message.

Second command:

*111*217#

On the phone it will look like this:

The execution result is the same as the previous one.

There is no charge for requests. At the time of publication of this article, there is no limit on the number of requests.

If you are using a package offer on the Smart, Smart Mini, Smart Plus, Smart Nonstop and similar tariffs, then in order to check how many Megabytes are left on the MTS number, enter the following USSD request:

In response to this, the provider will send an SMS message with complete information on your package.

2. Subscriber’s personal account

The second method allows you to see how much traffic is left on your personal account - MTS personal account. It is located at this address:

https://lk.ssl.mts.ru/

You can use it even if you are not near your phone or tablet. The main thing is to have access to the Internet and know the login password. This is very convenient, for example, if you keep track of your child’s account.

After authorization, on the main page of the site you can see a separate widget “My Internet”. It displays the tariff directly used (in my example it is “Smart”), the number of Megabytes used and the remaining MTS traffic.

Note: The operator has a similar subscriber online service “Internet Assistant”. In terms of functionality, it is practically a double of a personal account. Even the password from one service matches another. Therefore, I will not consider this method separately.

3. Mobile application “My MTS”

To make managing your services from a mobile phone or tablet even easier and more convenient, the telecom operator has made special application"My MTS" It is available in app stores for major mobile platforms - Android and iOS. After installation, you will need to enter your login information. Well, then you will get access to all the functions that are available in a regular MTC subscriber’s personal account. The main window of the program will display all the necessary information: Minutes, SMS and how many Gigabytes or Megabytes are left.

4. “Connect Service” extension

Especially for owners of USB modems and mobile routers, MTS has created a special extension for the popular Google browser Chrome, which, among other features, also allows you to check traffic. It's called "Connect Service". However, it is also suitable for all other browsers that run on the Chrome engine.

After installing the extension, a button with the operator’s logo will appear on the right side of the window. When you click on it, a pop-up window appears, which displays all the basic and necessary information: account status, the presence of restrictions or options on the tariff, and, of course, consumed and remaining MTS traffic. If the limit is over, there is also fast access to the Turbo button, which for a fee will allow you to add speed or additional megabytes.

5. Other ways to find out traffic on MTS

Here I want to look at several other options that also allow you to check the rest of the “Internet” in megabytes. They are less convenient than the previous options, but they can also be used to obtain the necessary information.
MTS connect— This is the application that comes with the package software, installed when connecting branded 3G/4G modems. There you can view statistics on used Megabytes and see the remaining traffic on your account. Unfortunately, the program only works with branded devices of the provider.
Call operator 0890- this classic method, a few years ago, was the simplest and most convenient way to check the remaining traffic on MTS, until an automated help system was introduced. Despite the fact that it seems to be created for the convenience of subscribers, in fact, climbing through the branches of its menu is long and tedious. And getting through to the operator directly becomes a difficult task. But nevertheless, it is possible if you apply some persistence.

* 217 # or *111*217#

Subscribers connected to tariff plans with limits on Internet traffic and other services risk being left without communication if the quota ends. To prevent this from happening, it is important to take care of automatic additions in advance, and also periodically find out the remaining amount of available traffic.

When choosing a tariff plan, please note that some offers provide for the preservation of the remainder of the Internet package. These are such tariff plans as “Smart Plus”, “Smart Top”, “Ultra”. If you have not used up your quota, the remaining Internet traffic will be carried over to the next month. In the next period, the traffic volume from last month will be used up first, and then the main package. The balance will not be transferred again.

If you decide to change your current tariff, do not forget that when you switch, balances on service packages are not saved. You can get information about the volume of the package and see the remaining traffic on the website internet.mts.ru
