The purchase of a new SIM card of the mobile operator MTS implies its use. And use, in turn, requires activation of the card. This procedure can be done in several ways.
Instructions
Step 1
If a SIM card is purchased in an official MTS store, then the easiest way to activate it is to ask a sales assistant to perform this operation. This is one of the free services provided by the salons of all major mobile operators.
Step 2
If for some reason this is not possible, try simply inserting a SIM card into the device - many of the latest packages support the automatic activation function. Switch on your phone and dial any free short number specified in the contract. Typically, after that, the mobile device is automatically activated.
Step 3
Another way to activate a SIM card provides its subscribers with a special service, which can be accessed by dialing 737-8081. Do not forget to indicate the international code of Russia - +7, and Moscow - 495. After the operator's response, you will need to name the code expression or the word chosen when concluding the user agreement at the time of purchase. Unfortunately, this method of activating a SIM card takes a fairly large amount of time - according to the assurances of MTS, no more than a day, but not less than two hours.
Step 4
If you have a computer and Internet access, you can use the company's specialized online activation service. To do this, go to the www.activate.prostomts.ru page in your browser and indicate your tariff in the catalog of the start window that opens. Fill in the required fields in the next window. These include personal details, passport number, email address and mobile phone number. Use the special button "Send for activation".
Step 5
Please note that the activation of the purchased SIM card must be carried out within seven working days! Also, do not forget to replenish the account on the card - if the balance is zero, it is impossible to activate. The minimum amount of the first top-up is indicated in the description of the selected tariff plan.
