The following situation can happen to every mobile phone user: the balance on a tablet or smartphone approaches zero, and there is no way to replenish it at the moment. This is where the “promised payment” provided by the MegaFon telecom operator to its subscribers can come in handy.
The "promised payment" option makes mobile communication more accessible, because the need for additional money on the balance sheet may arise at any time. The essence of the service is that the cellular company lends money to the client to replenish the zero balance.
You can connect the "promised payment" in four ways:
1. Through the USSD-portal - dial the command * 106 # → "call", in the menu that opens, select the desired items. The service will be activated in just seconds.
2. Via SMS to short number 0006 - enter the required amount in the message field, the account will be instantly replenished.
3. By calling the toll free number 0006 and executing the commands of the autoinformer.
4. Through the Service Guide. Go to your personal account on the operator's website, select "available options" → "promised payment" and activate the option.
Any user can take the "promised payment". The size can be 50, 100, 300 rubles and depends on how long you have been a client of the Megafon company and the amount you spend to pay for communications and the Internet for a month.
A modest commission is charged for connecting the "promised payment" option, it depends on the loan amount and is 5-20 rubles. The service is activated for three days, during this time it is necessary to replenish the balance for an amount equal to or more than the cost of the tariff + the amount of the loan + the commission for the service.
You cannot activate the "promised payment" option if you use the "credit of trust" service. And one more small inconvenience - while the payment is not paid off, such functions as "Mobile payment" and "Mobile transfer" become unavailable.
