On December 1, 2013, a law came into force, which gives the right to users of services of mobile operators to change the service provider without changing the number.
Necessary
100 rubles, passport
Instructions
Step 1
You go to the Beeline office and get an extract from the contract with Beeline with your personal data. You need to make sure that the data in the contract is entered correctly, in accordance with the passport data. Girls should check that the contract is not in their maiden name if they got married. If you find any inaccuracies, then you need to ask Beeline employees to change the data in the contract to correct. If you have a postpaid settlement system, then it is recommended to switch to prepaid and fully pay off the debt to Beeline.
The presence of debt to the operator will be the reason for refusal to change the operator.
Step 2
You go to the Megafon office and write an application to change the operator. To write an application, you will need a passport. Right there in the office you will need to pay 100 rubles. This is the maximum amount of payment that a mobile operator can charge you when you switch to its services. At the office, you will be given a SIM card for your phone. At the time of writing the application, you will be told about the current Megafon tariffs, from which you will need to choose the one that suits you.
Step 3
Then you wait exactly 7 days. During the first day, you still have time to refuse the application by calling Beeline and notifying them that you have changed your mind. Then the transfer process begins. Megafon notifies you by SMS in the course of work: you are pre-approved, you are approved, etc. All this time, Beeline has been working for you. Do not put a lot of money on the account, at the time of switching to Megafon, everything that remains on your account will go to Beeline.
Step 4
Exactly 7 days later, at about the same time when you wrote the application, you need to insert a new SIM card into your phone. First copy all contacts from the old SIM card to the phone memory. After restarting your phone, you will already have a Megaphone. You will have zero or a minus on your balance, depending on the tariff that you chose when applying at the Megafon office. The first payment can be made only at the Megafon office, employees are warned about this at the time of filing an application to change the operator. Top up your balance and use the services of a new operator with the same phone number!
