Sometimes cash for certain services are debited from the phone balance after choosing a promotional tariff or connecting starter pack. Megafon subscribers and future clients of the company should know why subscription fees suddenly begin to be charged, and how to disable unnecessary functions.

Why is money debited from my account?

Almost everything mobile operators offer to their clients paid subscriptions. They are usually provided free of charge for a specific time. So, in Megafon you initially do not need to pay for connecting such functions. After 2-4 weeks, money will begin to be debited from your account automatically. This is completely legal.

No operator will just steal funds from your balance. The only catch is that companies increase their income through veiled services, including various active subscriptions.

Often, customers do not pay attention to additional terms written in small print, as well as to the small recurring fee charged to the subscriber account.

This often leads to unpleasant surprises in the form of withdrawal of an impressive amount over a long period of time.

The most clear way to understand where the money goes is to detail it. It can be ordered through the client’s Personal Account for a certain amount. However, there is also free ways finding out the necessary information.

How to check connected subscriptions

To find out the connected subscriptions and their prices, you should use one of the methods below.

USSD command

You can see information through a special request on your smartphone as follows:

  1. On the screen mobile phone dial the combination *105#.
  2. Next, select 1 in the menu that appears, and then 4.
  3. Having entered your Personal Account, press the number 4.

Then it will come to your phone text message with a list of services. To deactivate subscriptions, press 3. It is also acceptable to use the command *505#.

Via text message

You can send an SMS with the word INFO to the number. It is acceptable to enter characters in Latin or Cyrillic.

Through the Internet

To check paid subscriptions online, proceed as follows:

  • go to the official resource of the provider;
  • To do this, register by number *105*00#;
  • enter your password and log in to your account;
  • go to the options section.

Paid subscriptions will be displayed on the page.

Options for disabling subscriptions

To disable the option, you must select one of the following methods:

  1. Through the Internet. You need to log into your account on the Megafon website and find the tab with functions. To disable the option, you need to click on the corresponding button opposite the subscription.
  2. Without using the Internet. If you do not have access to the network, you need to send the word “STOP” to the number 5051. Next you will receive information that will help you deactivate the services.
  3. Using a SIM card. New subscriber identification modules have a specific menu, which is located in “Tools” or in “Megafon PRO”. You need to go into it and select the item with subscriptions. Next, you need to enter the connected options on this SIM card. Soon you will receive an SMS about deactivation methods.
  4. Through a company employee. It is permissible to call the number, where the operator will quickly solve the problem of disabling the service, or contact directly the Megafon office, where paid functions will be deactivated.

You can learn more about the description and terms of subscriptions on the website http://podpiski.megafon.ru . Combinations for refusing a specific service are also indicated here. Let's look at them using popular content as an example:

Checking paid services

To check other paid services, you must use the following methods:

  1. Through the personal account of the official website. Go to your account and open the “Services and Options” section. Next, disable unnecessary functions.
  2. Through an application on your phone. The Megafon Personal Account application has a similar interface, which can be downloaded for free through the Play Market.

If you cannot access the Internet, then you need to call the number from your mobile phone and explain to the operator what services you need to disable.

Prohibition on connecting services and subscriptions

In Moscow and the region there is a “Stop Content” service, which allows you to put a ban on paid subscriptions. You can connect it like this:

  • through your Personal Account on the Megafon website;
  • upon request *105*801# or *526# ;
  • from company office employees.

In the regions, the availability of the function must be checked with the organization’s employees. No wonder that this service advertises inactively, because the operator does not want to lose revenue from paid content.

The option does not have a regular monetary contribution; it is activated free of charge. However, it has several disadvantages:

  • it will not be possible to send SMS to short numbers;
  • you will not be able to pay for parking or participate in some sweepstakes;
  • Sometimes you can't use mobile banking.

Thus, “Stop Content” is great for people who are not very versed in subscriptions (elderly subscribers), as well as those who want to disable old options and no longer activate new ones.

One of the leaders in the mobile market Russian Federation, Megafon provides its subscribers with access to a huge number of tariffs and related services. Among the latter, we can note the mobile subscription service, which, according to the operator, makes it possible to regularly receive interesting content on your gadget. But this service is also something of a bone of contention between the company and its customers, because some of the subscriptions, for example, the one associated with the number 5051, cause certain problems if you want to cancel. What lies behind this 4-digit combination and how to deal with the operator’s annoying offer will be discussed later in this article.

What do you have to deal with?

Among the many services that Megafon provides, the 5051 mobile subscription, like others in this category, is perhaps one of the most controversial. Surely, every subscriber has seen a service menu in their phone, usually linked to a valid SIM card. Here you can find out the latest news, horoscope, jokes and other useful and not so useful information.

Unlike system menu, which is available by default, the subscription service becomes available only after paying a subscription fee.

  • Its peculiarity is that funds are written off daily. The cost of the service depends on which of the paid packages is activated. There are nine of them in total, if you look at the official page at http://podpiski.megafon.ru/: Entertainment

  • . Everything that is new and interesting appears in the world and is recorded by the lenses of photo/video cameras is available for viewing in this package. Adult

. This channel is sure to attract the attention of Playboy fans, as well as anyone who wants to succeed in their love affairs.

These are not all the subscriptions from number 5051 that a Megafon subscriber can arrange - the rest can also be found on the service’s website.

Each of the above Megafon subscription packages has its own identifier in the system. This is necessary to make it easier to distinguish and connect them when USSD assistance commands or SMS messages to short number 5051. If you systematize all this information, you will get the following table:

Package name Text of the SMS message to number 5051 in the form “95X” USSD command type *505*Х# Cost of service, rub./day
Its peculiarity is that funds are written off daily. The cost of the service depends on which of the paid packages is activated. There are nine of them in total, if you look at the official page at http://podpiski.megafon.ru/: 13 31 5

If subscriptions are connected not as a package, but separately, then their cost will naturally be different - all information is fully contained on the Megafon website in the corresponding section. It should be noted that the connection process itself is not charged separately - the cost of this procedure is already included in the price of the package/individual subscription.

As is typical for the operator, all these actions can be performed through the individual service “Personal Account” in the “Services and Options” section. Here you can determine which of the subscriptions are in this moment are active, because, as practice and statistical data show, the majority of Megafon subscribers either have no idea about the connected services from the number 5051, or do not remember which of them is active at the moment. To determine, you must send a free request in the format *505#. Another option would be to order invoice details.

To unsubscribe from existing subscriptions, you can use one of the following options:

  • Find the “Mobile Subscriptions” site and select the current option to disable it.
  • Take advantage of the opportunity to send an SMS message with the text “Stop XX” to number 5051. As you might guess, instead of the XX characters you need to substitute the personal identifier/subscription code, which are contained in the table above.
  • Enter the USSD command *505*0*ХХ# on your keyboard. Here, you will also have to substitute the service code instead of the missing characters.

As you can see, Megafon provides plenty of ways to free the subscriber from the extra subscription burden from number 5051.

In a situation where funds are systematically debited from your phone balance without any objective reason, you should not immediately blame the provider for dishonest fulfillment of its obligations. Any operator, including Megafon, values ​​its reputation and will under no circumstances withdraw money from its user’s personal account without good reason. Here you need to carefully analyze the optional functionality of the number and understand which paid services that are useless to you were activated as part of the package offer, and which ones were activated due to your own carelessness.
