The article brought to your attention will explain how to check the rest of the traffic on Megafon. All methods are absolutely free. Based on the positives and negatives of each, recommendations will be made regarding their use.
What are the ways?
Today, there are many ways in which you can learn how to check the balance of traffic on Megafon. Among them are the following:
- using a modem and its software;
- by special request;
- call service center;
- by sending SMS to a number specially reserved for this purpose;
- on the official website of the mobile operator.
Each of them will be discussed in detail within the framework of this material.
Using a modem
This method is most often used to find outthe rest of the traffic. On the Megafon modem, this can be done using the software utility that comes with the kit. Its interface has a "Statistics" button. By clicking on it, you can find out the number of remaining megabytes or gigabytes. But at the same time, at the bottom of the screen there will be a message stating that the data is approximate and that you need to use another method to obtain more accurate information. This method only works on a PC or laptop and gives only an estimate of the remaining traffic.
Request from phone
You can find out the rest of the traffic on Megafon using your phone or smartphone. For this, this operator has a special command. The dialing procedure is as follows: enter 105 and press the call button. In response, we will receive the rest of the traffic. In principle, this method also works successfully on some modem models. Another nuance that needs to be taken into account is that such a request can only be sent from phones that can work in the network of this operator. That is, those mobile devices that are flashed under Beeline, MTS or TELE2 cannot not only send such a request, but even register in the Megafon network. This must be taken into account when trying to find out in this way the number of remaining gigabytes or megabytes.
MegaFon Customer Support Center
Megafon subscribers can see the rest of the traffic not only on the screen of a mobile phone or personal computer. It can still be heard over the phone by calling the support numbersubscribers. In this case, you must do the following:
- Install the SIM card in the mobile phone (if it was in the modem). Do not forget that this device must work correctly in this network.
- Turn on the device and enter the PIN code, if necessary.
- At the next step, dial "0500" and press the button with the green handset.
- After the connection is established, following the instructions of the answering machine, we connect with the operator.
- Then ask him to enter the number of megabytes or gigabytes left.
Not a very convenient method compared to others, as it requires a lot of additional steps.
SMS
You can determine the rest of the traffic on the Megafon modem using SMS. To do this, you need to type “Remainder” or “Ostatok” in the text of the message and send it to the number “000663”. In response, information will come with the remaining number of gigabytes or megabytes. It should be noted right away that this method does not work on every modem model. There are devices that do not support sending text messages. In this case, you can remove the SIM card from the modem and install it in a mobile phone, and then perform this operation on it. Again, the firmware of the device should allow full registration and operation in the network of the Megafon mobile operator.
Official site
Another way to check the balance of traffic on Megafon is based on using the official website of thismobile operator. To be more precise, the "Master Guide" system is applied. In this case, you need to perform the following manipulations:
- Launch any of the installed browsers on the PC.
- Using a search engine, we find the official website of this mobile operator.
- First, we go through the registration procedure in this system. We fill out a form with personal data. In it, we specify the password for accessing the Master Guide service. Then we receive a text message with a registration code. This procedure allows the operator to uniquely identify you as the owner of this mobile number.
- Using the password (it was set in the previous step) and phone number, we go into this system.
- In the "Data Transfer" section we find the information we are interested in.
The main disadvantage of this method is that the available megabytes are used to determine the remaining amount of traffic. And so this is the most accurate method that allows you to track the necessary information in real time. To do this, it is enough to press the function key F5 as needed. After updating the information in the browser window, the exact balance of gigabytes or megabytes will be received.
Recommendations
Now let's compare the pros and cons of the previously given methods of how to check the rest of the traffic on Megafon, and decide which one is the most optimal. The first is based on the use of modems and a software utility, quite simple and affordable. But hereits accuracy is not the best. If you have more than 10 megabytes left, then it is quite possible to use it. But with less traffic, it is better to use some other method. The most difficult from the standpoint of practical implementation is a call to the customer support center. In addition to the fact that you need to perform many actions, there is not always a free operator. That is, you are forced to wait for a connection for some time. Sending SMS is also not the best choice. Not always in the answer from the first time the necessary information comes. The method based on the "Master Guide" system is also not optimal. In the process of determining traffic, you lose the number of remaining megabytes or gigabytes. Therefore, it is most rational to use a query. And you get the answer promptly, and the traffic remains intact.
