Several ways to unlock a Tele2 SIM card
One lost his phone and blocked the SIM card himself, another entered the PIN code incorrectly three times, and this happened automatically, the third became a victim of a child’s pampering - each has their own history of blocking the SIM card, but they are all united by the desire to restore the functionality of their number. Why is SIM card recovery necessary?
- To avoid losing contacts that were saved in the SIM card memory.
- Use the funds in the account.
- To maintain the previous tariff and connected services.
Let's look at three ways to unlock a SIM card
The first method
When purchasing a Tele2 starter package, the user was given a contract and a SIM card in the original packaging with instructions. In this case, the card was placed on a plastic base, where the PUK code is located under the protective layer.
It is this that will be useful to us for unlocking, because after the possibility of entering a PIN code has been exhausted, a message appears indicating the need to enter a PUK code.
If the original packaging is intact, then we find it, erase the protective coating, find the PUK code and enter it into a special field on our phone.
After which the SIM card will work as before, and you can use all Tele2 services.
second method
This method is intended for those who have long gotten rid of the starter pack packaging and do not want to go to the customer service center.
First, you should borrow a phone for a while to call the help desk at 611. For subscribers of the Tele2 operator, the call is free.
When you connect to the operator, you should inform him about your problem, then indicate your phone number and full name.
This will be followed by verification of your identity. To successfully pass it, you will need to provide the operator with your passport data or code word. If another document was presented when purchasing the starter package, please indicate its details.
After completing the standard procedure, the operator will create an application for SIM card activation. Processing such a request takes no more than a day.
A third method
You can obtain a PUK code to unlock a SIM card at the subscriber service center http://spb.tele2.ru/help/service/centry-obsluzhivaniya-abonentov/.
This will require identification documents that were presented by the user at the time of purchase of the starter package. Please remember that if the PUK code was entered incorrectly 10 times, you will need to restore the SIM card. This can only be done at the subscriber service center. In addition, you will have to pay 50 rubles for this.
