Cellular companies, including one of the industry leaders, MTS, in this case meet customers halfway and offer them a range of services available at zero balances or debt by number. At the same time, many services do not even require a connection and use, for example, sending special USSD commands.
Therefore, if you suddenly run out of money in your personal account, and there is no way to get to the terminal or use the functionality of the self-service system, Personal account, do not despair, but order one of the services. An MTS subscriber has several offers available at zero. You can use the “Promised Payment”, when the client borrows from a mobile operator and uses all communication services for a certain period, and after it expires, he replenishes the balance and returns the entire amount with a small percentage. You can also call at the expense of the interlocutor or order one of the beggars (this is the simple name for two services from MTS).
It is about them, about “beggars”, or the “Call me” and “Top up my account” services that we will talk about in this review-instructions. If you don’t have time, and you need to get through to your interlocutor urgently, type the following commands on the keyboard and send:
- To use the “Call me” service, send a USSD request *110*subscriber number# call .
- To use the “Top up my account” service, send a USSD request *116*subscriber number# call .
How to send a beggar from MTS - “Call me” service
This service is specially created mobile operator so that the subscriber can stay in touch in the most difficult situation. If there is zero or minus money on the SIM card, you have the opportunity to take advantage of the beggar by sending a text message to the interlocutor asking him to dial you. The request looks like this: USSD request *110*subscriber number# call . To make it clearer, look at the example: *110*79573818239# call.
As soon as your command is sent, the service will process it and you will receive an instant result - a text message stating that your request has been delivered to the recipient. Your interlocutor, whose subscriber number you specified after the command, will also receive the same text message. This service is also popularly called a “beacon”. And such beacons can be sent 20 times in 24 hours. That is, you can communicate during the day with all the necessary interlocutors, without having a single ruble in your account or even being in the red. However, the service can also be used free of charge outside home network. This is when you are either in national roaming(traveling around the country), or to international roaming(beyond its borders).
The Call Me service is not specifically activated on the SIM card, but can be disabled. This opportunity is provided to those subscribers who do not want to receive such requests from friends and pay for calls. But if you deactivate the “beggar” and want to use its capabilities in the future, you need to connect it. To cancel the service, use the USSD request *110*0# call. To re-activate, dial *110*1# call. If you use your Personal Account, disconnect and connect there.
“Top up my account” service
This service, like the previous one, is called “begging,” but unlike it, it involves “topping up your account” with another subscriber, and not just a call. The service is recommended for use in difficult situations when it is not possible to top up your personal account within a few days. In order not to be left without a full-fledged connection, it is better to ask your loved ones to transfer a certain amount to your balance.If you find yourself in exactly this situation, dial and send a request *116*subscriber number# call . The top-up amount when using this method will be at the discretion of the subscriber you are asking for the service. And if you need to specify a specific transfer amount, use another USSD request: *116*subscriber phone number*replenishment amount# call .
Alternative
There are also alternative options, which are worth using when the first methods did not work. For example, there is a service similar to the first “beggar” called “Help”. Its purpose is the same as that of the “Call Me” service. Your interlocutor receives your request and dials you, making the call at his own expense. To use this service, add to the required subscriber number prefix (numbers must go first) 0880 .
A separate command has been developed for those who are roaming *880*subscriber_number# call . If you use it, the system will call the number of your interlocutor and offer to accept the call (click on button 1) and pay for it. The person you are dialing may refuse your request. In this case, he will press the number 0 or simply press call reset.
If all else fails, and it is impossible to remain without communication, do not rely on friends and family, but ask for a loan from your mobile operator. MTS has special service for such cases - “Promised payment”. You are lent a certain amount, and you pay it back over time. Read more about the service in our separate review.

But, as they say, “there are no hopeless situations,” and it is for such emergency cases that MTS provides the opportunity for its subscribers to send an SMS with a request to call back.
The procedure is very simple - you need to dial a special code on your phone and the number of the subscriber to whom you will be sent a free request to call back; by the way, the recipient of the request can be a subscriber of any telecom operator, not just MTS. After you send a request, the message “Your request has been accepted” will be displayed on your phone screen. You have N requests left today”, where N is the number of requests remaining. During the day, you can send an SMS with a request to call back no more than 5 times (however, the company’s official website says that the maximum number is 20 times). The subscriber to whom you sent the request call back will receive a text SMS “Call me back, please”, it will display your number, date and time when you sent the request.
How to send “call me back” from MTS?
You have run out of money, you need to contact someone urgently, you can send free sms“call me back” is very easy! Dial on mobile phone request: *110*phone_number# and press the "call" button. Where “phone_number” is the phone number of the person to whom the message should be sent. The number can be dialed in any way: +79121234567, or 89121234567, or simply 9121234567.

You can send a request to call back from MTS while you are in the region where the number is registered, and in national or even international roaming. And a cellular subscriber of any operator in the world will be able to receive your message with a request to call you back.
How to prevent receiving “waiting for a call”?
If you are tired of SMS from “friends” who always have no money and constantly send you free requests to call you back, you can prevent MTS from sending them to you. In order to block incoming messages to your number from this service, dial the request *110*0# “call”. To resume receiving such requests, just dial *110*1#.
If, after sending a request to call back to MTS, you notice unreadable characters on the display of your phone, your mobile may not support the Russian language. To change the language for displaying information from transliteration to Russian, you should dial *111*6*1# (for the reverse transition, use the request *111*6*2#).
How else can you send a request to call back?
In principle, this method cannot be called a method; it is just a manifestation of goodwill and MTS’s concern for its clients. If your balance does not have enough funds, but you try to call someone, then the call will, of course, be denied and a polite voice will say “Your account does not have enough funds to make a call.” At the same time, the subscriber you tried to call will receive a message that you dialed him and you have no money. Unfortunately, this service does not always work and is not mandatory, so we recommend that you still send an SMS yourself with a request to call MTS back to you, especially since this is done very simply.
