Tele2 provides a function for compiling a black list of contacts. The phone entered by the subscriber into the filter list will be automatically blocked: incoming calls and SMS will not be accepted. This way you can get rid of annoying, annoying callers, all kinds of unwanted answering machines and services, as well as advertising mailings.
This guide will tell you how to activate and how to disable the blacklist on Tele2.
Activation
To enable the contact blocking option, add the first subscriber to the emergency list using the USSD command:
*220*1*number#
Attention! In a USSD request to add a contact to the filter, the phone number must be indicated with an eight.
After sending the command, the operator will receive a notification about enabling the “Black List” option.
Subsequent contacts are entered into the emergency response with the request - *220*1#.
You can also enter the name of the SMS sender into the filter. Send a command to service 220 in the format:
1*sender
For example: 1*Bank-Credit
The function allows you to block no more than 30 contacts. Its cost varies depending on the region. You can find out the Black List tariff for free on service 678 (help center).
Shutdown
To disable the Tele2 blacklist, dial *220*0#.
There is no deactivation fee. All specified phones and senders will be immediately unblocked (calls and SMS will be received from them). But they will be stored in your subscriber profile database for a month (from the moment you disconnected the service). After this period, the contacts that were entered into the filter are deleted. When the emergency is turned on again, they will need to be entered again.
You can also turn off filtering for an individual subscriber without deactivating the functioning of the entire blacklist. This procedure is performed using a USSD request:
*220*0*number#
Unblocking the SMS sender by name is carried out by sending the command “0*sender” to the service - 220. For example: 0*TAXI
After removing the last number from the black list, the service is automatically disabled. The number blocking function is available in all Tele2 packages with the exception of corporate tariffs and the Modem package.
