Find out who called from a hidden number. How to determine a hidden number? Activate a special package

The Caller ID function, or automatic caller ID, is available from any mobile communications provider. It is thanks to this function that the number series of the calling subscriber is displayed on the screen of our phone. However, it happens that your cellular device receives calls from an unknown recipient. How to find out who called from an unknown number? This review presents all the methods for declassifying and verifying unknown recipients of various television systems.

How to find out a hidden number from different telecom operators?

Today, in addition to the Caller ID service that is valid on absolutely all mobile devices, cellular operators have the Anti-Caller ID function in their arsenal. Through this service, the subscriber can hide the number series of his mobile phone from the interlocutor. However, the anti-determiner is also not omnipotent, and if desired, the invisible addressee can always be declassified.

If you are bothered by calls from an unknown interlocutor, then you can use the “Hidden Number Identifier” mobile service, which is available in almost any television system.

But there is a “but” here. Firstly, the service may not affect subscribers of other cellular networks, and secondly, it is not free.

It must be said that different television systems have their own methods of declassifying “incognito”. However, perhaps the most reliable verification method is call detailing. This service is also not free, however, it can show 100% efficiency. Now let’s find out how the declassification of “incognito” subscribers takes place using examples from various television systems.


In Tele2, you can recognize a call from an unknown subscriber using the “Intentionally Hidden Number Identifier” service. After activating the service, the user will be able to see the number series of all telephone strangers. Next, the client decides what to do with such interlocutors; for example, he can add them to his contact list and then blacklist them.

It must be said that the function that reveals hidden numbers is not basic and requires a separate connection. Any Tele2 user on any tariff plan can activate it. However, there are some peculiarities here too:

The mobile operator guarantees the correct operation of the service only within the home region. However, practice shows that incoming calls from various areas, and from phones of other television systems, are also declassified in most cases.

If the user's account does not have the required amount to pay the subscription fee, the function is automatically suspended. As soon as the balance is replenished, the function will begin operating in standard mode.

As for connecting it, you can do this:

  • in your Personal Account by entering the “Tariffs and Options” section;
  • by sending the USSD command * 210 * 1 # ;
  • at the Tele2 office.

Immediately after turning on the service, the monthly fee (daily fee) will be debited from the account and the option will begin to work. By the way, after the subscriber resolves issues with an unknown interlocutor, the service can be disabled. All the methods described above are suitable for this. As for the system request for deactivation, it will look like this * 210 * 0 #.

The cost of connection will depend on the locality where the user lives. For example, for the Belgorod region, you will have to pay 3 rubles for connection, and residents of the capital will have to pay 5 rubles. The tariff for using the service per day will be similar, that is, 3 and 5 rubles, respectively.

More detailed information about prices for your region can be found by calling 655.


In the case of revealing an unknown number to Megafon, before activation, the user can test the identifying service. The free period lasts seven days, after which a subscription fee will be charged for using the product.

Any client of a mobile operator can activate “Super Caller ID”. However, Megafon warns that the product will function correctly only within its network.

There are several ways to enable the product on your phone:

  • send the system request: * 502 # ;
  • send an empty message to 5502 ;
  • You can enable the option in your personal account, in the “Tariffs and Services” section;
  • in the Megafon office center.

It is important to understand that upon activation, the account must have the required amount to pay the subscription fee. The cost of the service is 3.50 rubles/day. If the user's account does not have enough funds to pay for the service, the declassification of unknown callers will be suspended. As soon as the mobile account is replenished, the function will start working in standard mode.

You can deactivate the option through your Personal Account, in the telesystem office, or by requesting * 502 * 4 #.

If you want to find out an incognito phone number for free, then you will have to force him to text you. The fact is that the AntiAON service does not apply to text messages, and a previously unknown interlocutor will be displayed on the screen of your device.


If you are wondering how to find out who called from a hidden number on Beeline, then here you can bring the caller to light within the framework of the “Super ON” service. Any telesystem client can activate this option on their mobile phone. After “whose unknown number” is opened, the option can be disabled.

It must be said right away that this function on Beeline cannot be called cheap. The activation of the product itself is provided free of charge, but its use is charged as follows:

  • for prepaid tariff plans – 50 rubles/day;
  • for postpaid tariff plans – 1500 rubles/month.

It is important to understand that if there is a lack of funds to pay the subscription fee, the operation of the service will be suspended.

You can activate the option in several ways:

  • send USSD command * 110 * 4161 #;
  • call 06744161;
  • enable the functionality in your personal account, in the “Tariffs and Services” section;
  • order the activation of the determinant at the Beeline office.

When the option is no longer needed, you can disable it:

Through your personal account;

  • in the office center of the mobile operator;
  • via USSD command * 110 * 4160 # ;
  • by calling 06744160.

Despite its high cost, the Beeline product has more extensive capabilities. For example, to identify hidden interlocutors, the subscriber does not need to be on the home network, since this option works correctly throughout Russia, regardless of where it is activated.

In addition, the option can recognize incoming messages in various formats: long-distance, local, international.


Now let's find out how to identify a hidden number on an MTS phone. To declassify incognito interlocutors, the television system uses the “Super Caller ID” option. Immediately after activating the product, the caller will no longer be unknown. This option works on all MTS tariff plans with the exception of the “Cool” tariff. There are generally many different restrictions on this TP due to the fact that it was developed specifically for school-age children.

It must be said that “Super Caller ID” on MTS is not a cheap pleasure. When activating the product, the client will have to fork out 2000 rubles! The price is of course wild, but don’t be alarmed, this amount is paid once. Subsequently, you will need to pay 6.50 rubles per day for the option.

Despite the high cost of the product, the mobile operator can guarantee the declassification of hidden numbers only in the local network. The option may also not function correctly on older mobile phones. The list of unsupported cellular devices can be viewed on the official MTS website.

When the service is no longer needed, it can be turned off. Deactivation is provided free of charge. However, if you reconnect, you will again have to pay 2,000 rubles for activation.

If such prices do not scare you, then below are the methods for connecting to MTS “Super Caller ID”. So, you can enable the function:

  • in your Personal Account or the “My MTS” application;
  • at the nearest MTS office;
  • by sending a USSD request * 111 * 007 #.

You can disable the service in your personal account or mobile application, as well as in the office center of the telesystem. For more information, please contact technical support at 0890.


If you do not want to connect computing services, but, nevertheless, you need to reveal the anonymity of the caller, then call detailing will come to the rescue. This service is provided by all mobile operators in Russia, but its cost will depend on the specific television system.

Costs and connection methods can be viewed on the official websites of operators. And also on the question of how to view a hidden number using details, you can contact the office of a particular cellular provider.

Automatic number identification service is available by default on all tariff plans of all mobile operators. Thanks to it, the caller’s number is displayed on the screens of mobile phones, which can be entered into the phone book of the device.

For users who want to hide their number, the Anti-AON service is available, which allows you to disable the display of the number. This function is useful for those who, for example, make work-related calls from a mobile phone and do not want the interlocutor to have the opportunity to make a call back to the subscriber’s personal number. However, there are also services with which you can identify a hidden number even with an anti-identifier connected.

Automatic detection of telephone numbers allows us to take advantage of the additional benefits of mobile communications. By storing phone numbers in contacts, we can not only indicate the name of the caller, but also assign a photo to the contact, and even set separate ringtones for each user.

But what to do if some subscribers deliberately hide their number? These calls can be inconvenient because you can't know exactly who is calling your number. And if you also missed the call, then you won’t be able to call back.

Today we will tell you everything about the caller ID service: is it possible to identify and find out a hidden anonymous number, how to identify the owner of an unknown number, and how to hide the number yourself if necessary.

How to open hidden numbers

Automatic number identification is provided free of charge by all Russian operators, but to hide the number you need to pay. Of course, if the operator takes money from subscribers who want to hide their number when making calls, then it is logical that you can also find out the incoming hidden number only for an additional fee.

All operators have services that allow you to both hide a phone number and identify hidden ones. Both services are paid, and the second naturally costs more. You won’t be able to find out a hidden number during a call on your own and for free.

The principle of operation of the service is similar for all operators, but the differences lie in the cost and connection commands. The name of the service is also not significantly different.


First, let's define what a hidden phone number means? Depending on the phone you are using, the screen may display “Unknown number” or “Number hidden” during an incoming call. If this happens, it means that the subscriber who calls your number is using an anti-identifier.

To view and find out a hidden phone number, you need to connect the so-called “super identifier” to your number. The price of the service and its name may vary, depending not only on the operator, but also on the region. So Beeline, depending on the region, has a service with which you can open a hidden number, called “Super Caller ID” or “Super Caller ID”. The price also depends on the region. So, in Kirov it is 5.08 per day on prepayment, and in Moscow it is 50.84 rubles for the opportunity to reveal a hidden number.

The same situation applies to other operators. MTS’s “Super Caller ID” service, which allows you to recognize a hidden number, also has a connection fee - 990 rubles. To see a hidden number you need to make a daily payment of 6.5 rubles.


At MegaFon, a service that allows you to calculate a hidden number will cost five rubles per day in Kirov. There is no additional connection fee. The cheapest way to reveal a hidden number is for Tele2 subscribers - 3.10 rubles per day

After connecting the service to any operator’s number, you don’t have to worry that a hidden number will be displayed on the screen during a call. However, all operators warn that the service does not guarantee 100% display of hidden numbers. So, you can accurately check the displayed number, which is hidden by the user, only if it belongs to your operator and is located in the same region.

How to check unknown numbers

Inconvenience to users is brought not only by hidden, but also simply unknown phone numbers. This is especially true for missed calls. There is no single solution from operators, even on a paid basis.

Today, operators do not have the right to disclose information about the owner of a number who is unknown to another user. Therefore, the user can only independently determine the owner of the unknown number from which calls are received.

You can try to find out this via the Internet. However, it is worth keeping in mind that you can only find information about numbers online if their owners are scammers or the number is assigned to a company.

You can find out who owns an unknown number by entering it in the line of any search engine. After this, a list of sites on which this phone number is listed will be offered. In most cases, this will allow you to find out with absolute accuracy the region where the number is bound and which operator it belongs to. You don't even need to go to websites to do this.

If the number refers to a company, this information will also be displayed on the first page of the search. Her other contact information will also be indicated, including her address.

Information about scammers can be found on sites that have user reviews. They are left by those who have received calls from these numbers. If you also have information about scammers who caused inconvenience, you can also leave a comment on such sites and help other people avoid trouble when communicating with this number.

How to hide your number

Services that allow you to hide your phone number are provided by all operators, and as we said above, the cost of such a service is less than a “super identifier”. Most users ask the question: will the number in the message be detected if it is hidden?


A number that is hidden using an anti-identifier is not displayed only during voice calls. It is not possible to hide the number in messages when using services from operators. Therefore, if you need to hide your phone number when sending SMS, then you should simply use an online service, or another SIM card, the number of which is not known to the recipient of the message.


To make calls from a hidden number, MTS and MegaFon offer two options. You can activate the service and hide the number for any call, and if necessary, make calls with an open number using a special command. The second option, on the contrary, suggests using number hiding only for certain calls. Beeline and Tele2 offer only the first option for using the service.

Operators, as in the situation with a super identifier, warn that correct hiding is only available in their network and in their home region. However, in general, the service also works well in other situations.

Sometimes there are situations when you need to make a call incognito, so that the caller does not recognize your number (CTN) and cannot call back. The other side of the coin is when you received a call from a hidden number, and there is a need to know who called. How to find out? Let's understand the features of the process and consider all possible options.

Why is the number not defined?

If the number is hidden on an incoming call, there may be several reasons why this happened:

If the numbers are “hidden” using “AntiAON”, it can be determined. This is done using different schemes. Let's look at the simplest ones.

Super AntiAON description and cost

How to identify a hidden number if you receive a call from a hidden phone. You can declassify it through the special service “SuperAON”. In Tele2 this option is called “Identifier of intentionally hidden numbers”, or abbreviated as “OUSN”.


Hidden number detector helps to recognize the caller, even if “AntiAON” is enabled on his SIM. The service is free to connect and costs 10 rubles per day. At the time of connection, payment is debited for the current day.

Attention! The cost is indicated for the capital branch. In other branches "OUSN" has excellent prices.

If you don’t have the Internet at hand, you can enable or disable the option using ussd requests: on. — *210*1#, off. — *210*0#.

Effective ways to find out a hidden number


There are alternative, very effective ways to find out who called from a hidden number.

If you receive a call and the caller is confidential, do not despair. Talk to him for at least 3 seconds and you will be able to identify the unknown intruder of your peace. Remember or write down the time of the dialogue, and then after about an hour, order in your personal account. The detailed report must display all calls.

Important! If the connection lasted more than 3 seconds, the call will certainly be displayed. This way you can always find out who bothered you.

There is another interesting scheme that helps a lot. It works when you have . If the attacker makes calls frequently, then it is enough to turn off the smartphone for a certain period of time. The subscriber will make a series of calls. After that, turn on your device and wait for the SMS. The message will display the CTN of the subscriber who called you.

Conclusion


There is an ethical side to using phone number hiding. This option can be used when you need to call centers that can then keep up - for example, network marketing, a real estate company, and so on. It is completely unethical to turn off the definition and pester someone with threats. Using the service in this way means demonstrating your weakness; in addition, such “crimes” are very easily solved, as we saw above. Use operator services wisely to be calm and enjoy mobile communication!

The appearance of the message “Number not identified” on the phone screen indicates that the caller has the option activated, due to which his number remains unknown. It is clear that this option can be abused not only by acquaintances, but also by numerous advertising agencies and even scammers. As a result, the subscriber does not know whether to answer the call, and does not have the ability to respond correctly to calls of this kind.

The question of how to find out a hidden number on Tele2 is quite simple to solve. To do this, the Tele2 operator offers to use the service of identifying deliberately hidden numbers, by connecting which you will declassify all telephone strangers. And then you can act at your discretion:

  • create a new contact in the phone book;
  • blacklist him;
  • call back with a request not to disturb you again;
  • as a last resort, report it to the police.

Features of the service

Firstly, the operator guarantees the correct operation of the service only in the home region. However, practice shows that incoming calls from other regions of the Russian Federation, including numbers of other mobile operators, in most cases are also detected.

Secondly, the option is suspended if there is not enough money in the account to withdraw the subscription fee. After replenishing the balance, detection of hidden calls resumes.
