Megafon operator services. Description of basic mobile operator services
If, for work or other reasons, you do not want to show your phone number when calling, MegaFon can offer a service that makes it possible to hide the caller's number. Many businesses desperately need this service. Many operators offer a wide variety of services that make communication more economical, convenient and efficient. Anti-AON is a service that guarantees complete anonymity of the caller.
Every person who uses a telephone understands that unless additional measures are taken and special options are not activated, your telephone number will always be visible to the person on the other end of the communication line. Some life or work situations require you to hide your number and make an anonymous call.
MegaFon and AntiAON service
Caller ID guarantees complete anonymity for the caller. The number will be hidden during the call. Please remember that this only applies to the call. When sending SMS and MMS messages, the subscriber will definitely see the sender's data. When activating Anti-AON, you should know that any call will be hidden from the subscriber, unless he has Super AON.
In addition, it is necessary to take into account that the number is completely hidden only for MegaFon users; subscribers of Beeline, MTS, Tele2 and others can see your number. When using a home regional network or roaming within the country, the number is guaranteed to be hidden from subscribers. Connection will require additional costs and daily payment for the service. If necessary, AntiAON can be used one-time, just order the service from the operator for an anonymous call.
The number can be hidden once on your home network; when calling to other countries or regions, you will need to connect to the full package with the appropriate payment.
If the subscriber has Super Caller ID activated, it will not be possible to hide the number. Using the services of an additional city number, it is impossible to connect AntiAON in any form.

Most cellular operators today have a wide range of various additional services that are provided by the company, both on a paid and free basis. And besides this, there are also dozens of favorable tariffs and much more. But today we would like to draw attention to the once inconspicuous service from the mobile operator Megafon - “AntiAON”, the name of which stands for anti-number identification number.
All Megafon subscribers know that if the client does not use any additional options, phone numbers will always be displayed for both callers. But if one of them activates the Anti-AON service on his number, then the subscriber he calls will see the inscription on the screen “Number hidden” or “Unknown subscriber”, that is, he will not know who is calling him. True, this rule does not always work. Megafon has a special additional option “Super Caller ID”, after connecting which the previous service is simply canceled, but not everyone knows about this and not everyone activates it.
How to connect AntiAON on Megafon?
If we talk about the region of Moscow and the Moscow region, then with the activation of the above-mentioned service everything is simple. There are two simple ways:
By sending an empty SMS message to the number 000105501. In the response SMS you will receive the result of the operation;
- using USSD combination *105*501#;
- in your personal account.
The AntiAON service is paid and has a connection cost of 10 rubles, as well as a subscription fee of 5 rubles per day. Attention, both the subscription fee and the price for connection may differ depending on the region of registration of the SIM card (FE, Siberia, Caucasus, North-West and others).
How to make a one-time call from AntiAON to Megafon?
If you want your number to be visible to a certain subscriber, that is, you want to make 1 call to him, then you can dial the following combination for this: *31# subscriber number and call key, after which the whole action will take place like a regular call . If you need this user to always see your phone number, then you need to save his contact in your address book immediately in the form of the above combination and that’s it.
How to disable AntiAON on Megafon?
Sometimes the moment comes when a mobile user has “played enough” with hiding his number from others and wants to deactivate the service, this can be done using the following method:
Dial the USSD command *105*501*0# on your mobile phone and the service will be disabled;
- or go to your personal Service Guide account on the company’s official portal.
It is also worth paying attention to the fact that it will not be possible to hide the number when sending SMS and MMS messages. This service does not cover such activities.
Well, that's all. See you soon and all the best!
A large Russian operator creates competitive conditions and offers users new opportunities. Megafon one-time AntiAON offers to hide your number for the subscriber. Let's take a closer look at examples of use, customization options, connection and cost of the proposal.
The service was developed to hide the Megafon subscriber number during an outgoing call. It is worth considering that the function does not interact with SMS messages. Stable operation of this option is guaranteed within the Megafon network; other operators can set alternative settings, which will be able to give out your number.
AntiAON does not require connection, which simplifies its use. Using the service requires entering a USSD request each time, which will be used to make a one-time call.
The cost of one number hiding as of 2019 is 7 rubles. If you make a large number of calls, this decision may hit your pocket. For everyday use, an alternative has been developed called Caller ID.
What does using AntiAON give:
- the subscriber will not see and will not be able to track your number;
- instead of the incoming number, the message “Number hidden” will be indicated;
- you will be able to maintain your anonymity;
- Maximum efficiency is achieved when calling other subscribers of the Megafon mobile operator.
However, a new solution was recently launched - Super Caller ID, which decrypts hidden numbers, allowing you to be as secure as possible from intruders. “Additional city number” and other analogues cannot work with AntiAON; you must first disable such functions. Detailed conditions can be found in the corresponding section on the official website.
The option was improved over time, and it became possible to activate the automatic use of the service. This feature eliminates the need to enter USSD codes and other methods of calling another subscriber many times, automatically enabling the hidden number mode.
Using the service for illegal purposes is punishable by the administrative and criminal codes. The telecom operator has the right to provide the necessary information to law enforcement agencies.
Having figured out what this service is, let’s consider how to connect it.
Megafon AntiAON – activate the option
Let's consider options for connecting one-time and repeated use of offers from Megafon. The one-time option is the most popular among subscribers. You can use it using the USSD request *31*number#. You must first prepare your phone; to do this, you must disable the transmission of your number. In different models and operating systems, this function may be located in different places, mainly in the call settings. After completing the above USSD request, the system will automatically connect to the specified number.
The option to hide a call from third-party operators depends on their settings; Megafon does not guarantee stable operation of the service with such contacts.
Permanent number hiding can be activated in several ways:
- by sending an SMS message with any text to the number 000105501;
- sending a request to the number *105*501#.
These are basic solutions that allow you to connect to the service directly from your mobile phone. A modern option in the form of a user’s personal account, Megafon offers not only to quickly activate the required function, but also to receive a quick report on financial costs, the number of minutes used, messages and Internet traffic. Here you can quickly enable or disable AntiAON.
If you don’t want to understand the settings or go through the registration process in your online account, call the operator’s toll-free number or contact customer service. Formulate your request in advance, indicate the correct name of the service required to connect and present your passport to confirm ownership of the SIM card.
Now each of your calls will be accompanied by the message “Hidden number” at the addressee. It is worth noting that frequent use of this function can hit your pocket. In this case, you should pay attention to the analogue “Caller ID”, to which you can quickly reconnect. If you no longer use the service, do not forget to disable it.
If you made anonymous calls one-time using a USSD request, you do not need to deactivate the service, since you did not activate it. You can verify this by reading the list of active options in Megafon’s personal account in the “Services” section.
The answer to the question “How to disable AntiAON on Megafon?” simple You can deactivate Anti-AON by using the USSD request *221# and returning the original call settings in your phone settings. Your number will be displayed immediately after the service is deactivated. Carefully monitor your balance when using this option; each call costs an additional 7 rubles; if you do not deactivate the service in time, you risk being left with a negative balance in your mobile account.
Don't want to receive calls from anonymous numbers? You can solve this problem by connecting the additional SuperAON service. However, this solution is not affordable for everyone.
There is an accessible analogue - a black list, into which you can add all hidden numbers. In this case, they will not be able to call your number.
The mobile operator Megafon is actively developing and, as of 2019, offers affordable and innovative solutions for subscribers, the use of which greatly simplifies working with the network. The company pays special attention to the personal account and other modern technological capabilities.
In the modern world, a person’s phone number often becomes a “target” for calls from hidden phones. Frequent calls from unknown sources not only distract from work, leisure or other useful activities, but also limit the subscriber’s choice of who to contact. “Super Caller ID” is a service from MegaFon, thanks to which the client can know which number is trying to reach him, regardless of whether the caller is trying to hide the data.
MegaFon “Super Caller ID” service: what is it?
After activating this service, a MegaFon subscriber never receives incoming calls with hidden numbers. When a “decrypted” call arrives, the number is displayed on the phone screen either in numbers in international format (starting with +7), or in text form if it is entered in the phone book in international format.
Moreover, if you activated the “Super Caller ID” service and began to notice that you are constantly receiving calls from the same supposedly hidden number, you can add it in this format (with hash marks) to your phone book. After this, when you receive an incoming call, not numbers will be displayed, but the contact name assigned in the book.
MegaFon private clients connect the service themselves using the interfaces presented below in the “How to connect” section. To add service users, a corporate client must send a corresponding application to MegaFon. You can fill it out at the customer service center or through the Service Guide system on the official website.
