Beeline has launched the “Unified Closed Group” service for corporate clients. How to view a closed VKontakte group How to protect yourself from subscriptions
In this review, we will try to understand the issue of how to disable services on MTS if they are charged. Sometimes it happens that a subscriber selects services that are incomprehensible to him, which he does not need, and he is charged money for them. This usually happens like this: the subscriber purchases a service package, which consists of certain paid and free services. After some certain time, the conditions change, and some of the services become paid. Thus, the subscriber begins to be charged more money than he planned. Sometimes it happens that the subscriber does not receive notification about this and he begins to incur unexpected expenses. To prevent this from happening to you, we recommend that you actively use where all operations with your number can be performed in a self-service format.
Sometimes, along with the activation of packages, paid subscriptions are activated. This can also happen at the time of receiving an SMS, and the user himself can accidentally or intentionally carry out the operation of connecting a subscription in the menu. As a rule, the subscriber forgets about such subscriptions, and funds begin to be withdrawn from his account. It may also be that someone close to the subscriber somehow activates a paid service or randomly subscribes to paid content, so be careful: always monitor the services available on your account.

How to disable MTS subscriptions on the Internet?
Sometimes some subscribers don’t even know that they are paying scammers for their subscriptions. For example, the following situation may arise: you receive a message with an offer to participate in some promotion and a request to send an SMS to a short number for this purpose; you send a message and make a subscription you don’t need!

This is the most effective way to prevent any paid subscriptions from being connected. This is especially true if a child uses the phone.
Disabling subscriptions by sending SMS
There is another option for disabling subscriptions: by sending SMS. In this case, a certain technical trick is used. The subscription comes from a specific number to which the subscriber subscribes. You can cancel this subscription not only by USSD request, but also by sending an SMS. This is the easiest way to get rid of intrusive content.
So, you should send an SMS to the number from which the newsletters come. Please indicate the value in the message text "STOP" or "STOP". If you successfully unsubscribe, you will receive a notification. Also, instead of the above values, you can enter a number «0» .
How to protect yourself from subscriptions?

After all, after unsubscribing, there is a chance that you will again be caught subscribing to content you don’t need, and the problem will return. But there is a solution! After all, it is possible to disable subscriptions forever, and we have already mentioned this above.
“Content Ban” service on MTS
This service can be activated from your operator by number 0890 or in the MTS communication salon. You can also access the connection in your Personal Account, and you can also use the SMS method.
This will help you save significantly on communications. Through your Personal Account, you can check all content services and disable those you do not need. Here everything is done with “one touch”, the controls are very convenient. Activation of the service is free, but for disconnection they charge one ruble.
To do this, you just need to follow some simple rules:
- Please note that when you connect to a certain tariff, some subscriptions may be automatically included, which become paid after a period of time, so be careful: keep an eye on the list of connected services and your account.

This will certainly prevent you from overspending on unnecessary services.
How to disable MTS paid services by calling the operator?
If you do not want to control your services yourself, you can leave this matter to the MTS customer support service. To do this, call 0890 . All of the listed actions that can be performed using the self-service office, commands and SMS can be performed for subscribers by the MTS support service operator (0890).

We hope our information helped you solve your problem. If not, then please leave all your questions in the comments!
On the VKontakte social network it is possible to create groups (see). They can be used for different purposes - uniting people by interests, promoting your business, etc. The developers gave the group administrator the opportunity to decide whether the published information will be available to all users or only to members. Depending on your desire, you can make an open or closed group (see). In the latter, all functionality will be available only to those subscribers who have subscribed to updates and were manually added to the list of participants by the community administrator (see). How can I view a closed VKontakte group??
This question worries many users. It is not always possible to undergo moderation to participate in a particular public (see). And information is desperately needed. Now we will try to figure out whether it is possible to somehow bypass the restrictions.
Is it possible to watch a closed group without joining?
If you try to view information that is published in a closed public, you will only see the general picture.
The following elements will be available to us:
- Information that this is a closed group
- Name
- Photo
- List of participants
- Administrator contacts (see)
How can we watch closed VKontakte groups? The simplest solution is to submit an application for membership and wait for its approval. To do this, click the “Submit Application” button.
After that, you need to wait until the group admin approves you. I would like to note right away that most public pages are interested in the number of their subscribers growing (see). Therefore, they try to approve incoming applications as quickly as possible.
You can even speed up this process - just write to the administrator. You will find a link to his page in the “Contacts” section.
We clearly discussed these points in the video lesson.
Thus, receiving restricted content is only available if you are registered on the social network (see) and gain access as a member.
View closed VKontakte page
Let's say you know the user id (see), and you are trying to access his page. As a result, you receive a message that access is limited (see).
How can we view user materials in this case?
There are two options here. If a user has restricted access for everyone, including his friends, then you will not be able to see his personal information.
It's another matter if the materials are available to friends. Here you must send him a request to add you as a friend. If he approves it, you will get access to the materials.
Is it possible to hack closed pages using services?
When trying to look for such services, we came across this project.
https://vk-open.ru/
As a result, we got this result.
As you can see, nothing worked, and we did not see the materials. Conclusion - services offering to watch a closed group for free do not work!
Conclusion
If you really need materials that are published in closed communities, it is best to contact the administrator directly. Explain to him your interest and argue why you should be provided with the necessary information.
After all, when I publish content on VKontakte, 99% of people want other users to see it. Therefore, you will probably be approved for access, and you will get everything you need.
