Caution: the new "service" Beeline

On the phone of his wife came such a text message from Beeline.
Verbatim:
/WAP/MMS , 10 - 2.95 . , , .


The balance check confirmed this. Operator said that it was downloaded 192Kb. At this time, his wife listened to the radio on the phone.
Understand - what was downloaded and where I could not. There is no such detailing in Beeline, and only Transferred is left in the phone - 6501, Accepted - 193895.

Those. there was a communication session, but I still did not understand what came to life on its own. (I assume: firmware update). But this is not so important.

It is important that I specifically turned off all the correct profiles of Bilan for access to any Internet on my wife’s phone. And this is confirmed by the phrase from the SMS "took advantage of the Internet / WAP / MMS from a non-customized phone."
')
I decided to clarify how this is possible with the operator. It turned out that Beeline now has such a new “service” - “Access to the Internet from an unconfigured phone”. And it is automatically connected to the campaign for all subscribers. (On my phone, Beeline also turned out to be connected. But there is a possibility - Only this one service can be turned off (through the operator)).

No, I understand someone this service is useful.
But I prefer to allow services available on the phone myself.
And so all the operators are trying any tricks to pull money from your balance.

And this service is another such “dangerous” trick.

Yes, to honor Beeline should be mentioned:
The money in the form of a bonus was returned, but only after the creation of the order through the operator “challenging this balance write-off”.

PS Thank you transferred to the blog Telecoms.
PPS Added that only this one service can be turned off. I think this will be useful for all Beeline subscribers.

Update: Here is another found a story on the topic- Link

A very strange case - on the conscience of the author. I did not find other evidence of this situation.
