Cancel Viettel: Close Your Vietnamese Line and Data Package the Official Way
Independent guide — no official affiliation with vietteltelecom.vn.
Short answer
In Viettel you can stop an auto-renewing data package instantly via the My Viettel app or the *098 USSD code; closing the number itself (hủy số) requires visiting a Viettel store with CCCD ID. Prepaid lines have no contract — the line drops 60 days after the balance runs out.

Cancel the package in the app
Find the active package and tap 'Hủy' (Cancel), then confirm. Auto-renewal stops immediately — the package keeps running until the end of its period.

Quick cancel via USSD
Open the dialer and dial *098; choose the package cancellation (hủy gói) option in the menu. A confirmation SMS arrives; the command is free.

Visit a store to close the number
Go to a Viettel store (Showroom) with the owner's CCCD ID and request 'hủy số'. You receive a written request record — keep it.

If you want to keep the number
To avoid losing the number, make a minimal maintenance top-up, or start an MNP request with the new operator: SMS TC <number> to 188; when the port completes the Viettel line closes.
02 — Frequently asked questions
Frequently asked questions
Does cancelling a data package cost anything?
No — package cancellation via My Viettel and *098 is free. Remaining data stays usable until the end of the period.
When does the line drop automatically?
On a prepaid line, after 60 days without a recharge the number is closed irreversibly; a recharge during that window keeps the line alive.
Is the postpaid (trả sau) process different?
Yes — trả sau lines have a contract. Call 1234 customer service or visit a store with ID; the remaining period bill and deposit refund are processed.
